Wow, Lawrence will be going nuts here in a few minutes.

Good for Kansas. They finally win a damn championship in many many years.

Kansas has everything going for them.

Memphis blew it, inability to make FT's in the end.

Memphis needs a big guy manning the paint... someone like Rasho would do wonders.

Memphis is done. One of the biggest collapses in championship game history.

If Rose had the ball the last 2 minutes this would not have happened. It was CDR and Dorsey melting down, not Rose.

And if their star player had more composure, he WOULD have had it during the last two minutes.

Jeez, finally they hit a 3 in OT. They've been chucking enough up.

Arthur is owning this game! He is dominating in the post and then stepping out and hitting the little jumper.

Big shot by CDR. He misses that and they've pretty much lost the game.

I'm not sure how you can question rose's composure during the final minutes. He was about the only one composed out there for memphis, IMO.

Only down 3. Still got a chance. Kansas really should start fouling.

Rose was the only one who actually hit a free throw in the last minutes
