The Official Tourney Thread

[Horatio]

Phantom call

 

[TRest]

Exactly, so why is it a new trend

I meant high tops, no real support so just throw on whatever Nike is pushing now.

 

[Travelman6]

This game is ugly

This first 3 or 4 minutes or so actually started off really nice, flowing nicely, high scoring, but it quickly turned ugly, especially the next 4 or 5 minutes.

 

[Jaker]

UNC just needs to go inside every possession to either Meeks or Hicks.

 

[Travelman6]

Thornwell really had a silent 15 points. It was not a good game. That was the game IMO, he just did not make his presence known like in the other 4 games. How does SC look for next year?

 

[BugsyCT]

This game kind of sucks now.

 

[Jaker]

Dorsey has been a no show so far, he has to score 20+ for oregon to contend

 

[Travelman6]

ahhhh they are mentioning the allegations with UNC but it is such BS!

 

[Jaker]

Jackson has such a sweet stroke

 

[Tommyboy]

Are the announcers trying to make us feel sorry for the UNC level of recruits? LOL.

 

[Scoe]

Oregon playing way out of control.

 

[UConn_Top_Dog]

Jackson on UNC reminds me of Jeremy Lamb.

Yah, that is why I said it is such BS. Their bosses told them to give it a mention when most people are likely to be getting a beer/bathroom break...But they tried to hard to sweep it under the rug.

They have 6 McDonalds AA on the team. Their frontcourt is STACKED and experienced. Basically because they aren't one and done they are "degrading" them. Ridiculous.

Exactly, so why is it a new trend

I'd say a majority of the hoops shoes NBA players wear are now low tops. Kobes, KD's, Lillards, Hardens. Adidsas Crazylight boost, Nike Zoom Live, a lot of guys wear the new Crazy explosive lows. PG's new shoes and Kyries are more mids. The only really high tops you see are the Lebrons, D Rose's, Crazy Explosive Highs and the sneaker heads who wear retro Jordans but they are a rarity.

 

[Walker11]

Watching Jackson just makes me ticked off about D Ham leaving. They were on similar college career trajectories and were very similarly ranked.

 

[Jaker]

I have never owned a pair of high tops

 

[UConn990411]

How nauseating is it that UNC's even allowed to play in the tourney?

 

[Jaker]

Oregon getting worn down, Meeks eating a buffet in the paint

 

[Travelman6]

They kind of remind me of the 1998 Uconn/UNC game except this is a 3/1 in the final four instead of a 2/1 in the elite 8 but just like Uconn, oregon is kind of hanging around, not getting blown out, and will likely lose by around 9 to 12.

 

[BugsyCT]

Horrid 3 pt shooting for Oregon. Too tough to get anything in the paint.

The best basketball shoe I've ever bought is the High top hyperdunks or those high top lebrons. Why risk a bad ankle sprain.

 

[Jaker]

Brooks has been terrible

 

[Robertelamin]

Ha, how did that go in?

 

[Travelman6]

for a final four team with a top 3 seed, oregon is kinda shiznat....why are they jacking up so many 3s when they are only down around 5 points or so in the past 5 minutes? They were blessed with that last shot though, down 3.

 

[BugsyCT]

Wow, those 3s are like pulling teeth. Ball spent the whole weekend on that rim.

 

[Jaker]

game got interesting quick

 

[Robertelamin]

Here we go!

 

[Travelman6]

Hey kids, let me teach you about boxing out.

 

[Jaker]

good gawd
