Gonzaga vs UNC Game Thread
Apr 04, 2017 01:59 AM #1

Roy's Boys gonna take over 2nd half? This Gonzaga team seems pretty self-propelled. They also make weird passes. Saw three passes with heavy backspin that stopped short of the recipient.

Apr 04, 2017 02:01 AM #2

This should be us down by 6 at the half to a long team shooting the 3 well.

Apr 04, 2017 02:06 AM #3

I can't bear to watch.

Apr 04, 2017 02:26 AM #4

Thought I was going to have to start this thread.

I'm pulling for Zags. Don't want another blue blood to get another NC before we get another.

Apr 04, 2017 02:27 AM #5

Game seemed to be very well played overall offensively.

Apr 04, 2017 02:38 AM #6

Slow, bad start for Zapped Zags

Apr 04, 2017 02:40 AM #7

@Bwag

UNC starting to dominate.

Apr 04, 2017 02:40 AM #8

Spent the last 24 hours in Memphis...was funny seeing all the memphis tiger stuff...Should have worn my KU 2008 NC stuff!

@JayHawkFanToo See if that last steal gets them going.

Then the & 1

Was hanging out downtown...never been there. Not sure what to expect

Apr 04, 2017 02:47 AM #13

Memhis brief:

B B Kings Blues Club was great.

Central BBQ was highly overrated....the ribs very good. everything else, meh. Their sides: probably could find the Always save yellow labels out back in the trash. Gotta at least try. Pulled Pork, supposedly one of their specialties - equal to one of my mediocre smoking attempts.

However, Gus's World Famous Fried Chicken - very good. Definitely worth hitting that.

Apr 04, 2017 02:48 AM #14

Ref's gonna start helping UNC?

Apr 04, 2017 02:48 AM #15

that last graphic seems to indicate so...especially with the quality of that last call

Apr 04, 2017 02:50 AM #16

Great effort their and taking advantage of an opportunity

Apr 04, 2017 02:56 AM #17

@JayHawkFanToo Have been telling myself I would rather see Roy cry & Zags win, but my KU blood runs too deep. i'm rootin for UNC/KU connection even if they do have to vacate later,

Apr 04, 2017 02:58 AM #18

Thought it was a walk... good call

Apr 04, 2017 03:05 AM #19

@globaljaybird

Me too. I have a lot of respect for Coach Williams.

Apr 04, 2017 03:06 AM #20

I'm for zags!

Apr 04, 2017 03:09 AM #21

Karnowski cannot buy a basket...

Apr 04, 2017 03:10 AM #22

Karnowski got away with murder on that play...

Apr 04, 2017 03:11 AM #23

Zebras may take over ? ? ? We'll see on the replay abt a head shot/contact from Karnowski...

Apr 04, 2017 03:14 AM #24

That was a game changing call...

Apr 04, 2017 03:16 AM #25

It's the ref show!

Apr 04, 2017 03:20 AM #26

I"m sorry, and I really have no dog in this fight, but it's looking to me like refs are trying to turn it to the ACC's way here. Karn. has the ball, and UNC guy fouls him which makes Karn fall down. In real time, foul on UNC. But not, let's go to the monitor and voila, foul too on Karn. What's to stop a coach from saying "I think that guy fouled us, can you go and look at it?? That's almost precisely
what happened.

And now both Zaga bigs can't play D because of the fouls, of course Meeks is out with a 4th too. I guess the refs have sucked all year, they might as well suck in the NC game too.

Apr 04, 2017 03:23 AM #27

I mean it's a free throw contest.

Apr 04, 2017 03:23 AM #28

No respect for cheating unc

Apr 04, 2017 03:26 AM #29

SOmetimes I'd like to see these players or coaches just become unglued against these refs. I know it would cost them their seasons or a few games or whatever, but anytime they are tempted to they ought to just go off. Not too many coaches go wild on refs anymore. Players obviously don't but when a ref can stop the game and go look for a foul on a monitor they need to be confronted with this crap.

