Obviously Michigan can shoot. But if they aren't shooting well I think KY and LOU both control a defensive struggle.
Who said Kentucky had no chance against Wichita? Lol do you even watch college basketball?

That's a really bad charge call on Sparty. Virginia dude slid in LONG after he was in the air, let alone started his upward motion.

If Sparty's going to win this, it'll have to be through Payne.

Amazing how MSU finally has all their guys healthy, yet they dont. Appling has been a ghost for a month now. Keep Trice out there and have him/Denzel/Harris handle the ball.

Hes playing horrible though. They double him in the post and he turns it over, and when he pops out he seems timid and has made quite a few bad passes up top too

They havent made even an effort to get Harris the ball this half, they need to feed him the ball as much as they can

Dawson. He has the mismatch at the 4, imo. No one can stay in front of him on Virginia.

And as I type that, Dawson blows by his man for a lay-up.

I hated watching Butler when they made their runs. I hate watching this Virginia squad. Ive hated watching Wisconsin for years (until this season). Its just boring basketball to me.
Difference of opinion. I love defensive bball. I think it takes more effort and more of a team effort. Just me.
But, I get where you are coming from. I love up and down bball myself.
UVA on offense is boring as hell, but they are the best defensive team in years to me.

He is just floating though. He needs to slash/drive. Ive touted all year that I think he is the best player in the B1G, but he is playing passive. His shot is off, get to the rim young man.

Yeah, no question they are a great team, especially defensively. Its just a style I cannot stand to watch. I also could never play that way, so Im sure that has a ton to do with why I hate anything that isnt fast paced lol

Yeah thats one thing i noticed watchign his Highlight tape in HS. Granted it is in HS, but he was a slasher and finished at the rim with dunks and everything. Then he got to college and its like he forgot how to slash and pretty much became a spot up shooter.

Edit, Harris that is

He has slashed a ton this year, just not tonight. His injury forced him to stop driving as much earlier in the year, but recently he has been really aggressive. For whatever reason, tonight is the opposite.
