Looked like Kemba took a walk right before Smith's block

Andrew Smith is so weak with the ball.

Dubious foul call on the Walker layup. I hate when guys yell trying to draw a foul. Sadly it almost always works

Smith isn't only soft. He can't catch. That's two that he has had right in hands and lost out of bounds

I really like that Butler doesn't QQ on every foul or violation. They hand the ball to the ref and walk to the other end of the court. That is something I wish the Buckeyes did, or really any team did. Stop crying.

This is painful to watch.

And no it isn't great defense. It's terrible offense.

Another rebound slips through his hands. In a game where possessions are at a real premium, he is going to cost Butler a lot.

It's so awful. It's a contested shot (miss), offensive rebound, terrible putback, over the back.

There hasn't been any "action" no dunks, no runs, no sweet plays..just boring basketball with average players

I think that it's hard to watch considering it's the national championship game. I think the quality should be better than an average game.

That horrible Uconn offense is making it tough to get the ball inbounds on their own possessions *end sarcasm*

I HATEEEE when players take charges after the guy passes the ball. Like Kemba just got called for. Completely under the hoop, guy passes it and follows through into someone taking a charge...dumb

That's still a charge. And that wasn't under the hoop.

22-19 Halftime

This has to be a NCAA Tourney record for lowest score at half, right?

It was an OK at best call. But when you run someone over, with or without the ball, it's a foul.

And he was on the block, not under the hoop.

There is more scoring going on at the campus of BYU than there is in this game...

Left foot on the block. And I caught it 1/2 second late, he made contact with the ball in his hand still. It was a good call.
