No strategy. Just dribble drive on both sides, contested 3s all game long. I wanted to watch Kentucky lose, and that is the only reason I kept flipping back to it, and more torturous basketball. Ugh.

Hoosierfan2017 Posted March 16, 2018 Posted March 16, 2018 Butler fans are incredibly arrogant and like to pretend that Butler is some elite academic institution. The only time I'll root for them is when they're playing Purdue. Quote

Absolutely hate what happened to Haas and hope he makes a complete recovery. I just want to see our Hoosiers be the top team in the state again. But, and rightfully so, we are going to have to earn it on the court. Btownclouds and chicagoHOOSIER 2 Quote

woodenshoemanHoosierfan Posted March 16, 2018 Posted March 16, 2018 Nope.Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile appI never said final four. But I could see them still beating Butler and maybe to regional final. The operative word is could.Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk Quote
TheWatShot Posted March 16, 2018 Posted March 16, 2018 Officials are really dragging games out by constantly checking the clock to see how many tenths of a second need to be added or subtracted. Just saw a Texas player shoot a corner three and fall into his team's bench without getting touched. The shot went in, and the whistle blew. Hate that crap. chicagoHOOSIER 1 Quote

323SGrant Posted March 16, 2018 Posted March 16, 2018 The biggest effect this has is that now opposing teams only really have to focus on defending the three, rather than attempting to defend both inside and outside, plus they lose bench depth down low big time. If they shoot how they have this season, I expect them to succeed, if they go cold, they'll be in trouble.Yes. When MSU beat PU, Izzo let Haas score, but his players stayed with PU’s three point shooters to minimize their production.Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Quote
BR4IU Posted March 16, 2018 Posted March 16, 2018 Obviously I've never liked Purdue, and up until about 15 years ago didn't even think about Butler. Now that they're playing in an important game against each other I'm kind of surprised but I'm rooting for Purdue. Just over the Butler way thing plus it just seems they get the best of both worlds. If they are average which they have been a few times in the last few years nobody cares because it's cute little Butler. If they have success it's the over the top you get from JMV. Skidmarks 1 Quote

TheWatShot Posted March 17, 2018 Posted March 17, 2018 Kentucky didn't make a three last night. Auburn is 0/13 from deep so far. Gotta love the SEC, chock full of purchased athletes who can't shoot. Quote

DLG3 Posted March 17, 2018 Posted March 17, 2018 I’ve enjoyed watching this Bucknell team stick with MSU in the first half. Getting away from them a bit now. I usually root for the B1G in general during the tournament, but can’t do it for MSU. I despise what they’ve totally gotten away with. I also despise Bridges. Am I the only one who thinks he’s WAY over hyped? So much talent and could be so much better than he is.Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Btownclouds and Iugradman 2 Quote

Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners (raises hand) I liked when they just kept the court that the arena already uses; especially the college arenas. This Bucknell/Enablers game is a cluster****.

TheWatShot Posted March 17, 2018 Posted March 17, 2018 Do any officials call three-second violations anymore? Auburn practically had a campfire going in the lane that last possession. 8bucks 1 Quote
