NCAA Tournament Discussion

[quote="Moose" post=335702][quote="redmannorth" post=335700]Really have to admire TT. Play very tough D and smart on O. Really value the ball and wait for the good shot. Giving Gonzaga a super tough time tonight and forcing them to turn the ball over far more than normal. A hell of a Coach Chris Beard.[/quote]

If you look at Beard's track record its surprising it took him so long to get a HC job. He was Knight assistant for years. But then went to extreme small time basketball.[/quote]

How does UNLV feel? They had Chris Beard 3 years ago and then Tubby bolted from TT to Memphis and Beard flipped on Vegas...

3 years later Vegas fired Menzies.
 
[quote="Porgyman" post=335706]When did Owens learn how to play on the man defense?[/quote]

......and not taking random threes. Has a defined role and may go the final 4. Dad had big issues with Mullin and Mitch summer before senior year for lack of development for his son. The die was already cast for him to leave.

Too bad they are meeting this early. Should be championship game. What a pleasure to watch two well-coached teams.
 
[quote="Porgyman" post=335718][quote="Porgyman" post=335715]Nice block by Owens....playing on the man.[/quote]
And another one![/quote]

Great block and save but the save shouldn't have counted as he was already out of bounds. Nice of the announcers to finally pick that up.
 
Owens just made what Reggie Miller called the play of the tournament. Phenomenal block of a jump shot and saved it back in bounds although replay showed he was out of bounds. Regardless, looks like he is going to final four.
 
[quote="Class of 72" post=335721]Incredible block by Owen's to push TT to finals. Would have traded anyone not named Ponds for Moretti and Owens.[/quote]

Did you feel that way last year about Owens?

I wouldn't have traded LJ, Ponds or Heron for him but I did not want to see him go..
 
[quote="L J S A" post=335728]I need to stop picking Gonzaga. They break my heart way too much.[/quote]

I wish my heart broke that many times
