NCAA Tournament Thread

Saw it suggested on Clemson boards -- has to be their best-ever basketball performance, right?

 

[PhDeac]

Yep - I think she does a good job. I think she played at NCSU.

Yeah. In the 80s.

Debbie Antonelli has been broadcasting for a long time.

This is her 2nd men’s NCAA.

I don’t watch women’s college hoops or the WNBA, where she spends the vast majority of her time.

Like I said, I think she’s been great. Way better than Reggie Miller and a number of the other familiar characters.

 

[PhDeac]

To that end, I've enjoyed Candace Parker in the studio. The clips of her watching Tennessee lose were pretty funny. We've all been there. Didn't realize Shelden Williams divorced her. Yeah, that doesn't make any sense, but it happened.

Still can't get over Brenden Haywood as the nerdy analyst. He's quite good.

Clemson up 40 to make the Sweet Sixteen. And we got Danny Manning.

RChill and DCDeac will be here soon to call you LOWF

Wake needs true PG like Maura. Odom does have them playing very well.

 

[ChrisL68]

UMBC just can't get the lead.

Maura looks like Ziggy Sobotka from season 2 of the Wire. I wonder if he has a duck.

 

[PhDeac]

UMBC just can't get the lead.

Crazy that they haven't hit a basket in 6 minutes yet they're only down 1. Both teams are playing great defense.

I think he looks like Luthor from "The Warriors"

Underneath the Nevada basket on the court it says "second round". Do they lay down new flooring between the first and second rounds? weird.

I miss how they used to use individual floors at the host sites. and if the venue hosts a college team, they'd use their floor.

like so:

 

[PTownDeac]

UMBC plays three times harder than Wake does.

 

[PhDeac]

Lyles pulled a Crawford there.

 

[BillBrasky]

UMBC plays three times harder than Wake does.

They do. Just not enough gas at the end. Little Odom is getting a decent job after this performance. Sadly it will be somewhere else.

 

[mako1331]

Man, fuck Kansas State.

 

[PhDeac]

UMBC just went cold in the 2nd half. Great hustle and defense. Just couldn't get the baskets.

 

[RJKarl]

Wake needs true PG like Maura. Odom does have them playing very well.

He has one assist and 6 TOs tonight. He's a cute player.

He's got great heart, but is where he should be.

 

[Ayo]

#11 for Marshall has the massive schnoz like Dinos but is like twice as athletic and twice as good.

 

[Deacfreak07]

UMBC just went cold in the 2nd half. Great hustle and defense. Just couldn't get the baskets.

Ran out of gas. I hope they get to still party serious.

 

[mako1331]

He took a team to the 2nd round of the tournament. Last wake point to do that was Ish Smith.
