Sick finish but Wisconsin had no business allowing UF to get the ball back.

Shot clock was off and Wisconsin went too damn fast. How does Florida get the ball back with 4 seconds left when you had possession with the shot clock off in a tied game.

In that situation there should only be 2 outcomes.

1) Wisconsin buzzer beater

2) Game is sent to double OT

Imo, can't go wrong with Fultz, Lonzo or Jackson. Personally, I prefer Jackson for the Lakers because of his defense.

Either way, Russell will slide over to the 2 spot or be traded.

I'd stay off Jackson, at least as far as the top 3 or 4 are concerned (5th to 7th is where I'd rate him). He can defend, but he's got a ghastly FT% which is usually an indicator of overall scoring success in the NBA. Guys with that low of a FT% typically struggle to score at the next level. He's a good athlete but he doesn't blow you away with it so that could make it harder for him to be a two way player. If I'm drafting that high, I want something more than just defense. Tatum would be a better pick and really, Malik Monk should be getting more top 5 love. He's got elite level scoring potential. At worst I think he's Devin Booker or CJ McCollum.

Plus, Jackson has had two off court behavioral issues. Could be he its just immaturity and he grows out of it but in a loaded draft, its enough to give me pause and look elsewhere

It's funny how missing ft's was the biggest weakness of Wisconsin, but Hayes made the 2nd which gave Florida that chance. I'm guessing they wanted to possibly get an offensive rebound if Hayes didn't make the shot, but settling for 2OT is better than losing in 1OT. Bad decision making but those are to be expected especially in college basketball. Great game with the first OT and buzzer beater of the tourney.

Would I need a new change of pants?
Idk, how old are you?


I feel like if you are between 23-28, then yes, the nostalgia hits FUCKING HARD, and it's actually a solid storyline.

If you didn't grow up with it, it's a cheesy decent popcorn flick, 6.5/10ish

I was in the 3rd grade when it first came out. I wanted to despicable things to the Pink Ranger when I was in middle school. She would've enjoyed it, might've had a stalker in middle school which would've been cool. Had one while in the Marine Corps......not as cool.

Kansas was already going to win, plus Ball transfered there now for the final 3 games.

Don't know if kansas will win. They had a pretty easy first 3 games. Now shit get real. Oregon, UNC/Kentucky, & Gonzaga/Florida

If Ball can declare UCLA the winner, I can declare Kansas the winner.

BTW, did anyone hear James comments after the game yesterday?

He was the Cavs came out 'with a physical DEPOSITION (instead of disposition)'.

But, he wrote the S.I. letter :L.

So, I heard Suns were intentionally fouling, calling TO's to get the ball back for Booker just to pad stats in a game they are getting destroyed?

What is this league coming too?
He scores 70 and has a -6.
Seriously. WTF?
