Tournament (Non-UConn) Thread - Sweet 16

[gsmooth]

That domask guy sure likes to back down his defender. Im cringing at the thought of Karaban guarding him

I think Karaban is big enough and strong enough to handle Domask. Now if it's Karaban against Dre Davis that's a different story

Illinois has a legit offense. But they’re going to ask guys who are 6’8 and 6’9 to battle in the paint with a 7’2 lottery pick.

As long as it’s NU Don instead of 1st half SDSU Don.

Two good games going on. UNC just took a dumb shot up 1.

I know everyone is watching our opponent, but man Sears is so good.

Imagine Samson pulling up from three in the last minute of a one point game. It just happened for Carolina.

Wow Bama

With 15 on the shot clock lol

Just watching UNC down the stretch made me appreciate that our team doesn't have a guy who we need to force the ball to in a clutch situation.

LOL at Dainja trying to dribble behind his back on the breakaway after the steal. That went as bad as I would have expected.

Well, we wouldn’t know

UNC goes down

 

[nomar]

Nelson is the man

 

[EnochRoot]

Bricks the last two FTs and then blocks the hail mary

 

[White Dwarf]

That Nelson fella can ball.

 

[Kolumbo]

UNC-ya!!

This Illinois, Iowa St second half is a slog

ISU's trapping just killed them on back 2 back possessions

 

[Blue Huskie]

Iowa State just can't get over the hump. They've missed so many golden opportunities.

The Illinois fans sitting next toe were not too amused with that

Classic hump game

This is what happens when you’re gimmicky.

Iowa St is doubling for no reason. Illinois can’t score when they play straight up

 

[Ripper32]

Illinois survived the period without TSJ.

 

[B1GEast]

The stadium announcer sounds like an NBA game. It's kind of weird cause they hype both sides. Just heard a loud Threeeee!

 

[kobe]

uconn would smoke iowa state. huskie bros rooting for them im guessing?

Yup I just threw my hands up on frustration. If Illinois was hitting their open 3s , which they have had many of, they would be way out in front

 

[uconn_jack]

Well, people were complaining about this tourney being too chalky. Not so much anymore with a 1 and 2 going down.

It’s all self inflicted. The gimmicky doubles aren’t working. Yet they keep doing it and giving up wide open shots. They’re too small. Illinois is seeing right over the doubles

 

[uconn_jack]

Man, I keep going back and forth on who I'd rather be against Saturday.
