Blue Devils nailing treys, and taking names....

Book it....Duke will destroy Butler....

This is gonna be like Villanova-Georgetown from about 25 years ago. Butler will have to slow the game down and play a near perfect game.

I predict a miserable blow-out final. I'd love to see Butler do it, but I think the psychological effect of playing Duke in the championship, in and of itself, is a formidable obstacle for a team like Butler to overcome. I don't know enough about the strengths and weaknesses of both of the teams since I've only watched a couple of games to make any predictions regarding the actual basketball strengths, weaknesses, and matchup issues each team faces vs each other. I just think the moment is gonna be too big for Butler.

Don't stop believin matt Everyone at UNC will be cheering for butler

[Saint John]

Everyone at UNC will be cheering for butler

And they should be. They get it. Nothing worse than those retarded fucks that root for a team they root against all year and then saddle up to them in the name of the "conference." I'm a Penn State fan and I hate every other team in the Big 10. I didn't root for Ohio State or Iowa in their BCS games this year. I was hoping for bad calls against them, injuries, heart attacks by their coaches and every other ailment/injury from a stubbed toe to fucking paralysis. Oh ... Happy Easter.

The final four is actually anti climatic... unless your team is in the final 4. Will we care in the next year or two if the tourney
increases the size to 96 teams? I know why there doing it...money for the NCAA... money for the network and job security for the mid level college coaches... other than that... why change something that no one is upset about??? (well except for the three teams that think they got screwed by being left off...

[bluejeangirl76]

Or unless you have a bet on it. we did a thing at work, our location manager had all of us pull a team... the person with the winning team gets a great prize at the end (offered up by said manager). I pulled New Mexico State, who lost the same day I pulled it. Bastards.

I'm rooting against Duke because our resident grumpy-ass enigineering manager pulled that one and we'll never here the end of it if he wins.

[Rockindeano]

So tell me blowjobgirl, you think Duke will win?

[bluejeangirl76]

So tell me blowjobgirl, you think Duke will win?

why you being an ass pirate today? I don't care who wins. I don't watch basketball.
my focus is on the NHL playoffs.

UNC should be grateful for that gift they got in the final seconds of the NIT semifinals against URI, and call it fuckin day..

RI also got lucky that they didn't call the foul on the 3pt shot at the end of regulation that would have won it for UNC then without going to overtime. If you watch the replays, the UNC guy was fouled on the 3pt shot with about 1 second left.

I was always taught that the HAND was part of (extension) the ball...judgment call, at best on that play.

In a related story...NJ has supposedly offered Krzyzewski 46 million bananas to coach.....in the past Coach K has turned down offers from Portland, Boston, and most recently....L.A.

He has a LIFETIME contract at DUKE...he won't take it.

Tonight he will pass Robert Montgomery Knight for 3rd place behind Rupp and Wizard of Westwood....he'll pass Rupp within 5 years.....no one's touching Wooden....

GO DUKE!!!!!!!



However, tripping another player, no matter how inadvertent, is a foul no matter what....

I wouldn't piss on Duke if it were on fire, but I gotta admire Coach K's loyalty. A rare commodity these days among collegiate coaches.

I'm expecting Duke to win tonight (unfortunately) but I have to root for the hometown team and won't be a bit surprised if Butler wins. If they can beat Syracuse, Kansas State, and Michigan State, they can certainly beat Duke as well.

I don't think he'll take it either. I'm sure he would be successful in the NBA as good as he is preparing for games (which is the major difference betw college and the pros, IMO...as talent can compensate for a lot at the college level). Unless he has something to prove to himself, he has nothing to gain by leaving Duke at this stage. Some people may not like him, and some of his players are certainly easy to hate (ie Laettner), but he graduates players and wins. It's hard to ask more than that from a college coach.

I'm more of a UNC fan than a Duke one (hard to escape it when you live between the two and have ties to both), but I think Duke will win tonight unless they have a monumental collapse, cold shooting night or major injury.

However, tripping another player, no matter how inadvertent, is a foul no matter what....

No disagreement there. Watching the replays, it's obvious the reason was the RI player who fell into/pushed Graves who then collided with the ball-person. For better or worse, things aren't called in the last few seconds the way they are for the rest of the game. I think it should have been called...but it is what it is.

if LeBron James goes to the New Jersey nets...my money says that coach K might just try it... why not... you have
the richest Russian taking over the team... and maybe they buy LeBron James...and give K power to run the team...
DANG... why not.

General theory is that LeBron will try and get Calipari--and those two are apparently close. That might not be a bad thing for everyone concerned...

Coach K just strikes me as a Dean Smith kind of guy. He's the emperor of his own kingdom and his legacy is set. There is nothing for him to gain and everything to lose.

[Ehwmatt]

LeBron's not going anywhere, book that. And that's not the Cleveland homer in me talking. I thought he was a goner for sure as recently as last summer. He's not going anywhere though now though, not after I've seen the shape of the Cavs, the rest of the NBA, and everything else.

If he signs somewhere else I will post a video of me trying to sing a song ridiculously out of my range or something else equally embarrassing.

I'm with ya dude. Hate Duke. They feel they are entitled to this championship every year. I love it when Coach K starts balling when he loses, and calls them :kids" like they lost a parent or something. Hey dickhead, there's 200 other teams out there as well who didn't win it as well. Go get a napkin you fuckin fairy.

Tonight he will pass Robert Montgomery Knight for 3rd place behind Rupp and Wizard of Westwood....he'll pass Rupp within 5 years.....no one's touching Wooden....

You surer about this? Butler hasn't won 25 games in a row on luck.

At least you didn't say Coach Crybaby was as good as Coach Wooden. The best coach ever in any sport.

Oh and while I'm at it, I hope to Hell Stanford takes down that gum chewing asshole Geno Auriemma and his stable of horse looking bitches the UCONN 'women." Go PAC10.
