Then tune in UK vs AR. Don't care for either, but I think this is the up tempo ball many Tiger fans are missing. We are now so far removed from relevance it is just saddening.

shhhhh. don't say that too loudly. You will awaken the real bullies of the board. they will interrogate you and ask you exactly what style we had.

You can't run with the slowest point guard in the country.

you could if you played organized basketball. its not all about point guard speed at all times. outlet passing and passing in general can determine how you can run as well.

Shhhh...don't let that get back to coach Pastner, he'll say "winning is NOT a birth-right"! #CLUELESS

That's Arkansas pushing the pace. They're in the top 10 in the country in shots per game. We take more shots per game than Kentucky and we have more possessions per game too.

He is right about that, of course. As for style of play, I personally like all kinds: fast-break, Princeton's half-court and all between. They can all be beautiful if effective and ugly if not. That said, if I were a coach, I would choose whichever style fit my personnel and is most likely to win. Winning is what true Tiger fans want most. Of course, some of our closet SEC spectators, being primarily interested in being entertained may prefer acrobatic exhibitions.
