Sorry, the somewhat surprising run ends here.

Sure hope I'm wrong, but.....

They come with MSDS sheets.

Yeah not a good match up for my Ducks. To top it off I have to fly to the in-laws for the weekend.
Watching a game with them is painful. They just don't understand passion for sports.

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Shouldn't this be in OT?

Perhaps, but it IS basketball-related, and I suppose most Blazer fans not named tlong or BlazerWookee are cheering for the Ducks right now.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

At least we know the Ducks are a far superior team than Gonzaga.

Why, are you offended?

Say what?

Careful, now. The HCP is Don Corleone of S2.

More like Fredo Corleone. I kid, I only kid.

I never quite understood the OT police around here. If you don't want to read it don't click on it FAMS'

IIRC, Pitino has led something like 4 different teams to the Final Four. Yikes!

The Ducks have a puncher's chance in this game if they keep it close through the middle 2nd half and make some key threes that give them confidence that they can win. If they get down big early, it could get ugly very quick. The Duck team doesn't have a lot of history with being mentally tough. A sweet 16 finish would be an excellent jumping off place to go into next season.

Nosebleed tix are >$500 for this game, but I might hit up the free practice session at lunch. Oregon is supposedly at noon.

So you'd rather we had no OT section?

You're just one of the people who for some insane reason takes offense when someone thinks your thread should be moved. Some people just like things done correctly and more orderly.

I would add that there are many sports (basketball)-minded folks who don't even venture over to the OT section. Not to mention that there's a huge amount of people interested in the Ducks success in tourney.

This was my line of thinking when starting the thread here, as opposed to the OT section.

Oregon has beaten UNLV, Arizona, UCLA, Oklahoma State, and Saint Louis. Why can't they beat Louisville? The gap between the two teams is smaller than the media would lead you to believe. Sure, it's not a good match-up for Oregon, but it's not unwinable. The Oregon backcourt just needs to limit turnovers and control the tempo. This Louisville team likes to gamble defensively, get out on the break, and speed up the game. If Oregon makes it a half-court game and controls the ball, they've got a great shot to win the game.

 

[MickZagger]

If Oregon can keep shooting from deep like they have they can win this game. Louisville isn't as good as the media says they are.

 

[Pinwheel1]

I hope you guys are right. The part that worries me is they are the #1 seed overall for a reason. (Not that the selection committee has been right about much)

I just want to see a good game and good consistent calls by the refs. Ducks need to stay close and Kazemi needs to stay out of foul trouble. As does Artist and Loyd. Both will get minutes playing together in order to handle Louisville's pressure.

This isn't my thread. Just thought it was funny he took the time to post not about the topic, but about moving the thread.

Personally, I don't give two shits about what's OT/not OT, but I think the Ducks run is relevant for the Blazers forum. I mean, I'm even having a hard time following my own Grizz down the stretch here in the regular season, because this is the time of year when March Madness takes over.

This is why I love being a college basketball and NBA fan. My Spartans have shot, but even if we fall short, I've got playoff basketball around the corner. It's just a great time to be a NCAA/NBA basketball fan, unless you're like a UNC and Bobcats fan... in that case, you should probably be on suicide watch...

 

[ABM]

I'm starting to get pumped....may even be watching the game with anchor woman. That's sayin' somethin' right there, Ducks fans.

 

[BigGameDamian]

I think they can do it. Just keep those threes raining down.

A hint of irony for D-Wade. Marquette beat Miami tonight.

Mods!

Move this to OT please!
