UK was extremely impressive in the 2nd half. Their help defense was phenomenal. What I have seen from Liggins over the past month on the defenisive side has been nothing short of spectacular.

Harrelson is a dark-horse MVP. MVP, not the best player on the team, but IMO the Most Valuable Player! Without Kanter and no back-up, Josh has been playing simply marvelous. The Cats have done an incredible job in finding him for easy buckets when the defense goes to help. He has rebounded extremely well, but more important to me, he is making an excellent kick-out pass to start the Cats running offense.

I agree with all of this.

Harrellson is not even close to being the most talented player on this team....
but he plays within his game and doesn't make mental mistakes.
His rebounding and ability to get the ball over the defense is IMO why Cal keeps him on the floor.
The offense that comes his way is simply a plus.

Also...
the better he does on offense the more respect he gets in opposing coaches defensive schemes.
If he keeps scoring in double-figures it will eventually lead to TJ getting a lot more 1-on-1 opportunities.
