Do announcers ever realize how dumb they sound?
Sometimes I think they talk just to be talking. FAU clutch free throws down the stretch. As we know, free throws are important.

Like Curry giving it up vs us.
Just take the shot, no matter how many dudes are guarding you.

I am 100% convinced Gonzaga is going to win - because I need UConn to win - and the basketball god/s hate me.
Anyone know what the odds were on FAU to make the Final Four before the tournament started? Had to have been at least 25-1.

Jerome should go to Washington. He would be known as WU Tang. Or Pepperdine? He could be PU Tang.

Nowell is good tho. It’s fun to watch a guard who can shoot, get to the rim, draw fouls
He’s really not. His selfish style works to a degree but will lose eventually. He’s also the kind of guy you’d hate playing with. Nearly Every possession was him dribbling and chucking. Just because some miraculously went in doesn’t change my mind.

Nowell choked. Twice. Unfortunate. He’s a stud. Amazed we held him in check this year.

Go figure he gave up the last shot.

If instead of picking up the dribble he’d have just chucked it, I was expecting it to go in.

And you’re take is prob better in the big picture, but dood just put up 30 and 12 in the elite 8

I’m not saying dude can’t ball, but I’m quitting that team. He also does way too many bad/dumb things for my liking.

We’re 6-5 in the E8 the last 21 tournaments but all Staters can talk about is how we choke. They’ll be hanging 2 banners this year: Elite 8 and Advanced Further Than KU.

I’d like to see Gonzaga win one. And would hate to see UConn get another one thanks to a busted bracket year.

Little dood with passes between his legs, behind his back. Jacking ill advised 3s. He's really good but went for highlights over winning.
