Have to give it to Duke though, despite the refs being in their favor they made the plays and shots down the stretch, Wisky didn't.

I disagree with you thinking Gonzaga wasn't good.

duke, with a little help from the refs, is now the King of the one-and -dones.

1. Winslpow charged(no call)
2.Winslow stepped out of bounds(no call)
3.The ball was out of bounds of Winslow(Duke's ball)

That is the way it is when you play duke.

They definitely benefited from the refs, but they also made plays and big shots late.

I'm glad Wisconsin lost, but Duke got all the calls to end the game.

Duke's guards hit a lot of timely shots.

Peculiar how Wisconsin ended the first half with 2 fouls, and then went on a fouling rampage the second half.

Bo must've decided to just throw all logic out of the window at halftime.

Or the officials called a shitty game, completely turning momentum. Could be that too.

All credit to Jones and Alllen.

BTW, If I were an NBA GM Okafor would be falling down my draft board.

Grayson and Tyus were literally just jumping into defenders who had position and getting calls.

Where is Kaminsky ranked draft wise? He's better than both Towns and Okafor, 22 years old or not.

Yes lol. That's why I wanted Wisconsin. It would've been 3/6. Gonzaga was good if Wichita State was good.

They were both good. Neither was a contender.

Tyus Jones

No he isn't.

But he can play at the next level. But he is not as good as those 2.

Why is nobody talking about Wisconsin fouling an 88% free throw shooter with a 15 second difference between game and shot clock?

Overall he is better than them right now, in three years it may be a different story.

I think he is mid-first round. He would be a perfect Spur.

I have to say the bias towards Duke by the announcers was nauseating. When Grant Hill is the least biased of the 3 you know things were bad. I've always disliked Nantz, but I have always liked Raferty. He is better than what he showed tonight.

This!

One of the worst coaching decisions I've ever seen. That's why K wins these championships and bo ryan doesn't.

Kaminsky would probably have to play the 4 at the next level though.

Overall, he is not better. He is maybe better offensively than KAT. He is not as good as Okafor. He is not NEAR the defender as KAT, and about the same as Okafor (which is basically a cone).

Lol I'm fairly certain that wasn't Bo Ryan's decision. I'm not gonna go back and watch it, tough, so maybe he told them to.
