    On the plus side, Paul could get any shot he wanted tonight, and Leonard did fantastic defensively against Sullinger.
  2. bukie
    What do you mean, you people?
  3. bukie
    How does that happen? Divine intervention, I'm not sure how else to describe it. But I'll take it. Even funnier: Paul missed his first 3 shots from the field and had 4 turnovers in the first 7 minutes. At the 13:29 mark of the first half, Paul was 0-3 with 4 turnovers.

    Yeah, at this point, the Atlantic is probably theirs to lose. It would be a little funny if Boston and New York slipped to the 7 and 8 seeds and caught Chicago and Miami in the first round.

    Now the trick is going to be to not give that one back by losing at PSU. All of a sudden, though, I feel like Illinois can beat every B1G team except Indiana this year.
  6. bukie
    I dont even know what this means. That was a good outcome for IU. He was apologizing to IU fans for considering OSU the best team in the conference.

    Haha, Brandon Paul's line tonight: 11-15 FG, 8-10 3PT, 13-15 FT, 2 assists, 7 TOs. Why pass?
  8. bukie
    MSU. Illinois second. Aside from a horrid 20 minute stretch at Purdue, Illinois has actually played well in conference so far.
  9. bukie
    I just hope Paul didn't use up all his shot luck tonight.
  10. bukie
    Oh, they'll rush the floor. Just win, though! 11 seconds! This is unreal.
  11. bukie
    I hate that their best ball handlers are their worst shooters. Except for tonight, apparently.
  12. bukie
    Brandon Paul!
  13. bukie
    Illinois with a near perfect offensive half and still trailing by 5.

    When they started the offseason they had a 3 man rotation. Now they have a 6 man rotation. They also have enough backup outfielders to qualify as having a 7th outfielder. Oddly, the bullpen is far more shallow, since what used to be Marmol-Marshall-Cashner-Wood-Samardzija-Russell now looks to be Marmol-Samardzija-Russell-...

    It'll be nice to directly compare him to a bad GM.

    it's not really that big a deal. all they have to say is that they're willing to listen to offers on everybody, but unless they get a deal they really like, they're not dealing away good players. Yeah, the Cubs being a big market team, they have no need to trade Garza. They're making an attempt to take advantage of a relative down year for available starting pitching. If no team bites on the demands, you still have Matt Garza for 2 years and can certainly focus on re-signing him long term.

    All the computers have the Big 12 better, and at least one computer says the Big 12 had the best year of any conference in the past 13 years. well sec west at least the voters had to put lsu and alabama in the title game, just look how strong the sec west is. lsu and alabama, the two best teams in the country, are in it! Implying I'm using circular logic? I'm saying the SEC West is strong because 3 of the top 5 teams in the country are in it, including the top two teams who have dominated the competition outside of each other. It's circular logic because it only had 3 of the top 5 teams because people voted them that way. It's the textbook definition of circular logic.

    UCLA wins the "nobody has any idea" award, 42nd in Moore's ratings, and 292nd in Elo Basketball.
  19. bukie
    Just for kicks, here's a comparison of every single known computer rating for NCAA basketball teams. Wisconsin averages out to 27th. 2nd in Pomeroy, 63rd in RPI.
  20. bukie
    Uniquely strong? Uniquely strong, not a single computer rating had them at the top:http://masseyratings.com/cf/compare.htm The only reason the SEC was given the top two spots in the BCS was because of the voters. So the voters recognized how strong the SEC voting was this year by voting the SEC strong.

    It continues. http://img252.imageshack.us/img252/9953/extremetheo.png

    All this game tells me is that another conference should have had a shot at the national championship.
  23. bukie
    So, that was some fourth quarter.
  24. bukie
    And...nobody else. http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/7443141/ex-reds-great-larkin-elected-hall-fame

    Also notable: San Diego is where lefty power hitters (like Adrian Gonzalez...or Anthony Rizzo) go to die.
