I was in a similar boat last year. I think I've hit a point in basketball writing where I have the team I cover, but I have the team I watch for pure entertainment, too. Kind of like trying to balance the line between fan and objective observer as best as I can. For full disclosure, this is normally Michigan hoops, but they've been so hard to watch this year that I've pretty much tuned them out.
Yeah I need some of this. Your recent article hit home because when I watch UofL and UK I’m thinking about lineups and expectations, and I struggle to watch other teams when I don’t have that same context. I do enjoy Alabama a bit, maybe that will be my side piece.
Thanks for this. As someone who writes about Kentucky and Louisville basketball, I feel like this was written specifically for me this season.

I am noting that I read from one of the drab gray states. I suspect I may be the only one, which is why it's drab and gray.
