A few weeks ago, UK deputy athletic director DeWayne Peevy told KSR listeners he had been in contact with the Golden State Warriors in an effort to get the team to Rupp Arena. His idea? An All-UK vs. Golden State matchup for the annual Kentucky Alumni game.
At first glance, the idea seems like a blowout in the making, especially considering this Warriors team is considered arguably the greatest team in NBA history.
When you break down the numbers, however, Kentucky’s superstars match up extremely well against the Warriors.
We saw the Warriors run through the NBA Playoffs like a knife through butter, losing just one game in 17 contests en route to their second championship in three years.
