Great stuff!!!
UConn made trouble for the Bulldogs the whole game, blocking or altering an absurd 26.6 percent of the Bulldogs' shots, compared to just 3.8 percent by Pitt and 12.1 percent by VCU. In total, UConn blocked, altered or contested 60.9 percent of Butler's shots, forced four turnovers, and only had five fouls that resulted in points.

They played very well defensively, but I think Butler just took a lot of stupid contested shots. A lot of times a pass or two more would've given them a wide open look, but they'd just turn around and shoot it into their defender's hand.

Uconn was just too Damn tall down low and butler couldn't get anything down low.

Here's my analysis: Butler shot like crap and UConn won. Try and make it as complex or mysterious as you like, but it really isn't.

Prescott give it up. No one on here gives a shit EXCEPT for you. The topic died 2 weeks ago but for some forsaken reason you brought it up from the depths of irrelevance.
No one cares who is right and who is wrong Butler shot 18 freaking percent that's terrible, and no one gives a shit why. Jesus you're stubborn.

Just food for thought based on an article researched over the last 10 days and published on the 4-13-11.UCONNS defense was magnificent and the numbers prove that.Prescott give it up.
