Final Four: Kentucky/Wisconsin [open thread] + Saturday Night Drinking Thread
Wiscy's going to need two hearts to pull this one out.
Also Adidas uniforms are turrible.
Alright Wisco. We need you to be the first team in NCAA history to go 70% from 3 in back to back games.
Fun game. Like the 1st half of our NC game.
*sigh*
You could put 3 kindergardners in a room and they would create a better design than Adidas. Incredible.
What makes you think that's not what Addidas did?
"Hey have you seen the line tool on this program 'Microsoft Paint'? And this fill button is incredible!" - Adidas designers
Whistles going against UK? WHAT IS THIS

Agreed. I listened/watched to a little of the Duke one to check it out (couldn't bring myself to listen the Sparty one). Definitely neat for the homers..

So how does Indianapolis get the Final Four twice in five years? Can Detroit ever get it again?
A lot of it has to do with:
- Downtown Indy is not really business centric. It has wide streets. its easy to navigate, and its setup really nice for big events.
- The convention center is amazing there and everyting from great hotels, eateries, shopping mall, Lucas Oil Stadium, the Fieldhouse, etc... are all within walking distance of each other. Very fan friendly in that regard.
- The NCAA headquarters being there helps sway things too.
Dupe post
Vintage Bo Ryan chest bump defense giving UK some fits inside.
Kentucky's coaching is terrible. All they do is try to get the ball in the post, and if that action is denied, they have one player at a time try to freestyle their way into a bucket occassionally with the help of a screen. They rely on individual talent rather than team play.
Honestly, Calipari could just let these kids play street ball and they'd still beat most everyone they play.

F you Calipari, you hack. You're only as good as the NBA one-and-done's that you can "convince" to come and hang out at Kentucky for a year. They leave only as good as they come in, never better.
...but Grant Hill is awful.

He is a beast.
I really want to dislike Wisconsin, but I can't, and I respect them as a program. I can't say the same for Kentucky. Maybe I'm reading too much into this but I see this as the fight for the soul of college basketball. Good vs. Evil. Go Badgers!
While Wisconsin is frustrating to play against, I can't work up a hatred of them when they're not playing us. It'd be good for the B1G to win a national title - provided that team isn't MSU or OSU.
More like annoying versus evil, but I get your point.
Wow the refs are not giving UK anything.
Question...
Is Dekker better this year than Stauskas was his sophmore year? They seem very similar...

how lame
Wisconsin is doing a good job of staying out of foul trouble. When they get beat, they are letting it go. They are not chasing and getting dumb, useless reaction fouls.
This Wisconsin team is legitimately fun to watch - a total departure from those hideously boring teams that won 52-50. Their skill level is awesome.
If Towns fouls out, it's over. WCS is not enough to carry KY.
Andrew Harrison is the x factor.
And if it's less than 5 seconds to go, Aaron Harrison.

You're probably watching on their Team Stream... Watch on TBS for the neutral channel.

The And1s are getting out of control.
