My concern is that in the D-League, nobody cares about W/L

So is there a Europe trip this year, or are we just hosed?

Unfortunately Baker & Adams couldn't get themselves on the court. We mighta finished very strong otherwise.

Of course Pope is a good coach. But he's not a great coach, and KY is looking to blow past any previous standard for
