Gotta feel for Fisher. 2011 was his best shot and one of the best tournament of all time sprung the upset.
That was an awesome team led by Kawhi. I remember against UConn there was a technical foul called on SDSU when they had gone on a run to go up 4 with under 10 min left, during a timeout Kemba flopped against Franklin and got rewarded. That shifted the momentum right back to the Huskies and could have changed the outcome of the game. Between that flop and SDSU blowing it down the stretch against Arizona a couple years ago, they've had some tough beats in the sweet 16's. I wanna see a final 4 run from the Aztecs so bad!

Say What you want. But kemba isn't even looking at him. He never sees it coming and Franklin throws the shoulder into him. And then cheers about it.

And his teammates, the looks on their faces knew he fucked up. Cheap shot.

Final 4 of the NIT validates the programs of the teams even if they did win at home. Being top seeded in a region means something. As for any of them being screwed out of the NCAA, yeah probably. But showing up in MSG will be a program boost for all these teams.
Seeding.means nothing if your court is under renovation..... Gators get that game at the odome like it should have been they win.

Based on sports SportsHoopla posters....

Duke fans and video evidence don't mix.

Based on your response I'm sure you believe ray rice missed janay. You'd be about as accurate.

Please. Kemba never even sees the guy. The slow mo shows he's not even looking at him. The dude throes his shoulder and then taunts him while he's on the ground.

Even his teammates knew he fucked up.

Just rewatched it.. I was looking at wrong player...... He does appear to lower his shoulder into him but the reaction (the falling backwards) was way overplayed imo

Really surprised at how good of a player Tyler Cavanaugh has become.

Really wonder what Manning would have done with Cavanaugh, if he stayed at Wake.
