I wasn't aware that college basketball teams were allowed to run offensive sets.

it’s kind of astounding how many good programs/tournament teams seem to default to “give our best player the ball and get out of the way” down the stretch of big games. i really think that’s where the great coaches make hay. they have plans and strategies beyond, “let him cook!” and that’s why they win titles and the guys just beneath them don’t.

That and the ability to get kids to fully execute an offensive set. It’s no different than other sports too, executing the details matter. Some coaches can draw that out of their players, most can’t.

Which guy in this game do you think will have the best NBA career?

Expand  

Newton, Castle/Samson Johnson, Karaban/Clingan ... It's hard to say from this group.  Each, with good health and adaptation to the NBA game could play roles in the league for several years.  Edey might could be a back-up bench big for several years if he stays in good shape and good health.

Really need Purdue to win so I don't lose my family bracket.

My 8 year old won our women's family bracket and wins our 12 person men's family bracket with a UConn W tonight.

Should have entered her brackets into some money pools!

this turn on offenses in college basketball just brought this clip to mind

We were having a brief convo about how basketball has changed, this video right here. We learned the pick and roll and on and off ball screens but ghost screens, slips, etc that’s all newer. It’s pretty cool shit how things evolved but that UConn offense is another level man I tell ya.

Edey crying for a foul was rich. Mother fucker throws his elbow into the defenders body every damn time.

Fuck this goofy ass cornball. Purdue is only here because of how the refs allow him to get away with everything and call every single thing in his favor.

Apple has come up with some really annoying commercials lately with the singing electrical outlets and the fat guy with Don’t Let Me Go.

That’s a bit much. He’s not new era big guy but he’s pretty fucking good. And I hate Purdue so don’t take that the wrong way.
