Day 3 musings... --I hope RonnieFranchise ponied up the cash for those 2 games tonight. Those were beauties. --I feel bad for Oakland cuz they had that game but they kept leaving that corner open in their zone and they weren't completely buttoned up. What a great run and it's nice to see a 40-year c...

Virginia was a lesser-case same scenario as Oklahoma was a few years ago when they had Trae Young -- rip thru the non-con and start the season something like 13-0 and then completely fall apart once you get into your league schedule. The committee would have been justified in leaving Oklahoma out ev...

Day 2 Musings: --SEC! SEC! SEC! Bama & A&M lit up the scoreboard in the night session to save the conference's face a little bit but it's fun to watch that conference get arrows slung at it. --I was wondering if I was ever going to get an upset right.

If you’re FAU, how is that the look you want at the end of the game?
They should have never been in that position. They had 2 fouls to give and should have made sure to use one as soon as NW made the move to go to the basket. Incredibly dumb.

That's a good question...what is value? There's nothing better than a winning bet, we all know that. What I've come to realize (vs younger me) is that no matter what you do - whether its an analytical approach, whether you're the best at diagnosing the game you're betting, whatever it is...you're g...

Meanwhile, I wanna know how the f you came up with that 34-2 run, @mikey. That’s otherworldly. After yesterday, I feel like a basketball dumbass.
.because this week was the first college basketball I've watched this year.
This might be the most infuriating thing I read the entire day. ;)

What is ‘value’ anyway? If Nuggets is his prediction, then why not bet it at the plus odds? Are the Wolves better ‘value’? If the Wolves get whacked 1st round, that value is a big fat zero.

Evening musings: --RIP all those who immediately had McNeese & Samford facing off in the 2nd round.

Been saying it all season -- Kentucky's defense and lack of hoops IQ was going to end them sooner than they want in March. Calipari has shown over and over that he can't coach talented players. In this case, he grossly mismanaged his lineup, stubbornly having DJ Wagner out there at all times while R...

That has all the makings for a Calipari meltdown -- a guy for Oakland who can just drill 3's and a defense in Kentucky who isn't bright enough to figure it out. Plus, Oakland's throwing a zone at them and I don't expect Calipari to understand how to scheme against it.

Very impressive choke by Nevada. What's the fastest way to yak a big lead? Play clockball with 8:00 left and hope the time runs out. Bob Knight is spinning in his grave at that lack of coaching acumen by Alford.
