Sweet 16 thread

Lol, flop.

 

[Jay-Bone]

Why do the announcers keep encouraging flops?

 

[UCDaveD]

Lol, flop.

I was so mad about that until they made it a double tech.

 

[auror]

Lol, flop.

Lol they changed it to double technical because of how egregious the flop is.

Jesus Louisville these rims are tight as f.

*Edit* Guy finally from 3.

 

[auror]

VIrginia 7/27 from 3.
Oregon 8/19 from 3.

Literally the ballgame at the moment. Virginia missing wide open 3's.

Kyle Guy 44% from 3 on the season, 2/11 today, 9 or so wide open.

How the hell is Texas Tech in the Elite 8 2 years in a row?

Why would any good basketball player go to Texas Tech??

 

[Chin Diesel]

Just spent 45 minutes on FB Messenger with an ex co-worker who is a huge Michigan fan and is doing a two year assignment in Australia.
It's Friday afternoon and his weekend is shot. As an added bonus his parents flew over from the states, they are hick and haven't ever been outside US. They are basically the ugly American tourist and he has been putting out cultural faux pas fires all week.
And UM spit the bit.

They have one of the 10 best coaches in the country?

 

[Robertelamin]

This should be a fun end.

Well obviously. Still a very weird school to see having this success. Never made it to the Elite 8 until last year.

Basically, Bob Knight did a great job hiring Beard as an assistant.

U-G-L-Y this UVA-Oregon game.

 

[Tommyboy]

Why did Oregon start fouling when they could have played defense down 3?

 

[UCDaveD]

That last missed free throw was a gut punch to someone holding Oregon +8.5 and Virginia -4.5 tickets such as myself.

 

[RayIsTheGOAT]

I respect Bennett and Virginia, but man oh man they are a hard watch sometimes from a neutral perspective.

How the heck did you manage that?

Took the Oregon line pregame and UVA live once Oregan shrunk their lead.

I'm just happy after that dumpster fire I get to keep watching them. Whole team still looks a bit shook from last year...except for clark, who obviously wasn't in school yet, he's been solid. Jerome could play himself into the first round of the draft

 

[Jaker]

I think this is the year the Zags finally get over the hump.

If you're gonna be an ugly American tourist, no better place than Australia to do it. They don't have any culture either.

Badass stat of the year...

Clarke for Gonzaga...going into the Sweet 16 game, has averaged 17 points a game...

And blocked more shots (107) than he missed (105).

 

[Robertelamin]

LSU can’t rebound.
