The Official Tourney Thread

[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.

 

[Horatio]

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.

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

 

[Robertelamin]

Here we go!

Moron

 

[Tommyboy]

What a strange ending.

 

[UConn990411]

Lol, what a joke.

I hope UNC gets steamrolled Monday.

 

[BugsyCT]

frickin UNC. Meeks swallows up everything.

 

[Drew]

Bell failing to block out twice on the FTs is flat out ridiculous

 

[nomar]

That's on Bell, but Meeks got away with a push in the back. But if you're Bell you can't let that happen twice.

 

[UConn_Top_Dog]

That's god damn elementary school stuff man... how do you not box out twice!?!

 

[Jaker]

yeah, I thought meeks pushed off, but oh well

 

[Rocktheworld]

Gonna be an epic battle in the paint

 

[Drew]

Bell didn't even put a butt into Meeks on either FT. It's like he expected them to go in and just did the classic slight arm bar and got totally out of position because of it. Once maybe but the fact that it happened twice is beyond belief
