Agreed Indy is best but Detroit should get it once. Ford Field is an awesome place and a lot of cool places around the downtown area. Just the neighborhoods suck balls

Yeah but Columbus is literally where a school is

Whoa whoa whoa. I am saying they are not calling the fouls themselves the same. They missed 2 big shooting fouls in the first half, now are calling weak fouls both ways in the 2nd half. The refs are calling the game all wonky. Like they made "halftime adjustments"

Detroit is a terrible idea. Nobody should have to spend a weekend in that shithole. Chicago is the best place

He's got 19 points, 8 assists, 3 or 4 steals. I think most will attest on here I have been the most critical of Craft but he deserves the love he is getting today. Other days maybe not but he's been great today.

That's an easy over the back there.


I hate when osu gets a lead then just dribbles out top for 30 seconds.

There are a few older write ups on Matta's style from when he came to OSU. That slow halfcourt with lots of passing is also part of his style. He likes to push hard in transition, but in halfcourt basically just pass until someone decide to take a shot. Apparently he doesn't care who takes the shot as long as it is a good shot.

Oh it's not that bad. Just don't go into the neighborhoods and you're fine. The suburbs are as good as Chicagos and the tourney would be at the Palace.

Also I'm calling DT the Black Hole because when he gets the ball it's not coming back out

That's fine. But in two straight possessions they weren't even passing it. They were just holding it out top.
