This is what high school basketball is all about. If you to see a high scoring game and no defense I'm sure a NBA game is on

I can tell you wtih 100% certainty that I haven't even thought about Kansas during this rant. You can't win it every year, and i'm cool with that.
I LOVE underdogs, cinderellas...but not past the Elite 8 lol at some point, theres gotta be enough talent on those other teams that will eventually end those runs (see Kansas v Davidson). There wasn't this year and now we're stuck watching a 1 man show vs a sound defensive team with no offensive talent

I'm not making you come on here and read these complaints. plenty of ohters feel the same as I do, and this is what this thread is for..you wanna get all pissed at our opinions, go ahead...but i'm not gonna "shut the fuck up" on a message board, on a thread that is about my opinion. When the halftime score is 22-19 and the teams are 20% from the field, i'm allowed to be whiny lol

Some one thinks there clever. Quit crying like a bitch bc Kansas choked against vcu. These teams deserve to be playing here. And uconn had no problem getting separation in the Kentucky game but they can't in this game. Hmmm that sounds like good defense

LOL Uconn beat Kentucky scoring 56 points, I'd hardly say they got great separation.
And no one is saying these teams don't deserve to be here..just saying it sucks that they are

Saying that Memphis didn't play defense is ludicrous. Memphis had two of the top defensive post players in the country. They had one of the top five defenses in the country, for sure.

It's not about who deserves to be there it's about how badly the game sucks dick.

Lol are you serious? Memphis didn't play defense the whole SEASON let alone in that game, along with not making free throws all year long. Memphis was a 5-player "AND 1" squad. Butler would foul all 5 of their starters out in the first half.SportsAndLady;732815 wrote:LOL you see that in every NC game...what KU vs Memphis in 08, there wasn't tough defense? There weren't guys going at it (whatever the hell that means)?
I'm not asking for 85-84...but 70-68 isn't asking for much.
For christ sakes it's 22-19 at halftime..both teams are shooting below 25% lol good defense? NO! bad offense!

Even the announcers and analysts were saying this is awful...Barkley said this game is uglier than his HS girlfriends...yet some on here are trying to say this is a good game because of the defense LMAO

Memphis played in the 2008 National Championship game. Which would be 2007-2008. Which on that site is 2008.

It's a low scoring game because both teams are playing defense. Kenny and Barkley act like this is Kings-Mavs from 2003 lol.

Just like that last shot from Butler.
Was it a good block? Absolutely, but it was a TERRIBLE decision.
