I love that the two finals teams don't have the big names....substance over style

Blownt out!!

Man if Duke plays like that the title game will be a snoozefest. But that was a damn near perfect game, so I don't expect that.

Mike Kryfshdergthydhendjrhtpcjen just pisses me off...

Coach K is the man. how he has that team contending every year when 90% of them are white is an accomplishment in itself. the Duke Whitedevils looking like they are gonna whoop Butler on Monday.

90% of them are white. Exaggerating a little.

So if Duke beats Butler tonight, will they have had the easiest path to a title in modern history? I think quite possibly so. But you only play (and defeat) who is put in front of you.

With Kentucky and Kansas eliminated (both of who would be heavy favorites over Duke in a single game or series) and other teams like Georgetown, Syracuse,and Ohio St also gagging you still have to give Duke credit for playing their best ball now and holding serve for 6 straight games.

In the end, a title is a title and people won't recall that they didn't have to beat Kansas or Kentucky to get it.

Of course, if Butler win, it will be legendary.

But it looks like Duke may get title #4--putting them ahead of Kansas and behind only UCLA, Kentucky, North Carolina, and Indiana all-time.

well the charge call when it should have been Zoubek's fifth was a turning point.

well 60% of the starters are white and they have what, one black guy on the bench?

of course if you are black and go to Dook, you are basically a white guy with a tan

 

[peplaw06]

well the charge call when it should have been Zoubek's fifth was a turning point.

I'm sure Zoubek's one rebound in the short time between then and the time he fouled out was the difference in the game...

Rootin' for Butler tonight. Coach K don't need another title and Butler needs their first one. Always go for the underdog unless your team is the favorite

Go Buttler!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[kmp77]

Epic game!! Who's watching?!?

 

[trickblue]

Wow... that tip-in was WAY after the shot clock...

How could they miss that?

 

[trickblue]

Howard has two bogus fouls as well...

 

[trickblue]

I was specifically talking about the charge foul on Lomers when he came back in...

Late in the game... Gave Baylor a 4 point lead I believe then two points erased as a result... and Lomas fouled out on the call...

Even the analysts questioned the call... it was a big turning point...

 

[trickblue]

Another terrible call in favor of Duke...

 

[Yeagermeister]

Wow... that tip-in was WAY after the shot clock...

How could they miss that?

The original shot took more than one second
