    You guys do realize that the Celtics stopped trying, right?

    Nah, fuck wins and losses. Its all about the 2nd half point differential. When Nates applying for coaching jobs next year he can hang his hat on that.

    I think the Big East is extremely overrated, and if they get 10 teams in, as Lunardi projects, I won't be surprised if most are done after the first weekend.

    Last year, even though UCONN won the title, only one other team made it to the Sweet Sixteen, and we could see the same this year. That was out of 11 bids.

    I think Notre Dame is probably playing the best of any team in the Big East right now, but I'll be surprised if they make it out of the Sweet Sixteen.

    In the race for the 10th pick, we are 1/2 a game behind the Suns and 2 games behind the Warriors. If only they hadn't waited for so late in the season to make their move!

    Nate's not going to have to 'apply' for coaching jobs, even if he's fired.

    Are you rooting for the T-Wolves over the Lakers?

    Cincinnati's playing real good right now, too. I agree about Notre Dame, they play a bruising style that usually does well in tournament play. Jack Cooley is a Harangody clone.

    My favorite part of the game was when the Mike's went on for at least five solid minutes in the third quarter about how and why Nate should clear the bench and use the opportunity to get some time for the backups. Heck, I'd have sat the starters the whole second half. Then later they came to their senses and went with the party line that Nate was getting the starters ready for the next game. Loved it.

    Even funnier though was when Babbitt was wide fucking open for the three, and he was waving his arms like crazy like he was guiding a jet onto an aircraft carrier, and Matthews completely ignored him and only passed him the ball once he was finally covered. That's team work!

    Actually, Babbitt looked pretty good. He always rebounds well. If Nico had Babbitt's aggression he'd lead the team in scoring.

    Fuck Freeman! He's from Florida and has no ties to this team nor community. He didn't grow up listening to the Schonz and going to games at the MC or Paramount to watch them on the big screen. Easy for him to dog on 'em!
