Two questions since I don’t want to try and find the posts about them but was Manek’s goal tending really a goal tend and how in the world was Braun able to throw up an air ball and catch his own air ball a half second later and put it in? You can’t pass to yourself and Love never touched the ball. Those two plays were very close to each other. The announcers never said anything and they didn’t replay and talk about them.

Didn't look like goal tending to me and the crowd reaction was pretty telling on the replay they got and we didn't. TV coverage of this tourney was poo. Too much pushing their narrative and not enough showing of replays of key plays and actually telling us what's going on. So many times they'd be talking about whatever and I'm trying to figure out was it a foul? If so on who? Or did they call traveling, out of bounds? I have no idea what's going on because they're talking about who knows what and showing shots of the crowd.

I realized yesterday that Grant Hill has some really, awful, analysis sometimes. 

Kind of glad Raftery has quit the "look at this kid" lines over and over again. Shitt was annoying after a while.

Yes we can they lost after one of biggest leads. We have a lot to say, it would be no different the other way around.

Oh you CAN, it just looks really really dumb…  They pretty much owned Coach K twice, while Duke had a much better team and UNC had a rookie coach. Duke fans should probably lay low for a while.

Much better team is an understatement. Duke has 4 first rounders, and 1 second rounder/borderline first rounder right now.

That’s what I thought and I heard the replay of the goal tend by the crowd. I don’t know why they don’t check goal tending on the replays but that pass to himself was ridiculous. That was a big 4 point swing right there. I think Kansas probably still wins because UNC couldn’t buy a bucket in the 2nd half. Love needed to do some fakes/drives with passing because he was bricking the poo out of the basket.

Yeah Love was definitely not having a good night. I wonder how much him rolling his ankle affected his shot. What's crazy is we still had a chance to take the lead and possibly win with just under a minute to go. But when Bacot, went down that basically sealed it.

Very proud of these Tar Heels!! Their first possession in the second half you could tell that they were going to work clock and take good shots. But,it never works out to take foot off gas. Kansas was deeper and stronger. It might have hurt less getting blown out. BUT, it was a GREAT EFFORT!!

      Rams are willing to deal one of the 1st rounders for all-pro talent in secondary

      By strato · Posted

      They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world.

      I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).

      It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
