#14 Luke Hancock

[DeepValue]

This will be a good pro audition for Luke because Kentucky has NBA type players. I'm a Luke fanboy but feel skeptical about this game. I've got Kentucky winning and Luke struggling a bit. Hope that's not the case.

Skip Bayless on "First Take" said that Luke was a "really good spot-up shooter" but wouldn't be able to get those open looks against Kentucky's athletes.

Made me shake my head that somebody who gets paid over $1MM a year to opine about sports on television could be so ignorant.

Louisville plays mostly through Russ Smith because that's what Pitino wants to do, but we all know Luke is capable of being much more than just some guy who hangs out behind the 3-point line.

He's the best passer on Louisville's team by a mile, rebounds pretty well and is at least a serviceable defender.

I hope Luke dunks on Julius Randle's head tonight and the "experts" call him "surprisingly athletic." It's reverse racism, and it's blatant.

Luke shouldn't have to prove himself to anyone at this point, dude's the reigning FF 4 MOP for pity's sake. I'm not sure a guy like TOC realized what GMU was losing.

I'm a Luke fanboy...

This could be the biggest understatement ever made on our boards.

Undeniably non-black

I would pass out laughing if Barkley used this as a Luke descriptor on national TV.

I hate listening to Skip Bayless talk - that is all.

As Luke is undeniably non-black, Bayless is undeniably non-intelligent.

 

[GMUgemini]

As Luke is undeniably non-black, Bayless is undeniably non-intelligent.

His job is to say stupid stuff to piss fans off. He is very good at his job.

Prediction: Their will be some serious cocking going on tonight

 

[KAOriginal]

Luke not only has a game, but he makes things happen and makes those around him more effective....

 

[KAOriginal]

Kid has some game...but he makes things happen for himself and others...natural "basketball IQ"..tough to find that...

 

[mason lawyer]

Let's go Louisville! Luke!!!!

 

[EXpatriot13]

Luuuuuuke for three!

 

[DeepValue]

They left Luke wide open for a three, he drained it, and Calipari threw his arms up and looked at his guys like are you crazy?!

 

[mason lawyer]

He loves the big stage!

 

[EXpatriot13]

Two fouls on Luke with 14min to go in half.
