Message: [QUOTE="connie, post: 2119233, member: 7882"] Way late on this... watched the game replay this am. Pretty amazing that we held the Bruins to 22 points with one minute 46 seconds left in the half. And then, UCLA hit 3 3-pointers in an 80 second span. We countered, however, and took a sizable lead into halftime. Again, just goes to show that unless you are up 30 points with a minute left, no lead is ever safe. I commented earlier that the announcers (Dave O'Brien, Kara, and Doris) just did not seem focused on the game being played during the second half. They spent at least 75% of the time swapping stories and talking generally about the tournament, the teams, etc. Meanwhile, a basketball game was going on--one that was certainly not a foregone conclusion, not until deep into the fourth quarter. Much prefer Joe D'Ambrosio on IMG. Not a knock on the ESPN crew. I just wish they would focus on the game! [/QUOTE]
