Nah you’re ultimately judged by the team you have on the floor in March, not December or January.

That push,shove by Edey was a foul. He gets away with that type of stuff. Hawkinss would have done that foul on Hawkins.
Best part of Friday Sweet 16 this year is easily the 3ILL v 1UConn 6:09ET that keeps showing up on my TV every 30 seconds. I smile every time I see it.
Vescovi out for Tennessee tonight with the flu.

Duke playing tight against Houston early. I don't fear Houston at all this year. I'd love that match up tbh, and it would be incredibly cathartic to blast them!
Maybe, but any game against that crap is putting your health and destiny in the hands of referees. I don't ever want to see a team I like play them again.
That’s huge. And must be bad to not suit up. Feel bad for the kid - just an extra layer of feeling terrible when you feel terrible.
Crazy. They lose to UVA they don’t make the tournament. Nothing like getting hot at the right time. There is so many good players just need to click and anyone can beat anyone

The Houston/Duke game
Welp, Houston just lost Shead. Doesn't look good at all.

Hope he's ok, but it looked like he planted funny because he was trying to jump into the defender
I mean, I can't stand either team or either program, but Houston is not even playing basketball right now. They are playing a mix of rugby and football but happen to be playing with a basketball. Such ugly basketball.

I am rooting for Duke for maybe the first time ever... would not want to play Houston in a "basketball" game in the Final Four
Please help me figure out a team to root for in Sampson's Houston vs. Duke. This is almost as bad as Auburn/Iowa last year.

NC State looking like the best team in the South Region. They are on a roll right now and have tons of momentum.

Root for whomever plays either next…it may be the only way to stave off nausea
Houston games are boring as hell
Will be interesting to see if he is able to return - didnt exactly look like a standard ankle sprain, maybe a 5th MT fracture or possibly a high ankle
The old timers like me can remember '83 NC State winning three do-or-die games in unbelievable fashion in ACC tournament just to get into the NCAAs, even more improbable than the five games in five days to get in this year.
So it's a fun story to see them where they are now and I hope they get back to a Final Four.
That was a Cliff Livingston-esque free throw by that Houston kid.
I've watched McCain a few times for Duke recently, that guy has a stroke and is a player
Local Rantoul native Kareem Richardson is an Assistant Coach on NC State if anyone would like a reason to root for them.
interesting - was a few years older than me so I didnt get to play against him but I remember him for sure (Keon Clark, Tyrone Nesby, John Cliff, too). Thanks for that info!
