BTW, Michael Lyons of Air Force went for 45 points in a losing effort. Crazy.

Haha...equally as bad for Missouri giving BJ Young back to back traditional 3-point plays...

That continuation was pretty bad.

The refs managed to blow TWO calls in a matter of 1 second, both favoring Arkansas, at Bud Walton Arena.
...and they say home court momentum means nothing.
If Mizzou loses, they can only blame themselves though for blowing a 4-point lead with 30 seconds left.

Clock operator tries to run those secs off well before the ball gets touched. LOL.

Anthony Bennett's likeness to a young Larry Johnson is astonishing. Only Bennett is a better three-point shooter at this stage in their careers. Not sure if his NBA career will match LJ's -- prior to LJ's injury-riddled years with the Knicks, he was on a collision course with the Hall-of-Fame -- but Bennett could easily end his career as UNLV's greatest player if he were to stay to the age that Johnson did. That, obviously, is not likely to happen.

Anthony Bennett just attempted two dunks in a row before polishing off a third dunk attempt in thunderous fashion all on the same play. Considering how many guys were draped on him and from how far out he attempted the first one that was one of the most impressive series of events I've seen all year. The explosion he possesses is second to none.

UNLV wins by 2. Moneyline for the win.

I went moneyline, so hooray for me. Picked up a nice return. Finally, Vegas backs me up. About damn time. Bennett is a beast.

Also grouped my UNLV pick in with a parlay involving Washington. Not too bright, but wanted something to watch late. Looks like they are doing a good job of ensuring that I do end up ending my night on a loss. Figures.

Thanks, UDub. A nice $120 payout before bed to close an otherwise pitiful day of basketball for me. Thanks, Duke.

Saw they won by 2...remembered you saying you'd go Vegas -4.5, laughed pretty hard lolreclegend22;1390673 wrote:I went moneyline, so hooray for me. Picked up a nice return. Finally, Vegas backs me up. About damn time. Bennett is a beast.
There's seriously nothing worse than losing a bet by a point or two.
Glad to see you bet the $line.

Got Moneyline Miami, but really, really wanted to go Clemson +6. Clemson is so bad offensively, though, that they often look like they are playing rugby.
Plus, I want the Hurricanes to continue their hot streak and rep the ACC at the top of the polls after Michigan State (in my opinion) will beat IU on Tuesday.

Down goes Miami. The Hurricanes had a good run the last few weeks. I suspect that the publicity and recent surge of success (especially now that Miami is being projected currently as a one seed) finally got to their heads. That was my feeling on them heading in.
Despite a horrendous first half shooting the ball, Clemson stepped up and made some second half shots when they needed them and did a good job of pressuring the Hurricanes' outside shooters.

Not so fast!
Perfectly executed play there gives them the lead

Apparently Miami is going 18-0 in ACC play. It's crazy how they just keep winning. They're blowing people out, coming back from big deficits, winning close games. Pretty impressive.
