Reaves has some greyson Allen in him. Not the good part either
-
Why don’t teams foul and try to extend the game anymore?
-
Like they should have fouled a minute and a half ago.
-

OU didn’t have fouls to give to be able to do that. At that point, they had too many guys already with 4 fouls like Harkless and Reaves so players would’ve been fouling out who OU needed to keep on the floor.
-
Watching the UCLA game, even more unfathomable that UT lost to Abilene-Christian. Yes, they play hard, but they simply can’t score…
-
Dam Cam Thomas from LSU leads the Nation in Free Throws now forgot which one it was but lads the Nation at either Free Throws Made - - or Free Throws Attempted - -188 - - shooting 87 %
-
I don’t know who to root against harder in this Michigan LSU matchup, so I’m cheering on Creighton
-
First team to 40 might win the Colorado Florida State game
-
I hate referees. Screwing Michigan right now
-
Someone remind me how many games Javonte Smart sat out?

2 words…trey burke. As much as I hate the sec…Michigan is still in my 20 year hatred for a tournament battle.
I’m pretty childish when it comes to teams beating ku in the tourney.
-
Mercy that was the most obvious blown call Michigan totally stepped out of bounds on the drive so what do the ref’s do - - they call a foul on LSU LMAO YA THAT WORKS
-
Chaundee Brown a recruit Self lost to Danny Manning having a big game for Michigan. Always wanted him in crimson and blue
-
@BeddieKU23 I was just going to say…
Just goes to show how impactful transfers can be. Malik also proof of that.
Bill needs to really hit the transfer market hard
-
Remember watching him in peach jam 4 yrs ago and thinking his Sr year would be a good one. Been a solid team player for Michigan and glad he found a good spot to end his career.
Absolutely the transfer market should be used. Dedric, Malik, Moss have been + signees out the market. Some others not so much. Definitely have to find guys that fit specific roles here
-
Smart is a ball hog, Cam Thomas is way better then this cat
-
Chaundee with a career high 21 in a Michigan uni
-
Pretty high level of play by both teams compared to most games…
-
Winning time for Michigan. Will Wade’s bought team falling apart after really playing well for about 32 minutes
-

Not if UM makes lazy, stupid passes that lead to easy layups…
-
Still a 8 pt deficit but yeah that was badd
-
Flipped it to the Michigan game for one minute and saw the blown out of bounds call. Guess it went downhill from there for LSU. Shame.
-
@DCHawker And then dribbles into the corner and has to call a timeout.
-
During our Baton Rouge years I’d go to LSU games. Wait for the TV timeout and pick out a court side seat that wasn’t taken and go sit in it. No one ever questioned me. Saw Ben Simmons up close and personal a lot of times. LSU fans could care less about basketball.
-
The UM PG is trying hard to throw the game…
-
Michigan pointguard doing what he can to help, but LSU stinks for a reason
-
Garrett will guard Mobley lol

I think Ben Simmons felt the same way about LSU.
-
Oregon St is terrible how did they make it this far
-
@BeddieKU23 Got hot at the right time.
-
Only took 37:17 for a team to reach 50 points.
-
The Midwest is the region KU was hoping to be in. A lot of slower paced, good defense, average offensive teams in the region would’ve given KU a much better chance that what KU did have to deal with.
-
Pac 12 will get at least 2 teams into the Elite 8.
-
Baylor better get it together they got work to do
-
Jay Wright pays officials.
-
Baylor in the 2nd half is the one team that can beat Gonzaga this year.
-
Arkansas is like “we are going to the Elite 8” and ORU is like “ORU”?
-
@approxinfinity ORU had a 10 point halftime lead the first time they played back in December and end up losing by 9. ORU knows they can play with Arkansas because they’ve already done it this season.
-
Arkansas holds off ORU by 2. ORU had a great look from 3 for the win, but it rimmed out.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 too bad they went cold from 3. Coulda won comfortably if they didnt go ice cold from behind the arc.
-
@approxinfinity Bigger reason was rebounding. Arkansas grabbed 18 offensive rebounds. This was basically a repeat of their first game, just a closer final margin.
-
Houston looking good to make their first Elite 8 since the Phi Slamma Jamma days in 1984.
-
Houston by 16 over Syracuse.
Monday night is going to be Houston vs. Oregon St. and Baylor vs. Arkansas.
-
UCLA should have fouled. What are you doing, Bruins?
-
The announcer just before Alabama’s play started. “This is the 29th anniversary of the Christian Laettner shot”. I don’t cuss but I felt like it. I mean his shot will go down in history, because of freaking CBS as the greatest shot in history. It wasn’t better, (and this is just my memory) than Keith Smarts NCAA winning shot in 1987, or Scottie Thurmans shot in 1994, or of course Mario’s shot in 2008 or the Villanova shot in 2016. Not even close. If Laettner misses his shot Kentucky goes to the FF instead of Duke. These freaking media types can’t help but continuing to kiss Dukes a$$ even as it’s been years since they were relevant.
-
@wissox You seem to ignore that the other shots were in the course of plays that started with more time left than Hill’s full-court pass to CL. I hate Leitner, but it was a turnaround shot from a location he seldom would shoot from (and with no time to set up), so I consider it much harder than any of the shots that started with the player facing the basket.
In addition, it is really the whole play that was amazing, which to me is more like how Sherron’s ball-handling and pass while falling helped make Mario’s shot more memorable than Smart’s.
All the shots were clutch, but I (despite holding my nose) have to award degree of difficulty points to the Dookies.
-
@mayjay No, I can’t agree. I wouldn’t even hold my nose and agree. I wouldn’t even accept a 10,000$ agree with you fee and agree (ok, I might rethink that one). To me it was the fact that it was a shot to get to the Final Four. That’s all. Sure, there’s a different National Champion if Duke misses that shot, but I tend to believe it’s only a famous shot because of the sports media obsession with Duke.
-
-
As much as the Laetner shot gotten hyped and replayed, I guess I’ve actually started to think it was the championship game.
Then there’s the best Duke miss in tournament history:
Anyway, nothing will ever beat NCState’s win over Phi Slamma Jamma
