^ That's the real story. Gabriel & SKJ coming collectively led to Lee transferring and, since they didn't develop enough to have one more trustworthy big, we were what we were. God bless Humphries for his game today, but we were just one big short.

There's a hole in my basement ceiling. An old
iPhone I surf on is in pieces. Luckily, it hit a step tread, or it would have made a second hole in the wall.

My kids are crying, partly because of the loss and partly because of my behavior.

I wouldn't be shocked if my wife doesn't speak to me for a week.

I hate this ****.

We lost the game when Willis missed a wide open 3 in the corner that would have tied it in the last few minutes. That drops, we win. We got the look we wanted, we just didn't hit it. Good run. I think we were one player away. Still almost pulled it off after getting one of the most atrocious whistles in NCAA history in the first half. Guess Higgins is the guy the NCAA calls upon when they want to stop a Kentucky run in the tournament. He must have had the flu in 2012.

Ultimately, we had to rely on Briscoe playing out of position every night and Willis playing way over his head because Gabriel was not what Cal thought he was -- an oversize 3 who could also be a stretch 4 -- and SKJ was not a WCS clone, or even playable.

So Go Gamecocks, or whatever.

You're a stupid mother****er. Maybe this breathing thing just isn't for you.

Ha, what did i say that was stupid? The Calipari era has been excrutiating outside of 2012. Two Duke titles, 2 freaking CONNECTICUT titles at our expense, louisville matched us with a championship, and now one for north carolina. Just wait till next monday when the carolina coronation is complete. We gave them a title. Yup, been a great ride. 2015.

For the first time in Calipari's 8 years, we miss two straight Final Fours.

Now, we lose 7 of our top 8 players, and -- barring any grad transfers -- our rotation next year will feature all freshmen and Wenyen Gabriel.

I fckng hate sports.

Still proud of the team. Guys were looking downright 4-seed ordinary, and then slowly it started coming together. They pieced bad wins together, then started turning them into good wins, then became a lot more than we thought they were. Gonna be a difficult season to process. There was a roller coaster of expectations from the run-and-gun version we saw in December to the hard-nosed defensive team we just finished watching. I'm proud of them. There are a lot of questions. What happened to SKJ? What happened to Gabriel? Or even what happened to Monk? But I'm proud of the ride they just went on. I just know it could've been more.

I assume "13" is your age, because you clearly don't remember the end of Tubby or Billy Gillispe if you think the past few years have been "excruciating."

Losing with a chance to go to the final four sucks. Losing in the opening weekend sucks more.

Be mad if you want, but try harder not to be a ******* moron.

Shut the f*** up.

(If you look at how things are going right now, and think about it, you'll understand I'm not being a dick, I'm giving you good advice right now.)

Whew boy those 10 years before Cal sure were great! We won a bunch of titles and none of our rivals did, sweet!

March is a fickle *****. Cal has taken us on one of our best stretches in history. Get some perspective you dolt.

I wish the hunger games were real so I could volunteer as tribute and when it starts just stand there like a stupid jackass doing nothing and get a swarm of AIDS bees to fly up my *** while I get shot in the head by an exploding arrow which malfunctions and I don't die then someone comes and saving private Ryan's me by stabbing me in the heart while whispering "shhhhhhh" in my ear as I die otherwise alone.

Nobody gives a f*** what you say. And, by the way, you're a GD moron.

Please get your ENTIRE head in front of the shotgun next time.

Thanks in advance.

Same thing happened to me when we lost to MSU after Sparks rattled the three in. She will forgive you in about 24 hours. **** man. You are a good dad. Hang in there.

I'm exhausted and spent. This was the first game lost since my little girl was born, was hoping she was my good luck charm - would've been a cool story to tell her. Oh well, **** sports, especially this one. Wish I was a fan of a less random and difficult sport, being a college basketball fan is way too stressful, wish I like football or golf or some **** like that. Will be avoiding ESPN for the next month.

Can't wait for work tomorrow. Have to put on a happy face and gab about a "good game" with a bunch of casual basketball followers. Goddamnit.

So Oregon or Gonzaga gonna beat UNC right??

:pray:

Not all that angry atm actually. Just numb to what all just happened.

bottom line we really needed more from Monk to win this one besides some late hero threes.

Sucks

This is hilarious. Everybody in this thread has given up on cal how many times? Youre just defensive because of a heartbreaking loss to a rival.

I'm just going to say this:

- If I heard that stupid silverspoon ***** Grant Hill say one more time we should get the ball to Bam- who got stripped approximately 45x, I was driving to Memphis to backhand him.

- Willis didn't hit a big shot his entire career. Did a great job on Maye, too.

- Great postseason, Monk! It's great having guys like Booker, Murray and Monk who decide not to show up in March.

- The refs were horrible.

- Props to Hawkins, Briscoe and Humphries. Good efforts.

How about just ignoring that SDcorksucker instead of constantly quoting him?

Zone was a bucket of ice water on our run. Up 5 and on the cusp of putting it away. Completely mind fuked us.

Zak. *******, what a game big guy. He and Hawk are the only reason we had a chance in the second half. Just balled out the final half of the 1st. ******** they didn't have the storybook ending to their season/career.

Monk pulled a few big shots out his *** to keep us in it, but I want to see that behind the music on what happened to him from March 1st on. Extended shooters slump? Not fully buying that. He needed to do more to find his shot tonight. Maybe next year ::rolleyes::

Hate being ref guy, but NC2A *has* to clean up their officiating. Just a mockery of the game to have someone like Higgins completely harpoon a tilt of that magnitude.

Willis had so many momentum baskets go in and out. Just off-target.

Lot of second guessing on that end of game play. Timeout? Just not in the right place to even give it a thought.

The 12 year old me would have been crying after that Maye bucket.

***, we had it boys.:chairshot::mad:[sick]:cry:

Did we have to get beat by Maye? That ugly, scary-looking, bushy-eyed Brian Peppers look-a-like? I hate having that weird-looking mother effing ogre in my mind's eye.

Could it be we are seeing that it takes more than one year to develop into a consistent lockdown perimeter shooter?

This is hilarious. Everybody in thipts thread has given up on cal how many times? Youre just defensive because of a heartbreaking loss to a rival.

Nobody is defensive, and nobody, except yourself, has given up on Cal, who has pretty much been kicking *** for almost a decade here.

But then again, you're clearly a water head, so I'll just show you the door, wish you good-bye, and say a little prayer (that you run head on into a semi-truck.) The gene pool thanks you.
