Game Thread March Madness 2017 - Sweet Sixteen

[PDXFonz]

If we can't get quality from any our three picks we should fire our entire scouting department. Look at what Denver has done and that organization one of the cheapest, most absentee owner in sports. Yes, it's a crapshoot but you can find value with the kind of picks we have.

You could still have two first rounders but the difference in talent from 1-5 is a huge difference from every other player. Sure you can get talent with 3 picks but the goal should be to get one of the next young stars in the NBA.

Monk is incredible.

I would usually agree but we have THREE picks this time. And we could probably even by a fourth with Allen's money. Damn! I mean, if the draft really is this deep and we miss, something is wrong.

 

[Scalma]

Ball is more Rubio than Kidd.

Fox just looks like an NBA player.

 

[Scalma]

Monk is alpha dog

Leaf is whatever the opposite of that is.

 

[stampedehero]

Oregon and Kansas will be Good. and I'm seeing NC in the final 4.

It is a deep draft but it's not full of 30 future hall of famers....

 

[ripcityboy]

Kentucky chokes you with their overall talent as usual.

NC not nearly as talented as either of these teams.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

What!! Why would coach K suspend him when the season is Over? K hosed him to prove he needed him only to get that far.

It was a joke. Wooooooosssshhhhhhh....

 

[PDXFonz]

UCLA in trouble, Ball irrelevant.

 

[Scalma]

UCLA in trouble, Ball irrelevant.

He's a solid player, but not sure I see a franchise player. Fox on the other hand...

 

[ripcityboy]

And just like last year...

Seam Miller = Overrated.

Steve Alford = Overrated.

Dana Altman = Best Coach in the Pac 12 Conference.

That's cut and dried.

 

[Rhal]

I can't wait to see what Balls dad has to say tonight.

Absolutely. Now that Ucla went down Oregon is the only team from the pac to go to the elite 8.

Oregon continue to show their dominance separating from the Arizona, Ucla, Oregon supremacy

Either he will blame the coach and teammates or he will say "if Gelo and Melo were with Zo right now they'd have blown Kentucky out."

UCLA didn't get him enough shots. Why are you not getting 20 shots or more for Magic with a jumpshot?

Told you he's better than Curry. My son would only choke a 3-2 lead.

He's not a good shooter, and he doesn't have a killer mentality. He's not Jason Kidd, he's an even more timid Michael Carter-Williams.

 

[riverman]

I hope the Lakers take Ball with their first pick, I really do. I feel for the kid having a dad like that though...got to be tough to deal with.

I was being sarcastic. I agree!

I hope the lakers take ball too, because he's the one that scares me the least among some of their other options.

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

Wow it is a three!!!! Real time it looked like a two

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

Overtime in the Florida/Wisconsin game. What a shot by Showalter.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Wiscy is such a great program

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

Besides Showalter, how many NBA players do you see in this game? I am having a hard time seeing anyone but Showalter and I see him as a bench player at best. Maybe a spot starter.

Nigel Hayes maybe. But this is the beauty of college basketball, for these kids this is their finals.

 

[ripcityboy]

Wiscy is such a great program

They remind of smart, moral successful people who live in your neighborhood who are so high principled you can't stand them. They always have the nicest most down to earth althetes like JJ Watt, Frank Kaminsky and Sam Decker. And their fans flaunt that shit and how they won't sacrifice academics for cheap success. It's enough to make you want to vomit.

 

[PDXFonz]

Those underhanded FTs and then the huge block

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Homie just got LeBron'd by the white boy...

Only in college basketball, amirite? Lol
