Tournament thread - Day 2

[intlzncster]

UVa will be allowed to commit homicides in the last 9 minutes without any foul calls. This will be prison basketball at one end and a love tap will be called a flagrant on the other.

They just did, but that Lyles kdi finished anyway

 

[nelsonmuntz]

UVa should go to the hole. The refs are going to give them every call

 

[intlzncster]

UVA starting to heat up

UVA waking up a bit

 

[intlzncster]

Too much time left. I think UMBC will blink, and UVA will squeeze them dry.

 

[Travelman6]

Everyone outside of the Virginia campus wants this!!! Come on!!

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

I don’t care about star rankings. UMBC exclusively has fast kids who can shoot. We don’t have any of either of those things.

 

[Doctor Hoop]

This game will go down to the wire, but UMBC is playing fearlessly. You gotta like it.

 

[intlzncster]

Lyles cramping already is not a good sign

 

[BugsyCT]

The mid-majors that get to this point usually have upper-classmen starting at most positions.

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

14 with 6 to go

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Wasting too many possessions running down the shot clock. Don't worry about the time until the last 2-3 minutes

 

[intlzncster]

Lyles man. Lyles.

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Can’t believe that call went UMBC way

 

[intlzncster]

UMBC walkons look straight out of Big Bang theory

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

This game is taking foreverrrrr

 

[nelsonmuntz]

UMBC needs to attack the basket on the press break. Make UVA pay for pressing.

Retrievers are gassed.

Yes, except I’m doing really well and I have UVA winning...

But in theory, it’s like seeing a unicorn! Of course you want it!

Yes, they are gassed - can they hang on? THIS is what makes sports such great theater! The longest 4 minutes of those kids lives...

 

[TRest]

Surprised UVA not getting calls.

 

[nelsonmuntz]

The next 3 Retriever possessions are huge.

 

[intlzncster]

oHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

 

[NutmegDog]

Surprised UVA not getting calls.

Not just not getting them - getting kind of abused by the refs in the final minutes.

 

[Hurleyman216]

Wow

 

[BugsyCT]

Oh my goodness!

 

[intlzncster]

Not just not getting them - getting kind of abused by the refs in the final minutes.

You think? Seemed pretty straight up for the most part.

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Dagger.

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Not just not getting them - getting kind of abused by the refs in the final minutes.

Relax. The charge was a charge, and the drive to the basket was blatant fishing for a foul call. Good calls by the refs in both cases.

lol the #1 overall seed
