Davis’ New Teammates
With the Number 1 overall selection comes a lot of responsibility. Anthony Davis is no exception. He will make a ton of money, but he will have a “not so good” team to work with. Here’s Anthony’s new squad – Hornets Roster 2011-12 Roster NUM PLAYER POS HT WT DOB Prior to NBA/Home Country YRS [...]
Davis the Hornet

Rondo Leads Celtics
Game 7 between the surprising Philadelphia 76ers and the Boston Celtics was a solid back and forth match that featured one former Cat hammering in the nails to the Sixers postseason coffin. Rajon Rondo has been everywhere this postseason. Triple-doubles, ejections and now clutch shooting. Rondo took great pleasure in finishing off the Sixers last [...]

Bledsoe Breaks Out
If you have been watching the NBA Playoffs (and that may be a big if) then you have noticed how well the Wildcats have been representing Big Blue Nation. Rajon Rondo has been killing it – 15 points, 13 assists, 6 rebounds and nearly 3 steals a game – leading the Celtics to what could [...]
Oh Rondo!
Wow, what a move. Rondo finished with 15 points and 15 assists in the Game 4 loss to the Sixers – series tied at 2. Look for more Rondo alerts as he continues to terrorize teams in the playoffs.
Kidd-Gilchrist’s New Shoes
What do Michael Kidd-Gilchrist and LeBron James have in common? Plenty of things. Their ability to play any spot on the court, stifling defense, ability to get to the basket and finish… and now their shoes! Kidd-Gilchrist getting the royal treatment at Nike (see picture below) Looks like young Michael will be grabbing his [...]
John Wall’s Crib
Ever wonder what life would be like if you were a number 1 pick in the NBA? Or maybe just be pals with one? Here’s a sneak peak of the life that former Wildcat John Wall has been living. Pretty sweet place if you ask me. Although, I was hoping for an indoor Koi Pond… [...]
Did You See This?
Bizarre scene in Denver last night. Near the end of the second half of the Lakers-Nuggets Game 4 Playoff game a fan walked out on the court in the middle of a play… Makes me think back to the good ole days… Mike Davis – anytime I ever see something like that I can’t [...]
Calipari and Billy G?
This was a shot at the Derby on Saturday… Cal chatting with Billy Gillispie..Would have loved to be a fly on the wall for that encounter!
UK IU No More
Two of next season’s top ranked teams will NOT be meeting during the upcoming regular season. That’s right, the Hoosiers and Wildcats could not come to an agreement to play this upcoming season – thus discontinuing their long standing rivalry. The largest sticking point between the two schools appears to be the two coach’s disagreement [...]
Bennett Cuts Florida
Shocking News on the recruiting trail. Top ranked power forward Anthony Bennett has cut Florida from his list narrowing it down to just three! Bennett’s NEW Top 3: (in no particular order) 1. Kentucky 2. Oregon 3. UNLV Many believed Mr. Bennett had Florida as the frontrunner… sorry Gators. Everyone should know where Bennett plans [...]
Rondo Returns
Fresh off his SUSPENSION, Rajon Rondo returned in Game 3 of the 2012 NBA Playoffs with redemption on his mind. The Celtics and the Hawks went in to overtime and needed a big contribution from the former Wildcat point guard. He didn’t disappoint finishing with 17 points, 14 rebounds and 12 assists – his 7th [...]
“Welcome to the White House”
They have the trophy, the banner and now the President of the United States of America welcoming them to the most iconic building in the country. Friday, President Obama (who picked UNC to win it all) brought the Cats up to the White House to congratulate them on their 8th National Championship. Wildcats in the [...]
Wildcats to the White House
The National Championship perks continue as John Calipari and the Kentucky Wildcats will be honored at the White House this Friday. The Cats are obviously honored to get this extremely unique opportunity to meet the President and get a tour of our nation’s capital. Maybe we will see if the President will play a little [...]
On Guard
Believe it or not, Marquis Teague going pro might be the biggest loss for the Wildcats. He may not have been the best player in the class, but is certainly the most important. Cal has found depth at every position so far, except at guard. Ryan Harrow, Twany Beckham and Archie Goodwin seems like a [...]
Kanter and the Crowd
After the Jazz clinched the #8 seed last night at home Enes Kanter had a few things to say… This speech reminds me of another great Kanter moment…
