What putrid basketball. It was pretty much whoever didnt sck worse won. NC was gifted a championship--they were all but dead against Arkansas. Give some credit--its another notch in their belt.

All the fun teams lost. I really wanted to see Oregon in the championship game. UNC got some bogus foul calls to beat Kentucky, too.

46-132 (34.8%) combined from the field, 32-52 (61.5%) from the line, so 106 missed shots. Lmao. The officiating was actually worse than the shooting and that tells its own story.

Only good thing to come from that ****show is how the Duke fans will be feeling right now.

There was a game. I can honestly say I watched none of the games.

Competitive but ugly.

Some of the worst looking shots I've ever seen in a big game.

The Gonzaga turnovers really kiddlled Gonzaga, and the inability of that Polish kid to hit 50% of those short hooks was pretty bad.

Yeah, no player really helped themselves this game. Part of it was the reffing. They weren't I prepared for this level of physicality and defense. Still, I wanted Gonzago to win their first title.

I actually still like Justin Jackson. His activity was high and I've never seen a kid master so many floaters from different ranges like that. It was a tough game shooting from 3 but I think Jackson is going to be a nice 2 way player.

I agree. He won't be an alpha but very easy to envision him contributing in a variety of ways.

the Final Four blew, but the tournament as a whole was exciting. I love the South Carolina story. But back to this weekend's games, you expect the games to be ****ty when they play them in a football stadium. I think it creates an awful environment for both the players and the fans.

I watch a couple of games, especially regarding some of the players you guys have been talking about, and I just don't see any NBA ready guys. at least no impact guys.

Any player can have a sub par game--its just gets magnified more.

I don't think it was a gift, not even close.. UNC basically came back in the final minutes of every game they played

I was rooting for them too, the NC has a nice group of kids and played tough, but not dirty. Had no issues with the outcome, but did want to see Gonz. finally get a title.
