There are fewer greater pleasures in life than watching Duke get eliminated :D

thoughts on Flagg taking/making tough (pressure situation) shots?
He's a freshman, its too early to tell, etc....all that being true, were you not concerned that he missed an open relatively close shot?

Watching the Yankees get eliminated is one.

It wasn’t open. Defender’s hand was mere inches from the ball, and he was coming at and down on Flagg.

I’m glad Houston lost. Not that Kelvin Sampson lost. He’s a terrific coach and deserves a title. But that team — they gum up the game, make it ugly, foul constantly; constantly; no, even more than constantly. Are they effective? Sure. At least on defense, they are. On offense — oof, aside from Cryer and his 3s. The poor shooting, the lack of fluidity, the fouling, the shows of toughness and manhood — I t’s like going back to Georgetown U in the late 80s and the Riley Knicks in the mid-90s. Nothing I want to watch.

I just caught the second half. There’s a reason I prefer NBA basketball.
I’d rather watch WizD at the Takoma Park rec center.

Flagg will hit game-winners during his career, can't make them all. Cooper has excellent BBIQ and played unselfish Bball, his court vision and passing is elite, he is going to be a Dirk/Byrd type player.