Apr 04, 2017 03:28 AM #30

Our ft's look pretty good compared to these guys!

Apr 04, 2017 03:36 AM #31

The unc guy had his hand out of bound on that jump ball. Couldn't they look at that?

Apr 04, 2017 03:36 AM #32

You gotta love Roy Williams. NC game, last minute. He's used 1 TO!

Apr 04, 2017 03:37 AM #33

click

Apr 04, 2017 03:38 AM #34

Gonzaga 12-40 on 2 pointers. Horrible

Apr 04, 2017 03:39 AM #35

It seems like Roy has started to figure out the tournament. Maybe Bill can do the same as he gets older?

Apr 04, 2017 03:41 AM #36

@HawkChamp Step 1: recruit large talented big man who must lose significant weight.

Apr 04, 2017 03:42 AM #37

@approxinfinity not a bad start. Dok fits the bill.

Apr 04, 2017 03:43 AM #38

And once again, our championship goes to someone else. They can't take my 1988 championship from me when I was a senior and it keeps me going 30 years later! Next season though, a year ending in 8, I've got a good feeling!

Apr 04, 2017 03:44 AM #39

Man, that game was bad

Apr 04, 2017 03:45 AM #40

@JayHawkFanToo UNC can't hit the ocean...The entire effin season is a FT show till the tournament & then -who knows? That & the OAD horseshit is exactly why I'm losing interest more every flippin year. Comparison: When Olympic BB was amateurs, I followed it intensely. Now that it's pro Coach K, Westbrook, Curry, James adventures, I could care less. Almost rather watch 2 raindrops run down the glass. Hey- I may be on the event staff at Top O' the Rock Legends of Golf Tourney next week !! Chauffer duties ? I can handle it.

Apr 04, 2017 03:46 AM #41

@HawkChamp Doke wont play 10 min a game if the refs call next season like tonight!

Apr 04, 2017 03:46 AM #42

@approxinfinity we did kick the best ones rear. (big guy) Could it possibly been a good coaching job?πŸ€”

Apr 04, 2017 03:46 AM #43

@wissox Is called defense ..... or with Roy smoke & mirrors... Zags really just played like tight assses.....

Apr 04, 2017 03:47 AM #44

@wissox s OK be sorry

Apr 04, 2017 03:47 AM #45

Both teams sucked and the refs sucked too

Apr 04, 2017 03:48 AM #46

@wissox yep. Ten year anniversary of Mario's miracle. Eventually, it will be our time to hoist the trophy again. Next year could be it

Apr 04, 2017 03:48 AM #47

Announcers sucked also, I forgot to mention

Apr 04, 2017 03:49 AM #48

@DanR Shitty game but it is what it is... don't sweat dan they'll vacate soon....

Apr 04, 2017 03:49 AM #49

I should have watched hgtv as originally planned

Apr 04, 2017 03:52 AM #50

@DanR I woulda listened to Harlan-these guys sounded like Grant Hill's Dad who they showed in the crowd many times with his cane & seeing eye dog .

Apr 04, 2017 03:52 AM #51

@DanR I watched bates motel

Apr 04, 2017 03:53 AM #52

@BigBad yeah you are right! Josh would have been out first half this game

Apr 04, 2017 03:54 AM #53

@Crimsonorblue22 that's why depth is so important

Apr 04, 2017 03:54 AM #54

@DanR REALLY BAD !!!!!

Apr 04, 2017 03:55 AM #55

I had some sad flash backs watching, of the 03 title game watching Roy's boys brick ft after ft. Idk who was luckier UNC because that Polish guy (not spelling his name) missed about 15 bunnies or Gonzaga because UNC couldn't hit a free one or a 3 pointer to save their lives.

