Final four thread

[pisgah101]

Who wins tonight??

Carolina over Oregon as much as I hate it. Oregon hits shots they can win and if they somehow get even an even whistle

The Zags over SC the impressive run is over I think

 

[SoCal Dukie]

I think Zags win and UNC wins; refs cannot allow UNC to lose. Cannot happen!!!

 

[Jnood]

Hopefully a meteor will just destroy the earth.

 

[VaBlueDevil33]

Quack Quack

 

[GARY4plus3]

I'm going with a "Carolina" final.

Cocks with another gritty performance, win by 4.

Holes do what they want inside, win by 8.

 

[DukeDenver]

All I know is Joel Berry sets a career high for blown assists. Those ding dang zebras will set a record for blown foul calls too.

Carowhina doing what 'they want inside' just sounds wrong.

 

[skysdad]

Let's all get together and send some negative vibs to the heels and positive vibs to the Ducks. Can't deal with a unc win tonight. OFC

 

[YourPublicEnemy]

No one pushes off quite like Berry. He can't dribble without doing it and the refs don't call it.

Just think, if the refs didn't save them, UNC would have been sent home in the second round. The officials have given them two games that they did not earn.

 

[YourPublicEnemy]

That whole left side of the bracket was a cake. The committee did a horrendous job at balancing the brackets.

 

[DukeRulesBasketball]

Quack Quack! Go Ducks!!!

 

[pisgah101]

This game wow!!

 

[IPSYCHOSIS]

Ughhhh why do I er this feeling things are shaking out for UNC to win the title or my bad already shaken out .....if sc wins and UNC wins the title game is a blowout imo

 

[VaBlueDevil33]

South Carolina just refuses to quit...kudos to coach Martin for that

 

[Dukesince90]

This game wow!!

Helluva game. There no quit in those cocks.

 

[Dukesince90]

South Carolina's run reminds me so much of NC State in 1983.
Team of destiny? Maybe

 

[TRU CANE]

Love that's Collins kid love his number too lol

 

[TRU CANE]

Imagine what our shooters could do with inside bigs like this

 

[Dukesince90]

I'm enjoying watching that damn big lumberjack for the Zags.

 

[pisgah101]

I can't believe they scored 16 unanswered. I think they might be done now but I thought that earlier too ha

 

[IPSYCHOSIS]

Refs are so horrible is embarrassing

 

[Kingbluedevil]

Imagine what our shooters could do with inside bigs like this

The inside bigs would be on the bench

 

[TRU CANE]

The inside bigs would be on the bench

Lmao

 

[VaBlueDevil33]

Was Collins rated higher than Bolden coming out of HS?

If not he should have been....boy is a player

 

[TRU CANE]

Collins was a 5 star lots of offers but not from Duke

 

[DFerryFan]

The inside bigs would be on the bench

And then transfer

 

[QC Dukie]

Woohooo one carolina down one to go. Let's go ducks!!!!!

 

[DFerryFan]

I guess the cocks finally lost their erection

 

[VaBlueDevil33]

But was he higher than Bolden?

I would have offered him in a second

Night and day him and bolden

 

[SoCal Dukie]

I remember when I was laughed at for saying the Zags were the real deal this year. As stated before; I live part time on the West Coast and have watched them play a bunch. They are really, really good!

 

[TRU CANE]

But was he higher than Bolden?

I would have offered him in a second

Night and day him and bolden

I don't know. I got to see but he's clearly the better player not even close I agree

 

[OldasdirtDevil]

The Zags showed some real toughness themselves. The Cocks came back, but the Zags responded and took the W.

Now go Ducks! Quack, Quack, Quack!

OFC

 

[youngman42]

I wish the UNC game had been first. I've long been a Zags fan but I love how SC plays D and thought they might actually be tougher for UNC.

Oregon has little shot at beating UNC, imo. Largely b/c they lost their big guy and their bench is really, really short.

All that said, Officials in the NCAAs are so bad. That 4th foul on Karnowski was ridiculous. His hands were straight up and the player jumped straight into him. Then, you have players just bashing other players on D or O and it's a no call. There's no rhyme or reason to what the officials do. It's almost unbearable.

 

[youngman42]

Gonzaga def showed mental toughness. In hope against hope, Go Ducks.

 

[Dukesince90]

But was he higher than Bolden?

I would have offered him in a second

Night and day him and bolden

Hindsight is 20/20.

 

[acc hoops]

Bolden was 11 and Collins number 21. Go Figure.

 

[VaBlueDevil33]

Hindsight is 20/20.

Yes I guess so...I'd still take Collins over him any day of the week

 

[K-oach Q]

Shows you need some bigs that can do some things...can't be all perimeter oriented...

 

[Dukesince90]

Yes I guess so...I'd still take Collins over him any day of the week

From what I've seen this year, I think anybody would take Collins over Bolden. You just never know how some players will pan out at the next level.

 

[DFerryFan]

Man-buns and big beards got to go. I don't know why these are the trends now. Man-buns are the new mullets, and why would anyone want to walk around with a bunch of long pubes on your face? For this reason, I cannot be happy for Gonzaga.
