Final Four
I can't believe UConn might be winning their 2nd title in 4 years and neither team was particularly good.

Bobby Knight is an absolutely horrendous analyst. Does anyone actually think he does a good job or like listening to him? The game has also badly passed him by. He still doesn't think a 3 pointer is a good shot.

That's just too good. Lavert played great D there.

QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 30, 2014 -> 06:02 PM) No boards and now awful defense. Start hacking and put em at line. Way too many easy 2's At least Calipari is doing Michigan a favor by keeping Johnson in the game. That kid is clueless at guarding the pick and roll right now. Lee was giving Michigan issues when they were just switching everything cause his length bothers all of Michigan's guards.

QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 30, 2014 -> 05:53 PM) Caris needs help. Michigan also needs to rebound even a little bit. Going to be impossible to win if Kentucky continues to grab the rebound every time they miss a shot.

Shabazz Napier is so f***ing good. Keith Appling is so f***ing bad.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Mar 29, 2014 -> 10:12 PM) It didn't matter in the end, but damn Arizona getting that ball seemed like an absolutely terrible call That was off Jackson. Not enough overturn but the prior call was drastically worse. Gasser fouled Johnson before the push off and that push off happens all the time without it being called. Wisconsin got away with at least 3 or 4 drastically more obvious offensive fouls that weren't called tonight.

Horrendous call to decide an Elite 8 game.

Nigel Hayes hasn't made a move without committing an offensive foul yet.

Anthony Lee going to Ohio State. That is absolutely huge for OSU. They badly need someone else who could score for next season.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Mar 28, 2014 -> 04:40 PM) Oh, s***ty Sixers. I'm hoping they lose out just because I think it would be awesome to see a team have a 36 game losing streak to end a season.

QUOTE (Boogua @ Mar 28, 2014 -> 11:31 AM) Michigan is going to lose tonight. I say this based only on the fact that they're -2.5 and it looks like a gift from God. Vegas knows something that we don't to have an 11 seed only +2.5 against a 2 seed. Dayton is +10.5 against Florida, for example. Tennessee is statistically a better team than Michigan. Dayton is by far and away the worst team left in the tournament.

Tigers extend Cabrera 10 years, $300 million
QUOTE (RockRaines @ Mar 28, 2014 -> 09:32 AM) Verlander and Cabrera will cost them 60 million per year. For two players. Wow. I mean who wouldn't want to pay a 35 year old Miguel Cabrera and a 35 year old Justin Verlander a combined 60 million in 2018? That is just good business.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Mar 27, 2014 -> 05:01 PM) It's sad when a movie released in 1990 looked better/more realistic than a pile of crap that will be released in 2014. Bring me zombie Jim Henson. This is a guaranteed pile of garbage. As soon as they announced the director this movie was guaranteed to be terrible.

NBA Thread 2013-2014
QUOTE (bmags @ Mar 25, 2014 -> 04:37 PM) Rather than adding another rule to safeguard NBA owners from running their franchise into the ground, as a fan I'd prefer Adam Silver take on the derelict, terrible owners out of the league. Maybe if more teams were run like San Antonio we wouldn't think there was a talent drop off. No league has more rules to prevent owner incompetence than the NBA, and the number of incompetent owners just seems way way too high. Yep, there are no quality of play issues in the Western Conference. They only exist in the East where you have a number of teams that have gutted their rosters on purpose to tank or have zero idea how to run a franchise (I'm looking at you Michael Jordan). Add in key injuries to two of the 4 East teams with legit talent (Chicago and Brooklyn) and you have a disaster of a conference.

QUOTE (Boogua @ Mar 25, 2014 -> 04:27 PM) Yes. Lots of busts. Can someone please explain what the downside is for the NBA here? No downside other than keeping stud talents like LeBron or Durant out of the league for a year for no reason and there is limited to no upside to doing this. It basically just f***s the players without really providing a real benefit to the NBA.

QUOTE (Boogua @ Mar 25, 2014 -> 04:08 PM) Meh, he was a top 5 pick and he never even scratched the surface of his potential. I'll call him a bust and I don't really care how much he made. Congrats to him though. I mean I guess we could have taken guys like: Marcus Fizer, Mike Dunleavy, Drew Gooden, Stromile Swift, Shelden Williams, Thabeet, Morrison, Wesley Johnson, Tyrus Thomas, Evan Turner, Derrick Williams, and Thomas Robinson (don't care that he is only in his second year). And that doesn't even include really mediocre players like Jeff Green and Raymond Felton who all were in college for at least 2 years and were drafted in the top 5 since just 2000.
