I think Duke beats Syracuse next Saturday.

Syracuse could lose tonight at Pitt.

They are an under dog. Pitt is minus 2 across the board.

Pitt will screw it up. The curse of Charles Smith

CJ Fair is smooth. I posted it on FB about 2 weeks ago. Love his game. How is Ennis a projected top 10 pick and I hear/read nothing about Fair at the next level??

Fair is senior which means he is much older than most other prospects and has less upside. Plus he is unknown defensively as Syracuse always plays zone and supposedly he has short wingspan which NBA scouts hate. He will probably make someones team as he can shoot some and is pretty athletic.

Ennis is a natural playmaker which is something that teams covet.

Nice call, though to be fair it took a pretty crazy shot.

I know there isnt a stat for it but Pitt has to lead the country over the last 20 years in losing games they should have won. Differnt players, different coaches, same results.

Fair enough. Fair reminds me of a smaller Bosh, smooth. Kinda like Michael Redd. Ennis reminds me of Shane Larkin.

My Final Four today

ARIZONA
DUKE
MICHIGAN STATE

Gotta love Wildcats v. Blue Devils championship game!

Yes, I doubt that this will hold. Too many games left before Selection Sunday... Oh, someone is going for 3-peat in pick em contest too.

Fair enough. Iowa would not surprise me at all. They have a great coach.

Micheal Redd was a 6'4" spot up shooter. Bosh is a PF/C.

Shane Larkin? Is that an insult?

How about Kyle Lowery


You have never seen Lowery play right?

Mike Conley?

Lefty athletic smooth shooter, I know the difference in position and height, but you know what I mean. Bosh is more fineness at this stage. Maybe not as good a shooter as Redd, but somewhere in between the 2 of them. I dont see Lowery in Ennis. I like Lowery, praying they dont move him to NY. His career will be ruined.

All these Knicks trades arent gonna happen. Though this nonsense about his career being ruined is insane considering the mess that Toronto has been for years.

I was kinda just taking a shot at you there. It would be good for him Im sure. Article on yahoo saying the Knicks will want him. Maybe they make a push for the Jimmer. He played a good game tonight. Possibly the best of his career.

The Knicks have very few assets. The expiring contracts arent worth as much as they used to be. Outside of Shumpert and Hardaway who else can they move? They cant trade a number 1 until something like 2018's.

I don't know, games in the 50s don't really get the juices flowing for most.

This is the equivalent of Stephan Curry banking a long trey and getting it down. I think Syracuse was ahead for 1 second in the second half. But at the pay window, they never ask how.
