    Steph Curry Finals MVP Watch - The Steph Curry Coronation is complete -Steph wins Finals MVP with GOAT Performance

    If you are the best shooter ever. Your career free throw percentage should be higher than 82%. Not a whole lot we can use to compare eras. But that part of the game never changed. And 82% is good, but not close to Steph’s 91% for his career.

    Gonzaga @ St Mary’s

    Your high school held 3,500? That’s the attendance for the game.

    Gonzaga @ St Mary’s

    Woof. Terrible half for Gonzaga. St Mary’s playing well. Really good defense

    Teams You Think KY Hopes To Avoid Come March

    So are you more focused on teams that have size at the 4 and 5 then? Because Oscar still gets his numbers against good big men.

    Teams You Think KY Hopes To Avoid Come March

    Lots of teams with size named. As a Zags fan, I’m scared of Oscar. Has size really been what has hurt Kentucky this year?

    Gonzaga only favored by 10 at San Francisco tonight

    He’s going to be the difference if they win a title. His 3 pt shooting was not a threat early in the season. All the big time schools they played in OOC were begging him to shoot the 3. Now he’s hitting 45%, which gives more room for Timme to operate down low. He needs to be more of a dog on...

    Yes, Gonzaga’s loses in the tournament come when they are at a length/athleticism disadvantage. It’s why, even as a Zags fan, I agree that their conference doesn’t prepare them for the tournament. St. Mary’s, USF and BYU are good teams, but they don’t exploit Gonzaga’s potential weak points...

    Ya there has been a decline in true home and away OOC series. I think part of it has to do with the increase in the number of Conference games by P5 conferences. Also it has been historically difficult to get Big time schools to agree to come to Gonzaga. Schools aren’t super interested in...

    Just to be clear. I don’t care who is the better coach. I’m not trying to make that argument. A guy made a clearly bogus claim and I called him out on it. That’s it

    I counted all teams from Mid Major conferences. I did not count Big East teams, that would be crazy. I care very little about comparing Few to Cal. I just enjoyed proving to the dude that he was wrong.

    Fine, I had to go back and do the math. Calipari has 85 losses against Mid Majors and Few has 64. Happy now?

    Not lately. Cal's got 2 losses in the last 3 seasons. Few's only loss is to #15 ranked BYU on the road.

    I think his point was that Kentucky sucked last year. Had nothing to do with playing in the SEC. Over the last 5 seasons, if Gonzaga played in the SEC, they'd still have made the tournament every year.

    Upper Tier Quad 1 True Road Games

    The Big 10 has been considered a great conference for years now. Tons of quality road environments in conference. But they haven't won an NC in over 20 years.

    UK #2 in Kenpom

    Exactly, some times it just happens. You can't win them all. I think in the Bama game, Gonzaga didn't look like the better team that night. Against Duke, you thought that both of those teams were really excellent top level teams. It was a fantastic game. And against Texas, UCLA, and to an extent...
