Ok buddy. You convinced me. Love those classy hogs now. I’ve seen the light.

Hey Yo! Aike. How'd your formula end up doing? I can't wait to see it again next season.

 

[UKUGA]

So remind me: has CBB eliminated the “intentional foul” and replaced then with flagrants?

 

[Cat in ga]

Keep running Banchero starting to cramp

 

[Crawfords Corner]

lol What a brick

 

[dvillecatfan]

Would love to see Arkansas and Houston play. Would be intense.

No intentional. Flagrant 1 and 2.

 

[hotelblue]

tech really working hard on the boards. no lack of effort on their part.

 

[Crawfords Corner]

Between Bryson W and Obanor they have 2200 and 1600 points scored in college.


* sorry thats 2100 for Williams, not 2200.

My wife, who never watches ball, just said (while working on her business on the laptop): “Do those guys talking want that one team to win? Sounds like it.”

 

[ScottGreene22]

I really hope Scheyer can’t coach a lick

 

[EliteBlue]

I’m not sure. They went through a stretch where any foul from behind like that with a vulnerable player was a flagrant. Didn’t really matter if you got ball or not. That one was a little close.

In the air...maybe. But with him having not even left the ground (and it was called on the floor) I doubt they viewed him as vulnerable. And w it not bing in the open court and a little to the side which is how he had a whole arm across the ball, they prob didn’t see it as a clear path foul.

but I hear you. They definitely got “intentional” happy there for a few years

 

[Crawfords Corner]

Terrible shot selection out of the time out by Tech

Looks like Brad Stevens hopefully can’t coach like him.

I swear these past 3 months have been so tough on me mentally and also my family. My uncle is going through dementia issues that are causing me and my family to be stressed to the max. The one thing that helped me get through these tough times was sports, preferably UK-related. Two hours twice a week to just unwind forget about everything.

Now that Kentucky is out, Im trying to get into March Madness without them in the tourney. It has been helping a little bit but as I sit here watching these tourney games and pull for teams Id rather advance than others, I find myself wondering at times if I am jinxing certain teams just by watching those games and I end up turning them off lol. Yeah ridiculous thought I guess its just the mood I am in.

 

[TheDude73]

Raftery not at all trying to hide it:

“Oh yeah, there you go!” (just before Nacho took and missed that shot).

Fair enough.

Don’t blame yourself.

Sad thing is I get you completely. Hang in there.

 

[hotelblue]

tech must have half their points out of their offense. they don’t move great without the ball but they’ve out worked duke on the glass so far.

 

[dvillecatfan]

Woulda been nice if LSU had got Musselman instead of Wade.

 

[hotelblue]

tech’s offense really has been isolating. they don’t get anything secondary. they’re just getting most the loose balls.

 

[RunninRichie]

''nice cross-screen'-Raf on texas tech. Tech player then misses a hook shot ''GREAT DEFESNE AND HOW ABOUT....SEALIN IT!''-Raf after duke player puts a hand up.

 

[UKUGA]

Nobody seems to be watching Houston.

Some guy picked up his 3rd foul w/about 10 minutes left in the half.

We will see what happens down the stretch.

Wade should have coached the tournament.

 

[Crawfords Corner]

A 43-foot rebound lol

 

[RunninRichie]

tech jacking 3s

 

[TheDude73]

Obanor reminds me of Hopkins.

Im watching Houston vs zona instead of duke vs TT, and yeah i saw that

 

[mhroe1984]

Come on Tech run these fools!

 

[RunninRichie]

Obanor reminds me of Hopkins.

That will be Hopkins for UL in 3 years. Sad but true.

 

[Crawfords Corner]

Another Forward that's better than Keion Brooks.

Obanor would have been a perfect fit for Oscar Tshiebwe

 

[dvillecatfan]

That's the one I'm watching. Their gritty.

 

[JerseyCat84_rivals57050]

Did Chris Beard age 20 years at TT?

 

[UKUGA]

Im watching Houston vs zona instead of duke vs TT, and yeah i saw that

Good. Keep us posted

 

[Crawfords Corner]

That's the one I'm watching. Their gritty.

I love that team. With Sasser they'd be one of the top 3 teams left in the tourney, if not the best.

 

[RunninRichie]

Raf is salivating.

 

[UKUGA]

Hmmmm.

Nice passive swipe for the +1
