Thread: Who Will Be UK's Clutch Player This Season?

Who will be UK's go-to-guy in the clutch this season?

Wow my first thought was Lamb. I don't know guys it could be a freshmen. I wish Jones could be that guy. BE a force down low like Patterson was.

I'd have to go with Lamb or Miller. However, I know Cal does like to go to his point guard at crucial times.

went with Lamb. Most consistent outside shot and can get to hoop where he has that neat little teardrop.

I'm interested in seeing how much Lamb has improved this season. I think he'll be counted on a lot early in the season.

I'd say it depends on the situation, if we need a 3, its def. Lamb or Miller, maybe even Wiltjer. If we are down 2, I would feel comfortable with any of our top 6 taking the shot, but if we are down 1, with 5 seconds left, no timeouts left, I think I'm going with Anthony Davis. I know he is a freshman with no experience but, he is a 6-11 stud, with guard skills, who is gonna guard him? Nobody, and definitely not gonna block his shot, I think he has the best shot of scroing or kicking to the open man, but I would love to see Miller or Jones step up and take over the leadership role this year.

Go with Lamb, more consistent outside shot and can get to basket with that little teardrop.

I'd say Gilchrist or Lamb. I chose Lamb because every time he shoots i feel its going in and he has even said he loves clutch moments before. Espically if we need a three its Lamb. Gilchrist did show clutch tendencies in high school though and he is super motivated to win.

I agree about Gilchrist. He put his team on his back a lot last season. He's a winner.

Miller will be clutch for us this season. His experience will be a team asset he has played in almost every situation. Miller and Lamb will be the one's to take a clutch shot this year but if its inside look for TJ he is motivated to win and determined.

Good post. I agree. I think Cal will lean on his experienced guys a lot this season.

Obviously a trick question. And most people here fell for it ... even myself. I voted Darius - thinking his senior knowledge and refined talent will pull through. But, it's Miller that's going to get us sparked when we need it and calmed when we're frustrated.

Davis has few votes. But, I think it's going to be The Lob that saves our butts in a close game. Maybe from Teague (who has the least votes), maybe from Miller or Lamb. But, I think it's Anthony Davis that's going to be scoring the bucket.

Had to go with Michael Kidd-Gilchrist. i can only hope that the NCAA goes with a 2 and out or 3 and out. This team will be even better next year!

The talent level here would just be plain sick!
