Champions Classic - Chicago

  • Iliketurtles
    Duke shooting under 50% of FTs just something you dont see very often. They need to start hitting them.
  • Iliketurtles
    So tired.... but must watch 2nd half.

    Jesus Jabari
  • Iliketurtles
    And its things like that that make me stay up lol.
  • SportsAndLady
    Foul on every drive
  • friendfromlowry
    Just got home from work to watch rest of the game.
  • Laley23
    Embiid and Wiggins are so damn good defensively. Wiggins will obviosuly play a ton, but Embiid needs more minutes.
  • friendfromlowry
    Too many fouls. Makes it hard to watch
  • SportsAndLady
    Agree about upping the foul DQ to 6
  • SportsAndLady
    I'm just not seeing these fouls...
  • friendfromlowry
    Jesus. A foul on every fucking play. Is this how college ball is going to be this season?
  • friendfromlowry
    Foul trouble: everyone
  • Laley23
    Its still early. I wouldnt be shocked to see the refs become more lax coupled with players adapting. I dont think we will see this after the first month or so.
  • Iliketurtles
    Lol Parker didn't even touch him.
  • SportsAndLady
    What a way to end it (knock on wood).

    Wiggins dunks it, Parker fouls him, Parker fouls out, KU wins.

    He got him on the left arm. Just barely touched him but still a foul with how they've been calling it.

    No one cares about Dr V grades, Dick.

    Yeah I finally saw it on the 3rd replay lol. I'm just tired. This one is over good game KU.
  • SportsAndLady
    Self winks at Wiggins..like don't fuckin do that again
  • Laley23
    So to start the game Parker was unguardable, then Self puts Wiggins on him. Parker then goes 13 minutes without a FG and put up 2 airballs. Wiggins gets his 4th, and Parker immediately hits back to back buckets.

    Kid might be the best defender in college basketball. That just isnt fair.

    I dont follow college recruiting closely, but obviously have heard of the process with Parker and Wiggins. All I have to say about these guys is the hype is real, unlike the Harrison Barnes' and 'Bazz Muhammads of the world. I hope these two get a chance to meet again this season.

    Its a damn shame the Cavs will miss out on both of these guys lol
  • SportsAndLady
    Wiggins is just unreal. Parker, too. But damn that step back J to go up 4 was smooth, and in an incredibly needy time.

    And as Laley said a couple times..his defense is phenomenal.

    He's the #1 pick, hands down. I don't care about anything else. He's #1, lock.

    Hell of a win. Hope KU moves to 2, even though they'll probably be 3.

    Called it. Kentucky ranked way too high. I have them at 18th.

    Side note:

    Hit on an 9 team parlay and took home a cool 155$ tonight.

    Indiana ML
    Kansas +5
    MSU -3
    Ohio +17
    VCU +3
    Syracuse ML
    Utah St. ML
    Louisville ML
    Arizona St. ML

    Best part is I thought I lost because I thought I had taken Oakland +17 vs. UCLA. So I wasnt even worried during the later games. Just checked... Kansas is still PENDING, but yeah, thats my biggest win ever.

    That's why everyone is hyped about this draft. You have those 3. Then you also have a few returning guys who could've gone first round last year (Smart, Robinson III, Cauley-Stein, Harris, Hood). Then you have about another 6-8 Freshman who could get into the lottery (Selden, Vonleh, Young, Harrisons, Embiid, Gordon).

    Right now, you have McGary and Cauley-Stein likely not even in the top 20, and guys who may have gone top 15 or higher had they come out last year.
