Wednesday. 1st Round of Big East Tournament

[Dooooooomed]

so who do we want here? I assume if X wins, we get at leats 4 teams in. if they lose?

Maximize BE bids, meaning Xavier & the Hall/Johnnies winner getting as far as possible in the tourney until being knocked out by UConn.

Xavier has completely blown a 17 point lead over freaking Butler.

Not impressed at all with Xavier's coach. No idea what his team has been doing in the 2nd half.

 

[Dooooooomed]

Xavier got up big then started playing not to lose. Can't ever play not to lose.

 

[jdb50]

The refs eyes were not even looking at he ball to see Xavier touched it last

 

[aburks41]

Xavier lolol

 

[87Xfer]

BET baby! happy to be watching it again!!!!!!

 

[SixRings]

Want Butler. We match up better against them.

 

[87Xfer]

Well the winner of this game has to beat Creighton and we beat Xavier at their place without Bouknight so...

Idk what the hell Coach Jordan drew up in those timeouts, but Butler's execution at the end of regulation with multiple opportunities was horrible. No screens to free a couple players to start a fast break past half court. Should have been a two on one quick basket and then put the pressure on Xavier to score. Also, why would Xavier pick up defensively 3/4 court there. Should have had 3 guys near the paint to defend an easy basket, two guards pick up 3/4 court.

The commentators mentioned there are around 1,000-1,500 in attendance, mostly friends and family.

That would be the great Tim Brando and Bill Raftery.

Agree. Butler doesn’t have the speed at guard to get much 1-on-1.

Bouk is gunna be cookin' up a lot of ONIONS!

 

[elmcityboy]

freemantle doesn't seem like he wants the moment... keeps passing up open shots and turned it over to end regulation.

[UConn_Top_Dog]

Harris with the ONIONS! that kid is going to be really good next year.

I can’t believe Chuck Harris is only a freshman. He looks really good right now

 

[ASweet3781]

WTH?? Why foul??

Someone wake Rafferty up.

 

[87Xfer]

Butler playing like they DGAS, cause they sorta don't

 

[SixRings]

Now beat Creighton
