: : to the middle... 6-2 and 7-1 so far. have kentucky and lsu going far- that's bad. did kentucky just pick up a bunch of morons or what? NO ONE fouls someone taking a 3-point shot. and again, free throws are important (sorry UCLA)...
: Kentucky is SYNONYMOUS with morons. They blew a 13-point lead and should have lost on Winn's layup at the end of regulation. The end is VERY near for the Wildcats...of all breeds. Just wait until Syracuse pounds them next round.
: As for your sick obsession with free throws... All I'm saying is, if I had a choice between an 85% free throw shooter who moved around like he was wearing lead shoes, and a 50% free throw shooter who was 7'1" and a complete badass, I know who I'D pick...'nuff said.
: UCLA is going to represent the Pac-10 well -- you heard it here. Unfortunately, they would need to pull something special to take out Iowa State. Just in case, I'm washing my sweatshirt so I can wear it proudly. A Sweet Sixteen is what I see...free throws be damned.
Still, the [non]free throw[ing] did hurt for a bit. First time I really got the chance to watch an entire UCLA game, and now I have doubts as to whether our boys will take it all the way...final four is a shoo-in...Earl Watson makes me uneasy, what with those crazy-off-the-backboard-passes-that-miss-and-pissoff-the-other-team-makin'em-tear-up-a-15to4-run-before-the-second-half-for-the-lead hey now.
