We should’ve known they weren’t legit from this moment

Gold.

You were right it wasn’t 2 but by the time they fouled him it would’ve been under four close to three and that’s not really enough time to get a good shot. Plus that expectation they would’ve been up by four

Very possible they are up 4 after Cayden Boozer's FT(s) here but I don't see Mullins/Demary taking 3-4+ seconds to foul if Boozer tucks down to protect the ball. UConn has a timeout remaining also, so they are definitely getting a solid look at the rim for the win/tie if Boozer misses 1 (whether that miss is the front-end or extra).

If Boozer completes this pass, the game is likely over or there is a second max for UConn to go full court. It's a dumb play by Boozer (though that's easy to say when you're sitting in the armchair with instant replay ability) - if he loops one over the defense at the top of his jump, it's ballgame.

You gotta watch this amazing little clip. With the sound turned on. The sound is important.

You see the video of Raft and Grant Hill when he hit the shot? Grant Hill was not ok.

I thought Hill was going to be literally sick on camera. Raftery was speechless.

The classic case where one team made a losing play yet the other team still had to make a winning play to actually win the game. Duke never should have given UCONN an opportunity to make a winning play. Duke did and UCONN made a great winning play.

Duke’s loss ensured I will Winn my extended family bracket challenge. Thank you little Boizer

Given how much I hate both Duke and UConn....it's ashamed anyone was allowed to win that game....

That video and the one with the UConn student radio call are truly wonderful.

Congrats to to the winner of the tournament challenge who can’t be caught and the only person to pick UConn. No one picked Michigan which is pretty wild.

Yeah every other bracket pool I'm in has some Michigan picks. Shocked nobody here had them.

Also quite amazing how you can turn around getting only 3/8 Elite 8 teams right.

I concede to the champion. You ran a better campaign than me and your hate of Duke won out. 2nd place isn't all bad though.

 

[slugboy]

Congrats!

I wish I’d picked that well

28yo Yaxel and 1st year transfer Cadeau winning the natty just makes sense. This sport is so dumb.
