VOLS Basketball: Lofton Q&A

I'm not sure who Luke Winn is, but this is a pretty good Q&A - not just the normal questions. Chris is a smart guy. He knows he still has to play against Florida & LSU - look at the love he gives 3 different Florida players and 1 from LSU.

Luke Winn: I've been asking a few of the other Blog Q&A subjects to pick their college dream team, but I wanted to change it up for you. In a hypothetical situation, if you couldn't take the last shot in a game, what current college player not at Tennessee would you pick to take a three-pointer?

Chris Lofton: I'm thinking here. I would have said J.J. Redick or Adam Morrison last year. But right now, for a three, I'd take Lee Humphrey from Florida. He's the highest-percentage [long-range] shooter in the SEC, and he knocks down open shots.

LW: And what about if the clutch shot had to happen in the paint? Who would you take then?

CL: If I go inside, I'm going to either Joakim Noah, Tyler Hansbrough or Greg Oden. Noah plays so hard for 40 minutes; Hansbrough is a beast down low -- they beat us in November in New York -- and Oden is killing Division I basketball right now with one hand.

LW: Last question. You get hounded by opposing defenses. Who would you say is the best on-the-ball defender you've had to face in the past two seasons?

CL: Probably Corey Brewer [from Florida]. He's long and athletic. Either him or Garrett Temple from LSU. He's like Brewer -- long and athletic.

LW: But you still think you can drill shots over any of those guys ...

CL: That's the goal.
