UK with the floor-slap on defense. I guess they've given up on convincing neutral fans to root for them.

If that had been Frank the Flop at the line, we would have had a tech on the ref...

Critique on Wisconsin at half:

- need to rebound better.

- have to hold Kentucky to one shot/half court game.

- slow it down, shot selection has been below average.

- pass the ball. To much isolation, 1-on-1.

Good:

- shooting. Can they keep it up?

- defense. Can be better though.

I love football, but so far my experience here is telling me that this is the Greatest Sports Event in America. Will be interesting to see how the venue translates to bball.

considering the venue sucks for football I wouldn't hold your breath.

I'm sitting low, but they've done a dam good job. Plenty of concessions, small lines, comfortable temp chairs.

 

[Mister Martie]

Fun game so far.

Absolute nightmare of a group of refs for florida. Call nothing down low. Call everything aggressive up top. I can honestly say uconn is not a better team. Better backyard players sure. Better team? No one can convince me

Wait, you think UCONN got more calls? Oof.

I can see how you can say that, though, UCONN only beat Florida twice this year.

Just a matter of what team you root for I guess... My facebook/twitter feed was full of fellow UConn fans complaining about the refs.

Wish I was back at Storrs for tonight. It is going to be absolute mayhem.

I'm getting some intermittent videos and text messages from Storrs. Absolutely crazy up there tonight. Could get ugly.

All Kentucky in the second half.

 

[rockaction]

Great point by Barkley about Kaminsky. Can't do much when two guys are in your jock all game.

Same thing happened -- and will happen -- to Napier again next game.

Kentucky cheats and are generally terrible people.

 

[SHIZNITTTT]

UK is just so ####### good! No one is going to beat them. How in the world they lost this year is amazing. ####### freshmen dominating these other teams.

I ####### hate UK>

 

[Mr.Pack]

Someone wake Wisconsin up

Wow

 

[SHIZNITTTT]

Calipari #### you!

 

[SHIZNITTTT]

Wisconsin

 

[Good Posting Judge]

Yikes.

 

[SHIZNITTTT]

UK by 60 in the championship game?

 

[joffer]

Wisconsin

I don't get it

Normally this is where I'd predict that Calipari will soon become the first coach to have Final Four appearances vacated at three different schools, but I don't think the NCAA even cares anymore.

When the barbarians are at the gate, you can't be worried about thieves stealing bread in the village.

Kentucky on every possession does:

Drive, shoot erratic shot, hope for rebound, score if possible.

Terrible basketball.

 

[Bruce Dickinson]

Crap. Why did TBS put Aaron ####### Craft on my TV again?

 

[fantasycurse42]

WTF are they doing?

Each possession is worse then the prior

 

[FDAS]

Crap. Why did TBS put Aaron ####### Craft on my TV again?

Because you need more scrappy grittiness in your life.

 

[SHIZNITTTT]

Please Jesus make UK lose and Calipari go to prison.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Fun game

Check with Tobias first before making this statement.

For those of you too young to remember, this is pretty much what it was like watching the Fab Five play when they were freshmen.

I was thinking that. How funny.

Jeez. Who was Randle? If they'd have had Randle, game over.

Only problem is that they're good at erratic shots and rebounding.

Too much talent on UK... UW won't be able to overcome it. There is also one other gigantic flaw with UW.

7'8" 8'4"

Wisconsin or any another team just can't keep UK off the offensive boards.

 

[Good Posting Judge]

Always nice to see a team that hasn't had ALL of the AAU squeezed out of them by actual coaches.

 

[fantasycurse42]

IMO most NBA ready player to make a difference now in this draft. He looks like the real deal.

The #1 recruit in 2015 (Ivan Rabb) lives around here and goes to HS right up the road from us. I hope he doesn't play for these jerkoffs.
