Who was it that said the pac-10 was so great? Is the Big-10 that bad?

Roy Hibbert has to be Stanley Roberts illegitimate son.

The west bracket is terrible. I'd actually pick West Virgina if I could do my bracket over.

UNC clearly looks like a dominant team. Obviously it only takes one game to change that...

What kind of bullshit is this?

John wooden should put his foot in the athletic directors ass for allowing that. When you have as much tradition as UCLA does you don't put that kind of crap on the jersey.

I love it that everyone is shitting on duke. They were in the final four in 2004 people. Its not like its a 10 year drought. It was obvious they had no post play and depended on jump shots.

I'm glad that so many low seeds are doing well.

I said the Pac-10 was pretty good. Am I wrong?

Big-10 has more schools left than the ACC does.

The west bracket is terrible, especially with Duke being a 2 seed.

What competition have the Heels played thus far? They'll be tested by Washington State. Both Tenn. and Louisville should send them packing.

Funny that you admit Duke's flaws after their season is over. Team o' faggots.

changing the ucla jersey is terrible btw.

I knew Zoubek was not the answer at center way before the tourney. He was injured early and he was the only 7 footer on the roster. Nelson is the only senior on the team. What worries me more than that is the fact that they don't have a center signed yet for next year. Its an obvious need. Elliot Williams will come right in and take Nelsons place, but a center is necessary.

The Pac 10 sucks.USC losing to fucking K St.?

Hibbert cost himself so much money by not coming out last year.I'd rather have Samuel Dalembert.

Duke will be fine.We've got the greatest living coach under 90.

The UCLA uniforms are just like the new Celtics uniform with the gold in the #,absolute sacriledge.I was worried the celts were for real until I saw that.

I watched the Sixers snatch victory from a overrated Celts team last night.When the celts need a bucket down the stretch color me shocked none of the big 3 came up big.I know it was tough for KG with some guy named Reggie Evans covering him.

I agree the gold is stupid. The "throwbacks" are pretty sweet though.


I watched a bit of last nights game, but missed the fade in the 4th. Seems like a letdown game from that big western conference road trip. Sixers are playing well, though.

They just got outworked in the final 5 minutes.There was some choking going on though.I see any team in the playoffs being able to beat the Celts if they play with more or an equal amount of effort.

Cheeks has the sixers playing as well as possible.

I saw Cassell post up Lou Williams a couple times.I hope Rondo doesnt mind coming off the bench during the playoffs.

how can you choke in a relatively meaningless game in March?

Rondo runs the offense better, gets everyone involved, pushes the tempo. Cassell is a better scorer, bigger defender, and better late in games when it's an offense/defense half court type of situation.


I can see them winning it all, but if my life depended on it, I'd say they lose to Detroit. 'sheed was unstoppable last night.

They were up the whole game and were missing foul shots in the final 3 minutes.Missing foul shots = choking.

You won't see rondo in the 4th quarter during the playoffs.Doc will not trust him.I love that doc is your coach.

Rasheed is making me nevous.He's back to leading the league in T's and some games only puts up 8 to 10 points when he seems distracted.

Didn't the hornets come back from 15 down?


Tourney thoughts... - WoolyGoat - 03-25-2008

celtics came back from 22 down at San Antonio.


it happens.


Tourney thoughts... - Anhil8tor - 03-25-2008

hornets > san antonio


the city is embracing Chris Paul. I don't know that anyone there realizes how great he can become. Imagine your best player touching the ball for 80% of your offensive possessions.
