March Madness NCAA Basketball (2018-2019) Basketball • Page 13

The final 2-3 minutes of every tournament game becomes so extended, I truly don't understand why so many teams kill their own momentum by trying to slow it down at the 5 minute mark with just a 5-8 point lead.

 

St. Mary's plays like that the entire fucking game

 

I hate when I accidentally split picks in different brackets. Go st. mary's and villanova i guess

 

I can't remember who it was but someone here convinced me to take Marquette !

 

All things considered, it could be worse, but the 3 games I've missed today were the ones I took risks on: Vermont, Belmont, Nevada. Had the first two as my de facto mid-majors who make a run to the Sweet 16, and I actually really thought Nevada was in a great position to make a run in the West bracket. Honestly, the only game I thought would be tough for them in the run to the Elite 8 was this opening round against Florida, but still thought they'd take it.

 

I also don't understand why more teams with 5-8 point leads in the final 2 minutes don't switch their defense up every possession or so, just to throw the team on offense off rhythm. Loved that Florida was switching form man-to-man to a 2-3 to a a 1-3-1 during the last few minutes.

 

And that’ll do it for Saint Mary’s

 

Jermaine Samuels is so goofy/uncoordinated but somehow it works for him

 

what the fuck was that end of game

welp, a win is a win I guess

 

We're doing a scoring system where points are multiplied by seed. So if you pick the right upsets, you get a nice reward. I've picked all the wrong ones.

 

Lets go Woffffforddd

 

only two perfect brackets left in the ESPN group lol

I am 11/12

 

I have Michigan winning this one, but if they lost, it would hurt the rest of my pool a lot more.

 

Wofford is good.

 

Wofford's really good. Myles Powell has been awful.

 

Seton Hall just looks lost out there.

 

They looked pretty good over the first few minutes, too. Now it's just painful.

 

really tremendous showing by the rest of the Big East huh

 

Well, the conference was pretty underwhelming this year, so it makes sense.

 

I think Marek may actually be getting skinnier

 

Dammit Nevada. Ended my short run atop the pool

 

Well, if Old Dominion can somehow pull off the upset, I'll be happier about my brackets today

 

I'm looking forward to Buffalo/ASU tomorrow. From what I've seen Buffalo is legit.

 

Love that play with a team looking to hold for the last possession of the half.

 

Myles fucking powell!
