We might deserve it from a lifelong North Carolinian and UNC graduate. We certainly don’t deserve it from a contrarian, attention *****, jackass from Nicholasville.

It’s amazing watching basketball players routinely hitting 3-pointers in these games - many times without splendid offense to give them open looks. Just guys shooting and hitting shots. Like wtf
Playing tight vs playing loose
It helps when their coach doesn’t get in their head instructing them to drive non stop during practice and then act like a maniac with his hair on fire on the sidelines yelling non stop during games.
You wanna know what mind-f*cks good shooters?
Insisting over-and-over that they look to drive first on the catch rather than shoot in rhythm. Or worse, look to force feed the post. It leads to a shooter second-guessing if they should just let it fly.
The only thing that makes it worse is course-correcting and publicly admonishing the shooter for not shooting enough.
Calipari 101: How to ruin the psyche of a shooter…
Houston has some dawgs. Nobody you have every heard of but lead pipe carrying BMF’s.
Another thing that helps is running sets occasionally. That way a defender isn’t always standing there waiting for our guys to get to their spots out of the weave. We do nothing on offense - that’s why we are so easy to scout and are always grinding out 65 points on our leather asses once tournament season comes around. The players nut up under pressure, miss ft’s, throw bad passes as a result.
If Cal get kicked out in the 1st half of that debacle, we win by 15. True story.

The Clown would love to go roller skating.
Might even see if I can dig up my old Speed Skates. (The Clown could prolly still tear it up out there)
Takes me back to my youth; Tearing through the slow folks, backwards, getting the whistle and flashlight, with a stern warning.
Getting kicked out for smoking heaters in the bathroom, dumping a cup of bearing balls on the floor, making out by the arcade with Susan Williams.

If LSU avoids major sanctions to basketball they'd be smart to look at Sampson. His past issues are irrelevant now.
Doron Lamb looks better and better as the Cal years go on.
Collins announced he's coming back.
Texas kid and the 2023 FF is in Houston.
LFG!!!!!!

I kind of want to make out with a woman named Susan at a roller rink now.
Thanks, Clown, for giving me goals.

Yes I’d agree with all of this, but when I say by design I’m being sarcastic because even in design the reality is he wants layups and rebounds.
His 2 designed plays are a down pick that all defenses read and beat our guys to the spot, or sticking Grady in a corner and running PnR action that way in which he wants action to the basket but if Grady’s guy helps he is there and open.
Those are his designs.
Amzingly watching St Peters you’d see Murray guarding up tight, as did UK, and then BOOM they ran back cuts which were wide open. Then after that worked they ran down pick action and amazingly skinny Ron Jeremy popped Murray for a dagger 3, just like he did us in a moment that mattered.
Just intelligent and situationally aware basketball.
Cal couldn’t dream of that type of action! Which is nothing but sad at this point.
Don't like it.
Really wish Pitino would have used a couple timeouts there. Gotten more control of the game. Push the ball into our bigs down low for some high percentage looks, and to get a chance to make it to the free throw line. Slow the game down on the other end and really slow the tempo down on defense.
Go Cats!

Hank - for a 14 YO it was the pinnacle. She was pretty “developed” for her age as well.
Sparty folds late after they stop doing what got them the lead. Amazing how that works.
UNC advancing while I sit here and stew makes me hate Calipari even more. Goddamnit!
Gawd! He sucks ***. **** him…

All of the sudden I am becoming a huge Gonzaga fan because they may be the last real threat to take out Duke.
Zags can just go ahead and win this thing. I’m not going to like it but I’ll like it much better than some of the other options left. Or even Houston but not sure they really have the juice to win it all.
Watched Duke - MSU at a buddy’s house who is a huge MSU fan. It’s always amazing to me watch other teams play with their homer fans but with an objective eye. I bet I heard, “we’re done, it’s over” 20x during the game”. I’m like, “you’re down 5 with 14 to go…plenty of time”. Reminded me of me!
Also, Mich st fans aren’t all in on Izzo as you’d expect.
Great game, Duke made shots at end. My buddy and I agreed they are our #1 team to root against going forward.
