Bradley is probably their best. Jackson 2nd. I would have Hicks 3rd.
As a neutral observer of this game...

that 4th foul on Allen was pure bullshit. First it was an illegal screen, and not enoug to cntact to call a foul. And UNC gets an and 1 after it.

UCLA cheerleader falls during a routine and the guy who carried her off fell while she was in her arms. Tough night for the Bruins.

Perry Ellis, I mean Nigel Hayes with the game winner. Hayes has just set an NCAA record with a GW shot in 7 different years in the NCAA.

Walton just named 20 different people who spoke at UCLA. Seriously, he is fucking intolerabble.
It was brutal.  
bceagle05 : 2/9/2017 11:55 pm : link
And he was listing them with a minute to go in a tight game.
fucking oregon....  
dep026 : 2/9/2017 11:59 pm : link
18 seconds down 3.... and you dont even get a shot off. Inexcusable. The ball wasnt even in Brooks or Dorseys hand.

Why blowing timeouts early costs you.

But Allen had a helluva game last night.
I don't know if anyone watched the end of Indiana-Purdue  
Bobby Humphrey's Earpad : 2/10/2017 7:47 am : link
but I believe I saw the stupidest call ever made on a basketball court by an officiating crew last night.

Final minute, Bryant drives on Swanigan and they both go down in an obvious block/charge call. Could've gone either way - Vitale thought it was a charge, I thought it was a block, but it was definitely a 50/50 call - so much so that two officials call it differently.

So what do these Mensa candidates do? they stop the game for MINUTES while they debate over what the call is. Then get this - they can't agree, so they call a DOUBLE FOUL THAT FOULS BOTH PLAYERS OUT ON A PLAYER CONTROL CALL.

Everyone is bewildered until Vitale breaks the silence and says "Oh that's a cop out! Give me a break." Could be the nail in the coffin for Tom Crean.
Pac 12 ball is a joke

I've seen more defense played in All-Star games.
I really wanted to watch that game  
B in ALB : 2/10/2017 9:18 am : link
last night. But Walton is just absolutely insufferable. Absolutely Fucking awful.

He had an awesome line...

"What an AWESOME pass by TJ Leaf"..... as the ball was 5 feet over the cutter's head and went into the 7th row for a turnover.

There's been plenty of nails in the coffin for tom Crean this season.

There was a game IU played against UNLV last year where walton went on for 2 minutes talking about how impressive the body symmetry of colin Hartman was...for pretty creepy to say the least.

Also in the game the other broadcaster was asking how Luke Walton was doing (he got carjacked like a day or two before, same theif also assaulted an elderly lady) and he responded, not even knowing of the incident, saying "I didn't know Luke had a car".

And then my all time favorite Bill Walton moment (I won't spoil it for anybody). Watch for yourself.

They really shouldn't give Walton UCLA games  
Greg from LI : 2/10/2017 10:43 am : link
He says "we" throughout the broadcast like he's the Bruins radio guy.
I like to see the over/under  
dep026 : 2/10/2017 10:44 am : link
for amount of times he says "conference of champions". Shut the fuck up Bill, your no longer relevant.
At one point Walton was  
B in ALB : 2/10/2017 10:52 am : link
pretty good - still entertaining more than enlightening from a basketball standpoint. But then he became completely intolerable for some reason. At this point I can't watch a game he's doing. His whole tie dye, hippy-ish, cool-old-stoner-but-not-cool-at-all act is fucking nauseating.
Ah yes, the "Conference of Champions"  
Greg from LI : 2/10/2017 11:01 am : link
that has won precisely two championships in the past 41 years and none in the past 19.

Yup, I told me wife that it would be a good game, but I couldn't watch it because Walton is such an ass-clown! I watched the replay of the golf tournament at Pebble Beach.
