He's a hard player and very smart psychologically, a factor I think we've lost in basketball from the 80s-90s. His acting is hilarious, and he's making you lose your goddamn mind.

All of which is incredibly entertaining

No doubt Ellis plays street ball but maybe that's how you get to Kentucky. Not that Cinci will win

I agree

ETA: Eat shite Ellis. Take another foul and go sit your sorry arse on the bench.

No he's been arrested multiple times and fights all the time because that's all the kid knows.


He's a product of the environment he was raised in. That's a fact.


But to watch some guy on a message board constantly talk shite about the kid is getting old.

Towns just got a foul for being too big for Ellis to shove.

It was hilarious listening to the announcers try to excuse his behavior. I hate it that bad things happened in his life but he is extremely fortunate to get a free ride to a university to play basketball. He should grow up and act like the fortunate person he has become.

I've never wanted Kentucky to win a basketball game so bad.

Honestly I think the last 2 fouls called on Ellis have been bad. I'm guessing the refs hate him too

I can't stand it when people try to excuse someone's actions because they had a rough time growing up.

Lots of kids, especially some of these kids on the court, have been raised in shitty environments.

Eric Bledsoe was homeless, living out of a car, for part of HS. He seemed to handle it alright on the court.

What's with this camera angle? They've done it for every game of the tournament.

Completely agree with this, but he is a solid player.

I'm not going to totally disagree but I'm not upset about them being called.

I didn't even know who the guy was until he drew a foul and started laughing and screaming about it.

Normally, yes. According to his stats anyway. I've only seen him play one other time and that was their last game. I didn't know that was the same guy until today.
