Tourney Games - Now

Princeton’s fans have MAKE SHOTS shirts, though they’re considerably less gaudy than the classic NU version.

I wonder if Mitch H talks to the merchandising folks.

So was I and Young came in for the last seconds of the half (probably because one of Duke's big had two fouls) and gave up a layup to Tennessee with poor positioning. I don'T MAKE STUFF UP!
Young was in the game fairly early for a stint, then again later in the half and played 4 minutes in total.

There was a play when Duke turned the ball over and Tennessee scored a basket in transition, throwing it ahead to an unguarded guy. Young was 20 feet away, the closest Duke guy behind the play, but it was an uncontested layup or dunk in transition. Your spin on that "gave up a layup with bad defense" was a "just a bit" misleading.

I was not paying enough close attention to understand why that zone was never abandoned. Lively might have been in foul trouble and Scheyer did not trust Young?

Anyway, that was some bad zone defense. So much just guarding space.

It was the last second basket that ended the half and Young didn't get in front of the guy. Are you ever wrong?
 
I don’t disagree with the fact that, overall, of course, who has the best players tends to win.

But Princeton is showing that so much of basketball comes down to who makes better decisions.
“Best athletes”, or “most-skilled players”, not best players. Decision-making goes into “best player”, too.

They switched to zone because Roach had 4 fouls. At least that is what the announcers said.
 
Mitch Henderson interviews like Carmody used to interview. He, like, answers the question honestly, and he’s willing to say things like “and he usually takes over at the end of the game.”

Dana Jacobson asked a question about Alloco, and to me it sounded like Aloma, and, due to @lou v , I heard ‘aroma’.

I wonder how amazing she smells today. I wonder if Lou is on press row early.

GO CATS GO CATS GO

Two numbers ones out by game 35. it’s almost certainly a record, and a third is at risk in game 36.

And if Houston goes down, there will be as many 16 seeds still alive as 1 seeds: it would be a tournament record that might never be broken.
 
Penn State - Texas game just starting . PSU is a hot team. They have really come on strong.

Princeton! Another impressive win to make it to the Sweet Sixteen.

Beat the Bruins! Go Cats!
