FRIDAY'S GAMES: South -- NC State vs Marquette (-6 1/2) at Dallas The narrative in the first two rounds for the Wolfpack was whether or not they'd be tired from winning 5 games in 5 days and then coming back after 4 days rest to win 2 in 3 days. Mission accomplished. Now they have had 6 days off and...

Boy oh boy oh boy, you're up 1 with a minute left and you have some no-name huck up a 3 with 15 on the shot clock. That is some incredibly bad on-court leadership. It's ironic that a team that was so terrible on defense all year played immaculate defense on the game-deciding possession. Meanwhile, I...

Arizona is a perennial joke. They underachieve every year.
Their hoops IQ was negative-30. Final Four talent, NIT brain. Caleb Love built an entire neighborhood for Habitat for Humanity tonight. But hey, great job getting all that NIL money.

**** Arizona gonna **** my survivor pool. And **** the knobs like Joe Lunardi hating on the ACC all season. Best conference in all the land and should have had more teams in the tournament.
It doesn't work like that. Pitt should have been over Virginia but that's it.

michael penix is going to be the best qb in the draft This isn't an outlandish take. I've been impressed with him since his Indiana days (he still didn't get to the pylon in time) and he just needed some good receivers at Washington to really bring out his talent. If he goes to a team with a decent...

And as I said in the above post -- free throws. aTm was 24-39 in regulation. Think one extra make would have made a difference? They also had 2 different long shots with feet barely on the line that were 2's instead of 3's.

What a damn shot. My question - in that situation on defense, why not put 1 on the ball and have the other 4 guarding the 3 point line? Great question. Why you wouldn't put someone on the ball in any circumstance with less than 5 seconds left is beyond me. Normally, I'd foul in that situation but w...

I get it. In my case, it's largely the frustration of the results from a roster whose talent should, at least in my estimation, be better. With all the basketball going on today, the only reason I tuned in was more for MacKinnon and company and because Sid often elevates his play against his buddy. ...
