Game Thread: FINAL FOUR 2017

[DJ Fieri]

Right about now is when Dorsey and Brooks need to get hot if Oregon is going to pull this out.

I just need them to cover the 5 points or make it a push.....I also took UNC straight up.

It's not a comparison.

It's a question. With a few specific answers.

Specific answers? How on Earth can you even say that? There are countless answers to that question to the point that it is unanswerable. This is right about the point where you beat me with your stupidity. Specific answers? What a ridiculous comment.

And it is a comparison. You are literally asking what a program has that a coach does not. You are by definition comparing Sean Miller to the entire history of Marquette basketball.

Dammit Oregon! Turnovers after turnovers.

 

[Lions=TeHsUcKs]

Off the top of my head, Roy has only had 2 OAD's at Carolina; Marvin Williams and Brandan Wright

That seems ridiculous

He doesn't seem to land too many top 5 players. Those are usually OAD territory. Harrison Barnes was a recent one but he wanted a NC.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Meeks is just a big cookie monster

Interesting comparison.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Gonzaga has a better chance at winning the NC than I originally thought.....

Can't take that shot in that situation. Horrible shot selection by Brooks.

 

[Demonjoe93]

That's off Oregon.

 

[bksballer89]

Down 5 with a chance to make it a one possession game and Brooks attempts that shot.

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

Can't take that shot in that situation. Horrible shot selection by Brooks.

Altman sure didn't like it

 

[The Derski]

These are some of the best camera angles I've ever seen.

He doesn't seem to land too many top 5 players. Those are usually OAD territory. Harrison Barnes was a recent one but he wanted a NC.

Roy landed 4 Top 10 players in the 2005 and 2006 cycles and three of them stayed at least three years. Just amazing.

I don't think Gonzaga turns it over like the Ducks and shoots it better. Plus Karnowski is a horse inside.

Apparently. And your conclusion is be wrong. You'd see as much if you read how often I expressed a genuine feeling that they were, in fact capable. If you can't read well enough to see that then I don't know how else to explain it. There are about 10 teams that I thought we capable of going to the FF that I didn't pick to do so going in. GU, Oregon, AZ, UCLA, Louisville, are all teams that I thought were capable but I wouldn't predict them going in. I think they have great teams, but only 4 teams can get there. So how much sense does it make to pick 10 teams to go to the FF?

On the thread about picking the 5 teams everyone though would make the FF, I chose, Nova, Duke, KU, UK, and NC. Those aren't the only capable teams I saw in CBB that could make the FF. How are you unable to understand that?

Maybe when you say shit like the following:

"He's consistent. Hell, he may even get to the Elite Eight again this year. In that case, I think I'd say that he is starting to put it together for knocking on the door to a FF. But again, he's consistent. So there is no reason for me to believe that he is going to all of a sudden get to the FF and play for the NC. His schedule doesn't change, so I see no reason March will change."

What the hell else am I suppose to conclude when you say something like that? Based on the fact his schedule will never change(for example playing multiple top 25 teams in Jan/Feb) you concluded his March results won't either. That is the definition of incapable.

Yep Meeks won't have his way with the size of Karnowski

 

[Demonjoe93]

Brooks got screwed there.

 

[bksballer89]

Man what a cheap foul.

 

[douggie]

Down 5 with a chance to make it a one possession game and Brooks attempts that shot.

He sucked tonight.

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

Berry getting beat up this game

 

[The Derski]

It's all up to Dorsey now. Bad call.