Apr 04, 2017 03:56 AM #56

@JayHawkFanToo No touch like the Wildabeast in the China shop

Apr 04, 2017 03:56 AM #57

I think Raftery said "how bout dat" in the cash me outside manner about 4 times.

Apr 04, 2017 03:58 AM #58

@HawkChamp we don't have any.

Apr 04, 2017 03:58 AM #59

@wissox Head shot reviewable rule like it or lump it.

Apr 04, 2017 03:59 AM #60

The officiating was a complete joke, hopefully the NCAA sees all the folks complaining on social media. Idc if they say scoring is up people want to guys making plays and not standing at the line half the game.

Apr 04, 2017 03:59 AM #61

I wish Josh Jackson and Frank Mason had 15 younger brothers between them.

Apr 04, 2017 04:00 AM #62

@kjayhawks and playing in a fb stadium. What was the final 3 pt %?

Apr 04, 2017 04:00 AM #63

@Crimsonorblue22 Both teams played like:poop:

Apr 04, 2017 04:01 AM #64

@approxinfinity frank might, didn't he say he had 7 bros and sisters?

Apr 04, 2017 04:01 AM #65

I'd like 5 Masons 6 Jacksons and 4 Udokas.

Apr 04, 2017 04:02 AM #66

@Crimsonorblue22 Jaybirds EASILY the most resilient of all CBB teams this year with the consensus POY, BIFM !!! End of Season !!!

Apr 04, 2017 04:02 AM #67

@Crimsonorblue22 I know he has a ton of sisters but it may be all sisters. I've never heard of a brother

Apr 04, 2017 04:04 AM #68

@approxinfinity true

Apr 04, 2017 04:04 AM #69

There aren't any NCAA restrictions on cloning yet. We definitely should take advantage of that. How's KUs cloning technology? Do we have a study abroad molecular biology program in Russia or China?

Apr 04, 2017 04:05 AM #70

You know I think we need to play more guys after watching this game, I realize with doke out we basically had 7 but I think it pays to be able to go 9 deep. We really were 9 deep in 08, all guys didn't play every game but most of them​.

Apr 04, 2017 04:05 AM #71

@approxinfinity They very well may be but possible lotsa diff Daddys ?! LOL !! At least that was our prior experience.

Apr 04, 2017 04:06 AM #72

So r we going to be in the shining moment?

Apr 04, 2017 04:09 AM #73

That's the most!! I like bridges doubled over after frank scored on him

Apr 04, 2017 04:10 AM #74

@Crimsonorblue22 Nope. GN girl catchya on the game Wed...

Apr 04, 2017 04:11 AM #75

I'm not ready for baseball yet. Haven't watched any Nats preseason. All my fandom eggs were in the KU bball basket.

Apr 04, 2017 04:14 AM #76

@approxinfinity still pretty depressing. So many bad things happened in one game. Bummer!

Apr 04, 2017 04:18 AM #77

Plus, we had a close up of FM, Self hitting the 3 with smiling HCBS and Devonte pumping his chest. Didnt see anything from the Ore game but could have been just their players.

At least no shots of us being sad that I saw.

Apr 04, 2017 04:24 AM #78

Yeah. It's not sitting well.

Waiting for the finalized rosters to come out for the PIT.

@approxinfinity is this where u live?

Apr 04, 2017 04:44 AM #81

!IMG_2927.JPG β†— zags ball! Not a jump ball. They could have looked at this!

Apr 04, 2017 04:51 AM #82

@Crimsonorblue22 LOTS of blown calls both ways. Good pic off TV. Didn't realize it was Bridges. Taped it for Sleeping Beauty so I will look again.

@Crimsonorblue22

Bad calls both ways...

Apr 04, 2017 12:15 PM #85

@Crimsonorblue22 Near it, yes. PIT is a fantastic tournament. high school gym, not a bad seat in the house

I'm wondering if Landen will be there. I assume Mason has shown all he needs to show and will not.

I met Aaron Miles there the first year I went.
