    I kind of thought thats what he trying to say?
    Im not really a fan of Geno (though its not his fault), I think having one program so dominant for so long is kind of bad for womens hoops.
    Super excited for Oregons tourney run (both mens and womens), Ionescu is legit!

    Darn, I just knew Detective Cup would catch me in that lie.

    Yup, you totally got me. Good job recognizing there are only 16 teams left instead of 21!

    UConn very good but not the one dominant team.

    Cal got killed. Zags and Oregon State tied.

    It seems that Uconn and Tennessee kind of dominated college hoops for a long time, for women anyways. For a while everytime I would try to watch it seemed like one of those two teams just wrecked everyone. I think it's gotten better the last couple years, Ogunbowale and Ionescu are really good, and other teams seem to be catching up. Just my opinion though.

    I have a generic question for all you who know more about hoops then me. In college why do the women play 4 quarters and them men 2 halves?

    True, but Tennessee is a shadow of what they once were. I'd list UConn as one of half dozen teams who could win without shocking anyone


    Oregon State won. Gonzaga without injured star point guard. Young lady whose father played for Gonzaga and Jazz...may have heard of him.

    Gonzaga has a Hachimura, Clark, Tillie lineup out there right now. What an awesome frontcourt.

    Yes! Dude's gonna be something special. His size, speed, and ball handling ability is perfect for a modern 4. If he can develop into a good 3pt shooter (I think he can) then he'll be Tobias Harris 2.0.

    Im not 100% sold on his quickness defensively, but I really, really like him. I assume he’s going in the lottery and Im not sure the Blazers have the right type of assets to get him, but I think he could very good here.

    He's quick enough to guard 4s.

    He'd be great here. He's projected between 10-15. There's no reasonable way to get him.

    Unfortunately most 4’s end up having to be able to switch in the modern NBA, he might be able to do fine at it, not sure.
