Looks like the Northern Kentucky guy passed up an open shot 

nah, it was a terrible pass to the shooter in the corner. if he hits him with a good pass it's a routine catch-and-shoot three, but by the time he hauled in the pass he was smothered by bigger defender.

No respect for AJ Soprano in the USA jersey.  TKO'd In the 3rd round.

damn it. i had the game on record but i turned it off because it was such a blowout. now i missed all the action. 

[Underdog 28625]

Just call the game. 

[PittsburghTiger 6181]

If Gonzaga loses tonight should they still be a #1 seed? I would think that their schedule is not among the top-10 in strength.

dumb people in the stands. empty the gym, finish the game.

[Wally Pryor 5261]

Interesting contrast coming up...SF wants to shoot with 5 seconds left on the shot clock. Zags want to shoot within 5 seconds of a possession.

Yeah, AJ got it.

 

[Wally Pryor 5261]

This is some weird shit at Bryant.

They're up by 6 touchdowns and the game hasn't been called?

Shirtless guy FTW

No reason to continue with it giving the score and situation.  But the Wagner coach is ready if they play. 

[PittsburghTiger 6181]

Staten Island v Rhode Island for this brawl in the stands

coach comes back out wearing a different jersey.

[Underdog 28625]

Dammit.  I need to hit the sack( not Johnny) but want to see how this ends. 

[Dr Fear 1268]

So they seriously kicked out all the black people and let No Shirt and Dream Team stay and get closer to the opposing bench?

Home court advantage.

[Wally Pryor 5261]

I'd forgotten that SF has a key player named Cousy.

[PittsburghTiger 6181]

Now it just turns into the NBA all star game with no really serious play, which is not a bad thing.

[Wally Pryor 5261]

You think SF knows Timme's game?

He's non-existent.

Who is SF? Are you meaning St. Mary's? Kuhse?

[LTtxfan 49185]

Watching St.Mary's play old man YMCA ball against Zags is funny as hell... 😋

Yeah, St Mary's. Stupid me.

I know it's that spelling but the pronunciation over the air is what rings in the ear.

Lulz. I read it as "quit" the color scheme in Vegas.  

You don't quit anything in that city. And if you've ever been to The Orleans you'd fully appreciate that.

I need to learn how to read.

[Wally Pryor 5261]

The Orleans has always had that flowery horn.  Sounds like a cop car in Twickenham with COVID.

South Dakota State could be a dangerous low seed team for someone. It feels like every one of their players shoots 50% from 3. I exaggerate, but not that much. I wouldn’t worry about them for Texas. I don’t worry about any first round match up, really, simply because of the defense, and because of the challenge of the Big 12. Don’t have the same feeling about the second round, but won’t be too long until we get to find out.

Holy fuck, me too! Although thankfully they went full screen way sooner this time than with that debacle. I regret to say that game was way more important to me, as well. I’ve always been a Longhorn fan first, but as a sports fan, I desperately needed a championship - ANY championship, of a team i was a legitimate long time fan of.

Growing up a UT/Houston sports fan in the early 70s meant a whole lot of heart breaks on that account. And here it was finally about to happen and this bullshit takes center stage. 

Putting it in perspective for that Rockets-Knicks Game 5: we as Houston sports fans were a traumatized people, still wounded from the  (Oilers-Buffalo) Comeback 2 years prior. Gordie Howe and the Aeros were the height of accomplishment and even they were defunct. Having the championship game preempted by OJ felt like yet again snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. 

Fortunately Hakeem saved us from all that.

Whoever draws them in the first round can pack lightly.

[Wally Pryor 5261]

Pretty indifferent to power conference tournaments that are playing out / getting ready to play out. But I hope like hell that NC and Duke can rematch Saturday night. That would be more than interesting.

Syracuse just took Florida State to the woodshed, and took them with malice.

How the hell was Will Baker ever a 5-star recruit?

Buddy Boeheim seems like he sucks.  

Also, Wake is about to lose to 12-19 BC.  That should knock them out of the tournament, but won't because of the selection committee's directive to include as many ACC teams as possible.

[BigOrange1 6436]

wake should definitely be out.  1-4 against quad 1 and 2 losses to teams in quad 3/4.  that's as bleh of a resume as you can have.

Wake might be the first p5 team in history to have a conference player of the year and coach of the year yet miss the tournament.

That was such a dogshit loss.

[PittsburghTiger 6181]

Very.  The ACC is crap this year

[Beau Vine 54220]

I don't know why I'm watching Eastern Washington and Northern Arizona, but it is a hell of a game.
