  1. Why not repeat it in the 3rd period too?
  2. Agreed he should drawn up a make the shot play. He shouldn't have called timeout...twice. They weren't going to get a shot off when he called timeout. They had a guy wide open in the corner.
  3. Never really liked FSU that much, and I think they got overseeded based on conference tourney results.
  4. Agreed he should drawn up a make the shot play. He shouldn't have called timeout...twice.
  5. Creighton has missed 5 of their last 6 free throws.
  6. I hate myself already for even having to ask this question...but is there a reason LaHair isn't eligible at first base?
  7. If Cincy wasn't shooting just 33% from the field, this game would already be over.
  8. They've missed a lot more than that, but...yeah, they did.
  9. Texas has 2 points in 10 minutes of game time.
  10. John Isner has had a good month. He beat Federer, on clay, in Switzerland, and now he's in the semis of the Indian Wells Masters tournament against Djokovic tomorrow.
  11. UConn is being exposed. That's three Big East teams that have looked bad today. EDIT: Of course, Iowa State does have to remember that the game doesn't end as soon as you go up 20.
  12. The real shame is that both of these teams won't get a chance against a major conference opponent.
  13. So, not liking Funk makes one a weirdo now? Or is this just Derwood having diarrhea of the fingers again?
  14. That would fall under being a fan which IMO is perfectly fine. Being a homer (when used negatively) is IMO completely different from that. There's a difference between being a "Ron Santo" homer and being a "Hawk Harrelson" homer. Santo got really excited when his team did well, and didn't know too much about the opponent. Harrelson gets really excited when his team does well, and actively disparages the opponent on air. King leans more Santo, and Funk leans more Harrelson.
  15. UNC-Asheville just used their last timeout down 6 with 2 minutes to play. If they had any thoughts about winning, that probably wasn't a good idea.
  16. UNC-Asheville has the smallest front line in Division 1 basketball. Seriously, #345 of 345.
  17. @KenPomerly: UNC-Asheville down to 13% now.
  18. But if the foul is "on the shot", and the shot doesn't count because of a shot-clock violation, then technically, the foul shouldn't count.
  19. @KenPomeroy: UNC-Asheville at roughly 26% to win right now. Began game at 9.5%.
  20. (Shameless plug) Some quick last-minute help to fill out your brackets: http://www.teamrankings.com/blog/ncaa-basketball/seven-high-seven-low-and-seven-where-we-just-dont-know-stat-geek-idol. Thanks a lot, Cal.
  21. Really? Yeah, check his free blog. Its still a longshot but higher odds than usual. Meh, not really a fan of log5 analysis since it's a formula based solely on winning percentage and doesn't take strength of schedule into account at all. It's based on Pomeroy's rating, which does take strength of schedule into account.

  23. If the numbers say they're the most efficient scoring team off the PnR in the league, and they run the PnR as their primary play (33% of the time overall, 22% where the ballhandler cuts to the hoop, 11% when the roller gets the ball), I have a tough time finding fault with the primary offensive player involved in the set. For curiosity's sake, the second offensive option for the Bulls offensively is creating offense from offensive rebounds. Third is transition, fourth is Iso, fifth is spot-up, and they almost never use post-up offensive plays.
  24. The Bulls' primary offensive option is the pick-and-roll, and the Bulls' pick and roll offense is the most efficient P&R in the NBA. So...Rose and the scheme aren't the problem here. I didn't say they didn't run the PnR enough, I said they didn't run it with Boozer enough. Lately I've seen Boozer running it a lot more, which is why I think he's been playing better. What is your hypothesis for Boozer's decreased production and efficiency then? He was injured last year and has no lift left in his legs. He doesn't play above the rim, so his offensive production is reduced to long-range 2's. He's still a really good rebounder for positioning, but he's terrible on help defense.
