This time of year is made by ballers and Clayton Jr is a baller.

I'm more confident than ever that this is Florida's championship to lose. Maybe the only team that can stop them is Duke and Flagg.

Those late 3’s aren’t going to fall every game for them.
 
I detest Duke and don't want them to tie us in championships but I would be okay with it because I want basketball schools continuing to win all the championships.

I really don't want J Sheyer to win a NC. It's not that he's such a great coach but rather a great recruiter because of the Duke name. Can't they just please lose before?

I don't either but screw all these football schools. The only football schools who won national championships in hoops the past 75 years are Michigan on the worst call ever against Seton Hall, Baylor, and Florida back to back. Now that the deck is so stacked in their favor they want to control everything.
 
Sick block by Nelson. Alabama just needs to get hot from three and they can win this game. If it is a one possession game I like their chances.
 
Nelson has hops. He somehow dunked on Clingan last year.

That is an interesting take and if it was any other school, I am ok with it. Tennessee was good in hoops for awhile.

It feels Bama gets closer then Duke goes back up double digits again
 
Agreed on missing the lob. We just did not have any guards other than Diarra that knew how to look off the defender. Diarra was good not elite but everyone else was below average. Ball was getting better but he has limitations finishing so defender can cheat. Too bad because Johnson gets up as high and quicker than anyone else I have seen in college this year..
 
Flagg is definetly playing hurt and it won’t make a difference.
 
I laugh every time Jimmy Jackson says “Youngblood” because my first thought is that he just forgot the dudes name.

I like him on these calls.
 
Sears not showing up. He’s been very inconsistent this year, significantly worse season than last year. I was pretty surprised when he got 1st Team AA
 
I just don’t think you can shoot your way to a chip. They are one dimensional right now. Balance is needed. They have to figure out how to get a few stops and just get baskets at the other end not just settling for the first decent three. Duke is long and that means tough close outs.

That is also impacting Sears.
 
Nice inbounds to Kon. Alabama fell asleep.

Nelson and Sears are the key. Nelson has out quicked Kneuppel a few times.
