College Basketball 2010-11

I know Balbay is a great defender, but I still wonder how big an asset he is on the court given his offense.

 

He does a lot better job of making his defender work than most non-shooting guards. He's a good ball handler and isn't afraid to attack the basket.

speaking of balbay, he looked like he just got lit by an uncalled moving screen.

He hasn't attacked much in the handful of games I've seen UT play. I'd give him less minutes and J'Covan Brown more, unless there the other team's success was totally predicated on guard play (where Balbay's defense is worth more.) Maybe I just haven't seen UT play enough.

Looks like VCU came to play today.

Purdue needs to get their [expletive] together or this could get ugly.

[Smack]

Purdue chucking threes. Jesus Christ.

The only good thing I have to say about the first half is that we're only down 10.

Marquette really doesn't look like we belong here.

Good. I want Syracuse to wax UNC.

[Careless]

That's unusual

[Careless]

nice foul, putz

[snoodmonger]

geez, what a terrible turnover by UT

What an awesome 4 days of basketball

Brown took too long to start that drive. I thought Johnson got fouled. Edited March 21, 2011 by snoodmonger

Where's the call?

[hawkeyecub]

Someone needs to explain to me why Texas called a timeout up 2 with 12 seconds left when they got the board. And why did Brown walk the ball up with 9 seconds? They would have had time for the putback/foul if he had any urgency.

 

Teams couldn't botch these end of game situations any more if they tried. Now I think Duke is going to roll Arizona.

[SouthSideRyan]

At least it was right in front of Jim Burr.

[Formerly Snayke]

Eh never mind.

The game was in good hands.

[Outshined_One]

Why did Craig Sager steal Roy Williams' suit?

[Smack]

Purdue is playing the worst interior defense I've ever seen. It's unbelievable. I'm not sure that VCU has missed a shot in the second half and Purdue is not adjusting. I know you never play zone, but you're getting raped. DO SOMETHING.

[scarey]

Nice to know that Purdue can't get the call on a choke slam against Lewis Jackson. It's bad enough to have to watch Purdue look like a bunch of lobotomized sloths as they watch VCU run the same play over and over.

[snoodmonger]

seems like a bad day to be a higher seed
