"And we have a break in the action!" *cue commercials*

we've had a break in the action for 30 fucking minutes

 

[ItWasMeantToBe19]

This game is the Friday of basketball.

 

[Elfforkusu]

Butler's inability to get a decent look is fucking pathetic. How the hell did this team make it this far?

They shot a hell of a lot better than they have tonight.

Tonight, they have forgotten how to shoot a basketball.

 

[Mileena]

"UCONN's defense"

Yea, okay. Butler is just terrible.

 

[Dreams-Visions]

LOL at the audible WTF and push off. This is the worst shit I have seen in my life.

YES.

Butler is the poster child for STUDENT-Athletes.

Even when they get a good look they can't hit anything.

 

[TylerD]

LOL at the audible WTF and push off. This is the worst shit I have seen in my life.

That reminded me of holding turbo and pushing the swipe button in NBA Jam.

 

[Tom Penny]

At least now I have and official go to game to bring up whenever someone mentions that they saw a bad basketball game or say one team couldn't hit a shot.

 

[Smokey]

An ugly, down-tempo game is significantly closer to the concept of "basketball" than the dog and pony show that is the NBA.

lol

 

[Kalnos]

The only thing worse than this game is NBA-age.

 

[Elfforkusu]

lol

Fond memories of turning fouls off and scoring 200+ points a game in NBA live '96. Unstoppable!

 

[Barrett2]

This is no longer basketball. This is performance art.

 

[jakncoke]

welp wont be the lowest ever combined

 

[Buckethead]

Tis game is crap.

 

[JABEE]

This is no longer basketball. This is performance art.

It looks like a crappy kids play.

 

[BigJonsson]

Whats with everyone putting their arms up when someone is at the free throw line?

 

[SamuraiX-]

The only thing worse than this game is NBA-age.

Awww... Did you get your feelings hurt? Wanna talk about it, princess?

 

[Seda]

This game is the Friday of basketball.

So the Women's game is saturday? And sunday comes afterward?

 

[jakncoke]

whoa thar..

 

[Ickman3400]

Congrats for hitting the 10 FG made mark Butler, well earned

 

[Elfforkusu]

I bet if Gus Johnson started announcing this game, it would turn out amazing.

Basically, I'm suggesting that this result reflects Jim Nantz's announcing abilities.

 

[truly101]

November is a long ways away. THis championship game was beyond awful.

 

[Smokey]

Other than out of bounds plays...I have yet to see Butler run a set in the half court all game.

gg
stevens

Gus Johnson is awful. I can't listen to the guy.

“@JayBilas: Last time a team was held under 50 points in a title game?  1949.  Harry Truman was President, and Jim Calhoun was 6 years old.”

 

[Kalnos]

Awww... Did you get your feelings hurt? Wanna talk about it, princess?

Derp.

Like I said, this game is abysmal, but this thread is as good as ruined now.

So true :C

UT won a game 11-7 against Temple once because of stalling. Then after the game played an intrasquad game to give the paying fans a show.

 

[Barrett2]

Nice drive, Howard. Last time I saw a drive that ugly, my friend's 50 year old dad was driving the lane at the rec center, then got in a fist fight with the maintenance guy.

 

[truly101]

Even if I wasn't a Duke fan, I'd rather watch last year's game...or KU Memphis was pretty damn good too.

 

[Smokey]

The only thing worse than this game is NBA-age.

don't get mad at us because this championship game is shit. this is a fact. one of the worst ships in a lonngg time.

nba-age is just enjoying the show!

 

[Elfforkusu]

Derp.

Like I said, this game is abysmal, but this thread is as good as ruined now.

Well, there's no more tournament, so the thread was going to die either way.

Best to go out in a blaze of glory fizz of ineptitude.

 

[truly101]

The good news is Calgoon can finally retire before the NCAA throws his program to the dogs.

 

[Brinbe]

impressive d or bad o?

I hadn't thought of this.

In a year or two, it's entirely possible that this game will have never happened!

impressive d or bad o?

Surely you don't get to 35 points without a lot of both.

(1st half: impressive d. 2nd half: oh god my eyes)

 

[jakncoke]

this is really painful to watch

 

[Kalnos]

I said that this game was shit. Can you read?

 

[Agent Icebeezy]

impressive d or bad o?

Stupid O

 

[Ickman3400]

impressive d or bad o?

Clearly it was the overwhelming zone D and amazing team ball.

 

[SamuraiX-]

dat mack

 

[Chris R]

don't get mad at us because this championship game is shit.

I'd Rather watch a single bad game after watching a great tournament than have to watch a single NBA playoff game these days.

 

[Elfforkusu]

Mack should've done that crap 10 minutes ago. Him going KoME was the only chance Butler had, in retrospect.

Clearly it was the overwhelming zone D and amazing team ball.

If you keep beating on that straw man, it might eventually fight back.

 

[ItWasMeantToBe19]

Butler inflating score for respectability.

 

[ConfusingJazz]

impressive d or bad o?

Worst offense since the shot clock.

The sound of this game: Clang. Clang. Clang. Clang. Clang. WHAT THE FUCK?! Clang. Clang. Clang. Clang.

 

[jakncoke]

lol holding the record for lowest fg pct. by 2.5%

 

[SamuraiX-]

DAT MACK

 

[Smokey]

I said that this game was shit. Can you read?

yes, i was referring to your comment about nba-age can you comprehend?

 

[Knux-Future]

S-MACK TIME?

13 in 33 college version?

 

[Agent Icebeezy]

Now he want to start making shots.

 

[giga]

Imagine if Butler didn't miss a few layups and free throws. We'd actually have a game.
