College Basketball Random Chatter 2012-2013 Season

    The problem isn't that Kansas has no offensive weapons. McLemore is a beast scorer at times. The problem is there is no go-to ball handler. That's my observation. Tyshawn Taylor is missed sorely.

    Last night Self said, "That was the worst team Kansas has ever put on the floor."

    An honest coach=a pissed off coach.

    There is a chemistry issue here, there's no other excuse for playing like that. I do, however, have zero doubt Self will figure it out by NCAA time.

    Holy shit!!!!!! What a finish
  • SportsAndLady
    Neither of those teams were any good yesterday. TCU was less awful.
  • Mulva
    Murray State with a big win over Belmont. Bruins won't run the table.
  • Azubuike24
    I'm shocked at both the resolve of Illinois and the complete meltdown of Indiana.

    "WTF" score of the night...Virginia 78, Clemson 41???
  • Laley23
    I told you they wouldn't roll and might lose. Not only #1 team coming to town, but probably their biggest rival, basketball wise at least, right now. I'm surprised IU didn't close out, but not surprised it came down to the end.

    UCLA wins on a buzzer beater by none other than Larry Drew.

    Every now and then I like to do 12 game progressive parlays and just put 5 bucks down..go for a homerun.

    I had 6 early games and 6 late games tonight, I was almost 6-0 in my early games..Maryland -5, 2 seconds left they're at the free throw line up 4, MUTHER FUCKER misses one. So they win by 5, push=loss in prog. parlays.

    Oh well, can still go 6-0 in the late games and win 400.

    He makes both those free throws, I'm shitting bricks for the next 2 hours, ferociously watching gamecast's of teams I could not give two shits about. That's why I love betting (fantasy football too), keeps you entertained when you otherwise wouldn't be.

    My late games, in case anyone cares about me winnign some moolah:

    Gonzaga -22.5
    Oregon -7
    St Marys -2
    USC -4
    Cal Poly -1.5
    (NBA) Bulls +6

    Bad loss for BYU losing to San Diego.
  • Midstate01
    So I went to the Hawaii vs long beach game tonight. Long beach got 17 steals in the second half...and STILL lost by 20. It was awful basketball

    You definitely called it.

    Indiana, however, remains one of the four or five teams that I personally don't want to face in March. Oladipo is scary as shit. Dude can just manhandle his opponents when he wants to. If he isn't the NDPOT, then I would be utterly shocked. As good as Aaron Craft is, Victor Oladipo is better. IMO at least.

    And 'Bazz walked right past his teammates celebrating that shot.

    Mason Plumlee dropped 30 points last night for Duke, his second 30-point outing in three games. The Duke big man is averaging 18.2 points, 10.7 rebounds, shooting 61.3% from the field and swatting 1.6 shots per game. He is without a doubt Duke's most dominant scorer. It's been awhile since the Blue Devils could say that about a center. It feels good.

    He had a down stretch when teams started to concentrate solely on him with constant pressure and double downs in the wake of Ryan Kelly's injury, but he has refound his groove and, when Kelly returns, Plumlee should be even more effective. He's firmly back in the first team All-America and NPOTY race if he keeps this pace up.
  • reclegend22
    Coming against the front-court duo of C.J. Leslie and Richard Howell, without the aide of Ryan Kelly, Plumlee's 30-point explosion is all the more impressive. He is playing the best basketball of his life and looking like somebody who can't be stopped when he is playing at his peak.

    N.C. State, meanwhile, has now lost five of seven games and are in serious jeopardy of missing the NCAAs if they don't pick up the pace.

    Duke fans also chanted "how's your grandma?" At a player who's grandma just died. Stay classy.

    The Duke fans were chanting "Past your bedtime" to the one-foot tall N.C. State point guard Tyler Lewis. That story is false and was started as a meme on Twitter.

    Did you personally hear it? No.

    But even if they did (they didn't), IDGAF. Duke rolled.

    Is it possible that one rogue student chanted something similar to that? Perhaps. But one student does not a chant make.
  • wildcats20
    It was how's your grandma. And it wasn't just one person.

    You don't care, yet you posted twice about it?
  • wildcats20
    Doesn't matter though. Coach K could have said it plain as day in his presser and you would still deny it happened. Duke can do no wrong, I forgot.
  • Prescott
    If duke has it's own thread, why are there duke postings on this thread? I know, rec is just talking to himself on the duke thread.

    Says Mr. Impartial who refers to "Dook" in almost every single post.

    Bottom line. There was no mass "How's your grandma cheer." Just because some lazy reporter "tweeted" it as fact, doesn't make it so. Go back and listen to any audio or youtube clip that supposedly documents the cheer. The only thing I hear is "Past your bedtime." If you hear something different, then you are possibly a rabbit.
