Thinking about watching UCLA v. Utah. How severe will my eye cancer be if exposed to pac12 basketball for 2 hours?

I had to look to see who the Uclahoma HC was. Murry Bartow. Wonder who they'll go with long term. Is Bill Self going to get run out of Kansas?

[spystud13 2,371]

Holy fuck, Utah!!!!!! 

[WhatTheBuck 28,777]

Wow, what a finish!

[Jhawk 1,075]

Haha I turned it off when they were down 22. Turned it back on as the final shot was in the air. UCLA is the worst. 

Just hire Rick Pitino and be done with this rubbish.

Duke has been scorching from 3 today.

[Underdog 28,614]

Fuck.  What did I miss?  switched it to Duke/UVa game, thought this one was over.

Utah led for exactly zero seconds. Down 22, come back to win on a last second 3 at UCLA. 

[spystud13 2,371]

The gif of that lady UCLA fan will be all over the internet shortly. 

[spystud13 2,371]

Here's the shot. 

 

 

[spystud13 2,371]

 

61 fucking points in the 2nd. 

[MNLonghornFUKM 8,817]

Zion blocked a shot 10 rows up. good lord

[Wally Pryor 5,261]

Worst free throw attempt, ever, by Salt from Virginia.  Ever. 

I swear he nearly broke the backboard.

[Machinator 32,099]

Virginia didn't play badly, but when Duke is making shots, there's not much you can do.

Unreal recovery he made to block that shot.

[Knoxtnhorn 5,974]

Tennessee is in a stretch where they will have played ONE Top 25 team in 18 games.  Just an observation; not an attack on Barnes, Derka.

Holy cow, I turned it off as well, but didn't go back to it so I missed the fun.

It's interesting to see how UCLA has turned into such a shitastic program.

[texasstrong12 4,668]

It's going to be tough finding at large bids at this point. The Big East will probably get a 3rd team in but there isn't another resume (outside of Nova and Marquette) that's very good. 

The Big East got 6 teams in the tournament last year.

How is this possible at 285 pounds?

Saw her reaction this morning on SC during highlights...  "wow".

If Zion can go at 90% for 32mpg in the nba he’ll be one of the most marketable players in the league by year 2 or 3. 

Have a question though. I know he’s 6-8” or so and 200-whatever. But do his arms look short? Something about his arms/hands just looks stubby. Am I missing something? Does he has small hands relative to his body size? It just looks weird to me.

Now that's a statement to stand by, Wally.

Indeed.

UH-Cincinnati about to tip off on ESPN. Sold out Fertitta Center. Let’s go Coogs!

Great to see UofH selling 18,000 tickets to a basketball game

[GHOSTUSER 361]

Great win for the Coogs. 32 straight wins at home. Cumberland for Cincinnati was great but they went cold at the end.

[JimmyHoffa 1,188]

Not nearly as great as the Utah comeback but from last night- 

 

 

 

Hopefully the tourney will have more of these ending this year. 

[Wally Pryor 5,261]

Watched that Iowa game last night.  Crazy to say the least.  Both they and Utah were down 15 w/ 4.5 left to play (Utah actually 14).

Amazing comebacks in both cases.  

[Jhawk 1,075]

Remember when a 10+ point lead with 5 minutes was usually safe? The shot clock reduction and the prominence of the 3 point shot has really changed the game. I’m not comfortable with a 10 point lead and 2.5 minutes left anymore.

This is like any and every Rick/Shaka "end of game playcall out of a timeout" except it somehow worked. 

[Goo Punch 4,275]

oh wow what a shit by White. 

[Goo Punch 4,275]

oh wow, that was late by probably one tenth of a second. 

[PittsburghTiger 6,178]

UNC just pissed away this one at home vs. UVa. Interesting finish. 

[PittsburghTiger 6,178]

UVa plays some serious defense

 

[Jhawk 1,075]

Their only losses are to duke. They look better this year than last year in my opinion.

If UMBC gets hot and wins the America East conference bid, the committee hopefully has the balls to put them in the same bracket as UVA.

[Underdog 28,614]

Love me some Hoos. 

[Jhawk 1,075]

Question on Maggette... Wasn't the year of the alleged rape the same year K took like 80% of the year off?  Wasn't it well known that Maggette was paid?

[Underdog 28,614]

CM played at Duke the year they lost to UConn in the Finals, and yes, it was known that he received money from Myron Piggie, Duke just got off unscathed because "they didn't know"...  rolleyes.   This rape allegation will probably play out the same way...  " they didn't know". 

[Blotto 23,498]

Lulz at Jayhawk and UK fans sniping at Duke for paying players. If it takes cash to get players of Maggette's caliber to Duke, you can bet it takes cash to get those same types of players to any top basketball school.

No one is saying anything different. 

[Jhawk 1,075]

Yeah I don’t know if you’ve seen some of my rants but I’m convinced Ku is going down, whether I believe it is right or not. I’d like to see it all burn down at this point. 

Kind of have the “they can’t give every school the death penalty “ mentality. 

[Underdog 28,614]

Tight one going on in Rupp, tied 69 with less than a minute left, UK/LSU

[Jhawk 1,075]

Didn’t think LSU was that good.
