Ol Dirty B Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 Just now, PromoTheRobot said: What breaks? Before it ended up being a 20 point blow out, they had a couple lucky bounces and were lucky to get a couple calls. The 4th foul on Ristic... A couple of times they looked to touch it last before it went out of bounds, especially the one the ref incorrectly came over and overruled the initial call. The 3 that banked in from the right wing, the 3 that went off the rim, the backboard, and then the front of the rim again. The pguard losing control of the ball while the defense collapsed the lane landing right in Perkins hands for an easy two.... All of this was happening when it was a single digit game and I think contributed to Arizona just folding. I didn't say they didn't deserve to win the game.

Their was nothing egregious, just the typical stuff you see in a basketball game. And they capitalized on it. They played great. Just now, PromoTheRobot said: And AZ don't get away with about 10 fouls in the first half? Just 3 called. Breaks are in the eye of the beholder Jesus man. Ok I was wrong. If that's what it takes to get you to leave me alone. They were letting a lot go both ways in the first half.

Seeing what teams outside of the ACC, BigTen, etc. can do is the primary reason why the highlight of the tourney is the opening 4 days. Give me all the UB, Valpo, Loyola Chicago, Butler and certainly URI wins you can muster. Edited March 16, 2018 by KD in CA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But whatever, I'm learning it's a buffalo thing to not actually see what you saw, just see what you want. Now Harris took it to Ayton. He isoed him a couple times and pulled up in his face. He drove and Ayton was the help and still made the adjustments to hit the lay up. He was very impressive.

Remember they loss three games right at the beginning & started out I think 4 or 5 losses early on before the kids even went on holiday break. Since the new year they have been a much better team. I could actually see them winning it all. ✍️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He drove and Ayton was the help and still made the adjustments to hit the lay up. He was very impressive. He posted that a day BEFORE the game. You do know that? Sure he was off with Perkins. Just switch him with Harris. Somebody on the Bulls was going to take it to AZ and that guy posting on ESPN.com sure had a confident finger on that pulse. So... "un-BFLo-esque." Not sure where you are going w/the BFLo thing, but we are always waiting for the other shoe to drop. It sure did drop, right on AZ's head, like clockwork just as Dude predicted a day earlier!
