Ostensibly Hoops

[Owlman]

they showed the Laetner shot again today. Watched the whole Kentucky-Texas Western game this past week. It's amazing how close the games were called. Every member of UNC/Villanova squad would have fouled out tonight and the number of traveling calls would have made it unwatchable (they called traveling instead of palming)

[Saint]

Jackson played good tonight, except the 2 missed FTs late. Carolina should be a top 10 team next year but they'll have to navigate some loaded teams to get back to the FF.

and not dunking it before the half would have been up 9 if he dunks it

and the fact he got abused in the post by Heart on back downs

and he took that early 3 in the second hafl when Meeks was wide open

[goldenbear]

Hopefully they do all comeback because I think they can win the title not the favorite but as good as anyone

with Berry, Pinson, Jackson, Hicks, Meeks, Maye, Britt.

[eCat]

Even if UK gets Bolden, on paper they'll be very good, but I'm not sure we'll have the depth needed.

[Saint]

so, eCat, you still don't want Jay Wright after Calipari leaves UK?

Crotch and his crew would have a fit over that record

[Saint]

Well, he's been coaching at Villa-fucking-nova

[eCat]

Well, he's been coaching at Villa-fucking-nova

plus he's 55 years old

even if he came here next year, he'd be pushing 60 before he established himself - and he's not coming here next year - or the next 4 years as Brad Calipari is a walk on at UK next year.

[Owlman]

Nova shot 58.3% for the game. I'll bet it was over 65% in the 2nd half.

yes they did not that shot from 16 minute mark to 5 minute mark ,until they end they it was all foul line trips because of ticky tack calls

5 fouls on UNC, 4 on Villanova the last 10 minutes of the game

[goldenbear]

Will see how well Wright does with out Archie and and OCefu they will have zero size

I dont see Nova as a sweat 16 next year

[eCat]

Cal walks away in the 2020-21 season and who knows what the coaching landscape looks like by then.

Tony Bennett will be 53 then.

5 fouls on UNC, 4 on Villanova the last 10 minutes of the game

like I said they made one jumper the last 5 really 6 minutes all trips to the line , 9 points from the line 5 form the field for the last 6 minutes not great basketball not even good basketball

and the foul with 35 second left was second worse call of the game

[Owlman]

There weren't that many fouls. They were one and one's for the most part. Other teams have a lot more fouls called than that. Except for the one that was a travel, all the foul calls in the last 5 minutes were legitimate (and the one on which he may have traveled was also a foul, just after the travel) . Give them their due. They shot great, hit difficult shots, defended well and rebounded well.

"yes they did not that shot from 16 minute mark to 5 minute mark"

translation please?

"yes they did not that shot from 16 minute mark to 5 minute mark"

translation please?

they did shoot well form 16 minute mark to 5 minute mark, but actually 6

Hicks did not touch him it was not a foul and Nova traveled like that same 4 or 5 times and it was not called, down 1 with the ball or down 3 with the ball.

two other fouls were on over the backs that put Nova on the line they did not need to call either since nova had gotten the ball

and then the worse call of the game was the one on Meeks when he dove and got lose ball UNC was up 5 there and would have had lay up to go up 7

plus I am not going to give them there do when the refs called play on the guards tight but did not call the push off on the guard

UNC could not guard aggressive because of it and thus

[goldenbear]

I guess I will try and get some sleep

this one was stolen by 3 terrible human beings

[Saint]

Who knows what any landscape is by then?

This is really entertaining.
