Winslow does struggle incredibly from mid range though. Hes either slashing, or hitting the 3 at a pretty dang good rate. Has really nice form on his shot as well. He gets compared to James Harden a lot, which is rather unfair to him in my opinion. Kid is built like a damn linebacker and ready to contribute immediately, especially on the defensive end. If im you guys I take him and don't think twice about it.

Mike Brey needs to call up Tom Crean to have him come out onto the floor and yell to the refs "You suck!" 2 phantom calls on Auguste.

LOL at Calipari's confidence in the halftime interview. He's not worried that they're tied at all...More bemused. "(laughlingly) We're tied!" "We'll be fine."

Tom Izzo gets back to the Final Four for 7th time. CRAZY.
Only coach in history to reach 3 Final Fours as a 5 seed or lower.

It's unbelievable that this team did it. A couple months ago they looked NIT-bound.

It's gonna take a miracle to beat Duke, let alone Kentucky (or Wisconsin, which seems unilkely)...

but as I always do, I'm rooting for State and the B1G in general. I'd love a Wisconsin/MSU final, even if the odds are against it.

Not bad for a down year in the B1G, 50% of the final 4, I'll take it all day and tomorrow

A big 10 Rematch would be awesome!! That's what I'm rooting for.

Michigan State wasn't in the same league as the rest of the Final 4. They got there and that was good enough.
How about Wisconsin, though? Always great to see Calipari go home disappointed.

There's a contest at work to pick the winners of the final 3 games. I picked Wisconsin just to go against grain of what everyone picked. Guess I almost have it wrapped up!

I did the same for my bracket tournament, took Wisconsin over Kentucky :D, I just won... even though I had Iowa State in the Final Game rofl.

B1G bringing home both major championships, I'd be okay with that.

As much as this pains me to say "Let's go Wiscy!"
