I feel like I'm watching Illinois/Arizona 05.

OU sucks! They just lost their 1 seed hahahaha
I'm glad KU doesn't really have to show up in Austin.
Because my hawks might have shown up and still lost.
The defense totally ignores him outside the paint. It's Tony Allen type shit.

I forgot that this game started at 2 and just tuned in. Haven't missed much I see.
I don't think Duke will win the ACC Regular Season ever again

This may be the hottest I've seen a whole team ever be in one college game.
I mean, give Duke's defense their credit, they've been terrible, but Pitt is going off all the same

Thanks Buckeyes! *barf*
Big Ten Championship clinched, hopefully we just finish off the outright title on Tuesday.

Yep... I'm happy but they really ought to be able to win one of the next two and win the title outright.
Hope we don't get a repeat of "IU loses at home, Crean cuts down the nets since we clenched a tie earlier in the day".

Can we cut down Iowa's nets if we in on Tuesday?

JJ Redick has a podcast. Who knew.
http://art19.com/shows/vertical-jj-redick/episodes/87599d79-defa-4b26-8801-86f5bb354956
On the most recent podcast, he spent the first 4 or 5 minutes going against the "white Duke villain" idea.

I think it's just "Duke Villain". People hate Duke for the same reason they hate the New York Yankees or the Cheatriots (although they're closer to Kentucky). They're consistently good.
Most programs will have cocky players go through... I don't think Duke's any different in that regards except that people remember them because they were good players on good teams.
Interesting. I actually like Redick, even though he's on the Clips, and he's a great interviewee. Will check this out.

It really is a white villain, though. Duke always has talented players, but it seems to always be the white guy getting the majority of the hate. People hate Duke, yes, but individuals on the team get more hate than others. Redick's point was centered around that much of it is manufactured, a media-driven thing. Some guys earn it, Redick admits again (as he has in the past) that he played into it after it was already present. For other guys, it just gets dumped on them because they're next in line.
In this thread for the past couple of years, we've joked about it being Allen's turn and we say Kennard is next in line, but notice how as soon as he does the slightest thing, the articles were ready to go.

I think some conference tournaments start this week. March madness is almost here y'all!

The CIAA tournament was in Charlotte this past weekend, but they're D-II. Uptown Charlotte (which is downtown, for those of you non-Charlotteans) was packed, as usual, for this event. 45 minutes to drive a mile.

Imagine next year when the NBA ASG and CIAAs are on back to back weekends.

ASG is just stupid, though. That whole weekend, nuke it from orbit.

Jay Williams is trending on Twitter for all the wrong reasons.

Can Duke give their ACC Tourney spot to Louisville? Is that in the game?
If these dudes look this bad on 2 days rest in a home game against Wake Forest they might as well just skip getting embarrassed in DC

Well, I think we peaked over the louisville to louisville span. Took too much effort to beat those good teams.
I kinda wish that streak hadn't happened, I was completely at peace with Duke being NIT team this year. They done fucked everything up.
How many months till football?

What's a football, though.
This is Norfolk State's year. Next year: championship.

Weeeeeeeeeee! 2 outright conferences titles in 4 years! Best coaching job of Crean's career imo.
That's the typical Crean big win where the other team nearly wins, but chokes at the end.
Now Morgan & Johnson need to get healthy.

An aggressive regression to the mean by Rutgers.
How about that Bryn Forbes?

It was a reverse jinx - upset averted! (it was also a joke)
He's got the purest stroke I've seen in awhile. I just wonder how we'll do when he's cold or a team shuts him down (like Iowa did twice).
I saw this posted elsewhere.

This Spartans team looks prepared for anything.
