    well...these games suck. pics of daughter?

  • We thought ESPN was bad with trey young... just wait until they make zion the most hated guy in the sport.

  • LMAO @ a Duke player getting into foul trouble. 

Damn he had a good look and looked to be halfway down for Auburn. 

Nice win.  Had this one penciled for a double-digit loss.  Some Freshmen really stepped up today.

Huff is awesome. Pump fakes a three and dunks on a guy in one end and screams, then seats the shit out of zion and screams. Love it.

Oh shit!! That'll be no.1 on SC tonight. They'll air that play 500 times today. They'll probably get to our game late on LHN because ESPN is making them show that play.

Should’ve been a F1 per Refs in Auburn.  Hacked like shit on the arm and still had the strength to finish.

That's fucking hilarious. 

But - I wouldn't pull the trigger on Jank just yet. His roster really isn't that good - that dumbass commenting on the reddit post probably doesn't realize we are coming off of a 3 year stretch of minus 3 scholarships per year. 

Playing Houston I saw two pretty well-coached teams, one of which had better players on the floor. So far in conference we've won the games we should have and lost the games we were expected to. Oh well. That's probably what this team is going to do. Nic Moore and Semi Ojeleye aren't walking through that door. 

Jank will get it together.  He's a decent coach who needed one more stop under a great coach to take it to the next level.  He was a great recruiter to KU when he was here.  I'm thinking he gets SMU back to the tourney, maybe 2 years in a row, and he bounces to the next P5 offer he gets so he doesn't get stale in Dallas.

I want to talk about the PAC12.  They can't be more than a 2 bid league and even that might be a stretch.  I can see them staying at 2 because the committee might not want to effectively relegate them to a "'less than G5" league.  Their KenPom ranks look like this (rank/AdjO/AdjD/SOS)

Washington - 46 - 83 - 27 - 101

Arizona - 51 - 106 - 20 - 57

Oregon - 52 - 84 - 36 - 69

ASU - 60 - 72 - 68 - 64

I refuse to look any deeper than that, except I'll toss in the dumpster fire UCLA (87 - 142 - 67 - 43).  If you have 36 at large bids in a field of 68 then I'm not sure they are a two bid league without some major chalk in conference tourneys like the AAC, Big East, MVC, CUSA, and A10.  Fuck the PAC for even participating in non-Olympic sports (and basketball).

I have to disagree with you. Jank has to go sooner rather than later. I’m happy to explain why.

I'd like to hear.  We liked him at KU.

The talk for Grant Williams to be considered for NPOY needs to start heating up. 43 points, 8 rebounds, 4 blocks, 10-15 from the field, 23-23 from the FT line in an OT win. One of his blocks saved the game at the end of the 2H, and another clinched it at the end of OT. Unreal performance tonight.

Fucking Buffalo.  I like what they’re doing and are fun to watch.  Coach needs another season or two to really show what he’s about before jumping to a bigger gig.

Well, speaking of people who are actually still playing despite being draft prospects, I've been a bit spacey lately, but have we talked about Ja Morant? He's probably the second most exciting player in CBB, and I wouldn't argue if you said you'd rather watch him than Zion. That kid is amazing. 

well now that ESPN has picked up on him i'm sure he'll be all we talk about (besides Zion of course) going forward. We've got a Ja and Zion running CBB; are there any Muhammed's or Yahweh's our there that we can recruit?

Don’t know why but get a kick how the Pac handles their bb scheduling by lumping schools together for road trips.  Like example, both Zona schools are in LA this weekend and both will play UCLA/USC this weekend.  Both UW/WSU are in Oregon this weekend for UO/OSU.

Probably messin' with Bill Walton.

Can’t stand the little twat but Wojo is doing a nice job at Marquette.  

Besides the Horns, the team I watch the most is UH. They’re not shooting well today against Tulsa, but they still play so hard and smart on defense and for an undersized team they rebound great. They’re not hitting their outside shots but still working to good shots. The comparison to what we see from a Shaka coached Horns team is stark.

Purdue takes down sparty.

No way around it. Sampson is a good coach.

My interest in Horns basketball is the lowest it’s ever been. What is sad is I make more of an effort to check the schedule to watch UH games than for the Horns.

South Carolina keeping it close with TN on SECN. 

 

Or not.

Oh shit, foul on a three on the last play of OT!

Big Blue putting a hurting on Vandy in Nashville, up 30 at the half.  Thought there would be a case of KU hangover but so far it’s been nothing near that.

NCAA Teams grouped by rankings in both AdjO and AdjD:

 

Top 10 in both:

Duke, UVA, Sparty 

 

Top 20 in both:

UNC, UK

 

Top 30 in both:

Tennessee, Iowa State, Louisville, Nevada, Buffalo, Michigan, KU

 

Top 40 in both:

Nebraska, Marquette, Cincy, Wisconsin, FSU, TCU, Texas

 

Not listed: Gonzaga, Purdue, Va Tech, Villanova, Auburn, LSU, Maryland, Mississippi State, NC State 

 

That's right folks. Texas is now in the top 40 in both offensive and defensive efficiency. We just don't know how to win games, and that's a shame. 

 

The Kenpom top 10 in AdjO/AdjD:

 

1.UVA- 4/2

2.Duke- 3/6

3.Sparty- 6/7

4.Zags- 1/47

5.Michigan- 29/1

6.Tennesee- 2/28

7.UNC- 12/13

8.Kentucky- 16/9

9.Purdue- 5/50

10.Wisoncsin- 31/5

 

This was in the LA Times Tuesday. Bruins have 3 5stars and 7 4stars and are mediocre at best. What a shitshow

the Big Ten used to do that in the 80s, they called it 'traveling partners'

Houston up early on temple. Are the stands in Houston normally empty? They’re ranked 13 and the place is dead. 

It’s a shame, solid team and it looks like they did a great job on The Hof.

Early start time that’s why it looked empty at first. Fertitta Center was full tonight. Love the atmosphere they created and hope UT takes notes for our new building. 30 consecutive home wins. I have always respected Temple. Fran Dunphy is a hell of a coach too.

Both Michigan and Buffalo lose on the road last night. 

Holy fuck.

The St. John's at Duke broadcast is unwatchable. It's Dukie V and his verbal fellatio on Zion Williamson. They have spent 10 minutes now NOT talking about the game, just sucking Zion.

Nice catch, didn’t notice it flipping through channels earlier and seeing the score, thought I’d check up on it later...  guess not.  

 

Yeah, DookieV is gonna DookieV but Z is a helluva player.  A lot of fun to watch, will be even more fun to see him mope and pout on the bench when Duke fails to reach the FF(fingers crossed). 

24.  Seriously, 24.  A top25 ACC team only scored 24 pts for the entire game...  and Dean Smith wasn’t the coach.

NC State shot 16.7% from the floor, including 7.1% from 3 point range!

Oh yeah, I get it. But they spent 10 minutes talking about him and the NBA, not about the game they were paid to broadcast.
