+5 vs Duke

Anyone wonder why Cal is a terrible NBA coach??

This game.

He has Wisconsin by the balls and plays slow down for 5 minutes. 4 poss. 3 shot clock violations. ZERO good looks at the rim.

Wisconsin claws back and wins.

38-1
 
MSU really blew a chance at another title.

I think they would have beaten UW.

Oh well.

Go DOOK!!!!
 
Seeing Kentucky go down did not suck. They were built up quite a bit because of being undefeated, but a lot of that was the SEC schedule. They aren't appreciably better than Duke or Wisconsin.

And the refs sucked in both games.

To be honest.....had the Spartans left Lucas Oil and the other 3 teams stayed inside......

I wouldn't care much if the place blew up.

As long as nobody was seriously hurt, of course. :)
 
And now most of UK's roster will go pro and it'll be Booker and Ulis and some freshman trying to lead them.
 
Big ten football nc big ten basketball nc. Big ten all the way

I vote bad offense, jacking up 25 footers with 30 seconds on the shot clock, guards dribbling it into no-mans land double teams and throwing lazy and weak kick outs into the backcourt (which I hate backwards passes), missing layups, etc. Duke played alright defensively but the offense made their usual bonehead self inflicted plays which good teams like Duke thrive on.
A little of both, msu took bad shots and duke started to trap on ball screens vs switching or hedging, that's why those open 3's went away.

Duke was the better team and most likely would have won over 40 minutes of clean basketball but what we saw was a farce. That game wasn't even that physical but there was more than one foul every minute. We wanted to run Okafor into the ground but you can't do that with 46 total fouls called.

Izzo said that he needs to recruit different players if this is how the game is going to be called. He thinks you need a pg that's going to get to the line because that's all offense is now. He has a lot of respect for coach k so he didn't say more but I think he should have gotten t'd up at the end to prove a point.

Again, duke was the better team and likely would have won but we never got to watch the kind of game we wanted to see. What we saw in the last 10 minutes of every half was a free throw parade with our better players on the bench
 
Kentucky going down eases our loss for me personally

Kentucky's players showed their true colors with this loss. A complete lack of class.

I'm no fan of UW or Ryan, but it's hard to dislike this group. Unlike his previous teams, these guys are seriously good. And clutch too. You look at pretty much every game going back to the Big Ten tournament and they've been challenged plenty of times, but they've owned the last 5 minutes and generally executed flawlessly during the biggest moments.
 
He looked pretty ordinary during the BTT, but he's been nails in the NCAAs.
 
Ridiculous athlete, he just doesn't get the chance to show it off in Wisconsin' s system

Exactly! Also I'm willing to bet a lot of money that Winslow will have a better career in the NBA than Okafor. Winslow is Lebron Junior in my opinion.
