So far the SS games are being pulled by the offenses.

Need to show up scoring. Defense may not save at this point.

Devo and McGill are some basketball savants. Only ones who recognize that UCONN - the overall 1 seed - is good at basketball.

Haha.

Ok...back off..I haven't said anything else..and I wasn't meaning to crap on you to start with...I was just saying the opponent was irrelevant....UConn is a steamroller.

We cannot struggle offensively anymore...we have to continue to play elite defense and pkay really good-great offense ir we are going to get our teeth kicked in from here on out.

We have played a ton of COMPLETE elite basketball this year....we can do it, we just have to do it now when it means the most.

I’m just messing around. Meant that more for Devo than you.

Full disclosure, a few months back when you mentioned how you interact with your nephews, it reminded me of the way my cousins and I interact with one of my uncles.

Probably leads me to be a little too loose with my interactions with you on here. No ill will intended. Enjoy reading your thoughts on the teams especially during basketball season.

Yep. Was texting with some guys in the first half of the first two games and said:

“Goodness. Can't have an off night from here on out. These teams are making buckets.”

An off half can kill you from here on out.

What I hated about AZ’s game plan was that they had easy buckets inside every time they tried it, but they kept jacking threes. They forced an off game - like the Vols have done on occasion.

Clemson couldn’t put them away, but AZ gave it away.

You know what is crazy about basketball?...the most dominant most complete team can just have a half game, or a whole game where they just cannot do anything right, and conversely a crappy team can have a game where they hit crazy shot after crazy shot, get a ton of crazy bounces on turnovers and rebounds...and look like F4 team.

A teams strengths and weaknesses over the course of a season will work out to good or ill and once you recognize and identify those strengths and weaknesses it is kind of easy to see how the season will go barring injuries...but ANY one game can just totally defy those things...and sometimes in the Dance a team has MULTIPLE games go their way with crazy shots and bounces..and with one or multiple players playing way above their established baseline.

And that is why everybody should understand why I always say..."That's just basketball"...especially in this tournament.
