I wanted to like Adebayo cause I'll always pull for a big man. But he's soft and has a pretty bad BBall IQ. After seeing his invisible performance in this tourney and that horrible lack of defensive awareness at the end of the UNC game I think he has legit bust potential. He's a hustle guy who doesn't have elite size or strength, the league usually chews players like him up and spit him out.
We're so lucky because one of these stars is going to get over looked and if we play our cards right we will be the team with the best offer to move up and snag them.
N.C. all the way. Never underestimate the amazing opportunity to slurp up the sweet, delicious tears of one Michael Jordan.
Yes, women do play basketball. Two Elite Eight thrillers yesterday. Stanford was down by 16 to #1 Notre Dame, came back to tie with about 3 minutes left and then the teams traded baskets rest of the game. Stanford by one...Notre Dame by one ...Stanford by one...Notre Dame by one. Nerve-wracking! Stanford took one point lead with 2.2 seconds to go. Notre Dame had ball and got off shot but Stanford blocked at buzzer. Mississippi State in their first every Elite Eight beat #1 Baylor in OT. Morgan Williams, who had 11 points combined in the previous 3 games, exploded for 41. I tried to figure that Baylor women's basketball was a separate entity from Baylor football, which now have allegations of as many as 50 rapes by players while ultra-moral college president Kenneth Starr (yes, THAT Kenneth Star) covered up. But then Coach Kim Mulkey basically said nothing to see here and blamed media for the football scandal. She was also the coach who insisted Brittney Griner stay in the closet at Baylor. So while being upset may not be divine justice ... bye bye Baylor! Oregon, after knocking off #2 Duke, also beat #3 Maryland. Having defeated two powerhouses, their reward is a date tonight with Connecticut. UConn women show that people really do not get tired of winning as they go for their millionth consecutive championship (well, feels that way sometimes), while Florida State and South Carolina are the undercard.
I'm thrilled for the Ducks success...really too bad they have to face UConn now...seems like UConn hasn't lost in a decade
Watched a little of the Uconn game just to see if the lady ducks had any chance. It is ridiculous how much better and deeper they are than everyone else.
