True. While practically fouling-out the other team as well as getting 15 boards and some blocks and intimidations.

Marvin Bagley :rockon:

I would say top 3 locked in at no particular order
Bagley
Anyon
Doncic

The question mark over Bagley is can he produce at this level against NBA sized players / unicorns?

I'll give you an FSU loss or an Orlando win tonight.... but not BOTH!!!!!

If Orlando can't get up a key tank game then I want my Final 4 dammit!!

YA LOYOLA CHICAGO IN FINAL 4 !!! I like their players but now I have a favorite player on that team Marques Townes #5. Would love to see him on the Lakeland Magic team and maybe get up to the Orlando Magic team. They will have a very tough game against Michigan or Florida State. Michigan I think is a bigger program so maybe better for Loyola if they face Michigan?

Good run for our boys at FSU this season.

Our scorers didn't show up last night. A combined 17 points between Angola, Mann and Forrest. :banghead:

I think we really could have gave Loyola Chicago trouble with our length and depth.

Bridges, Evans and Brunson weren’t so hot in the earlier game either. Not a great day for pro prospects.

Kansas beats Duke by 4 in OT.

Wish the Kansas/Villanova game was the championship game, not a Final Four game.

Villanova will win the whole thing. Kansas has two shooters total

I'm taking Loyola. Sure that's 90% heart and 10% head but I just love their team lol. I don't think they truly have what it takes to win it all but crazier things have happened.

So, did you put money where your mouth is? You've been talking about Loyola the whole time, and I hope you were able to cash out! 8-)

I said Loyola Chicago would make the sweet 16, I thought Nevada would beat them.

Ya I know, but even Sweet 16 had to be good betting odds. Just curious if you cashed in?

Duke's guards didn't do Bagley any favors. He was a willing passer out of double teams and never saw the ball again on most possessions. Kansas decided they were not going to let Bagley beat them, and the supporting cast didn't do enough.

Grayson Allen got trigger happy at the end. To his credit, he drew some key fouls, made big free throws, and almost won the game in regulation with that awful shot. I can forgive that one though, since it seemed that play was called for him and I didn't see anyone wide open for a pass off. But in OT he was so trigger happy, especially at the end just jacking up awful three pointers. Allen wanted to be that Duke hero, I give him credit for having the balls, but it was a crime that they barely went to Bagley at all in OT.
