THE BUTLER DID IT!

Shelvin Mack hit some clutch shots at the end of the 2nd half and beginning of OT.

Florida just took some plain stupid shots down the stretch. Got to love Butler though, that's a team that plays the right way for sure.

Florida totally froze Chandler Parsons out. Reminded me of shades of Duhon freezing Gallo out last season

I was jumping up and rooting because this was an exciting game. I haven't done that during a Knicks game since the win vs Miami.

Yes they do. I made the mistake of doubting them during a stretch in the first half, but I became sane again during the second half.

What a game though.

Exactly. Florida wins that game if they give the ball to Parsons. Instead they like chucking up 3s.

Not at all,Williams was always a mechanical kinda stiff player with no offensive game outside of putbacks and layups Barmes is a much more polished player as a freshmen then Marvin is NOW

Barnes offensive game is improving by the day,he has a nice midrange game and even improved his logn range shot..

He doesnt have that elite athletic ability to be a superstar but hell be a very very solid player in the league for along time

This Zona UCONN game has been a fun watch. Derrick Williams is such a good player.

That's a tough loss. I was really pulling for Arizona. They should have went to tie the game instead of going for the three in my opinion.
