If WVU could hit a couple of those easy 2 point jumpers they would be really giving it to Kentucky.

If WVU could hit a couple of those easy 2 point jumpers they would be really giving it to Kentucky.
Both of these teams are good at defense.
And basketball in general.
You could be saying the same thing about Kentucky missing their 3'sQuote:

Apart from Bledsoe, they aren't that great of a jump shooting team.Quote:

Does John Calipari promote poor free throw shooting at whatever school he goes to?
Just don't think he spends much, if any, time on it in practice.Quote:

John Wall can just show Butler his pay check next year for revenge.
10th foul on WV, kent in the double bonus the rest of the way ..
.. Can they just opt to take the ball out on not shoot FTs?
This prediction is looking good right now :cool:Quote:

Kentucky played tough but not smart. Usually they adjust well at halftime but not tonight. Heckuva game by the Mountaineers.
So much for that.Quote:

Yeah maybe they should run free throw drills.Quote:

well its not overly surprising, Kenticky has had several games where they struggled to shoot well.
Usually they were athletic enough to manage a win against lesser teams, but it just seemed a matter of time before it happened in the tourney vs a top notch team.
Is there anyone who you'd like to see in the NBA more than Butler's Gordon Hayward?
How awesome would he look standing in the starting lineup next to Allen Iverson and Ron Artest?
Don't forget the kid that wears the matching t-shirt under his jersey - Matt Howard

Seriously!? WTF!? You're indoors, you don't need the t-shirt, whitey!
They don't want there pits or shoulders to show:p They have trust problems
What a game this Michigan St v. Tennessee is turning out to be.
You'd hate to see a game end on free throws but that was a pretty bad hack.
Free throws is that reason. Not youth. Cause, yeah, Marcus Camby wasn't a freshman.Quote:

What I said was, the blah blah blah from the talking heads that the most experienced teams win every single year isn't true. Freshmen can, and have, won tourneys. If your team is good, it's good. Fact.
And it's not like MSU upset the entire world. The only higher seed they beat was Maryland. Not like I can fault them for that in this tourney but it's not like they are the most improbable run to the final four in history. In fact, Butler beat the top two seeds in their region, I'd say they are the most improbable run since 06.
Yeh, I didn't want to incur the wrath of HAC by saying this, but yeh I agree with OD hereQuote:

What's up with those UPS commercials about right turns? If the trucks always take right turns, they'll just drive round and round and round....
I love it when every single little bit of contact is whistled for a foul for 40 minutes. Just makes the game so damn fun to watch and really helps give it an entertaining flow that all fans can get into
what a shitty game that was.
God I hate Duke
Go Duke! (for one more game)
God I hate Duke
God Damn Duke!! Butler V. WVU National Championship game
Oregon is going after Izzo. It's on the Heard right now
