NFT: CBB National Championship: Baylor/Gonzaga

Not seeing a game thread.

Surprising first half. Gonzaga pulled within ten. Second half starting up. Let's see how it goes.

8 fouls called on Baylor in the last 10 mins of game time, 1 on Gonzaga
Are these Baylor guards draft eligible?

They look unstoppable.

Every college player is draft eligible no?
Baylor is fouling though  
UConn4523 : 4/5/2021 10:47 pm : link
they hack a lot and haven’t been playing good defense. Gonzaga is attacking the hoop and drawing fouls.
Yeah, Baylor is playing very physical  
adamg : 4/5/2021 10:50 pm : link
Which seems like it was a smart move. Gonzaga looks fatigued.
Wait, there's a player named Flo Thamba?  
Anakim : 4/5/2021 10:51 pm : link
That's awesome. I hope the Magic drafts him.

Stu11 : 4/5/2021 11:03 pm : link
Best of 7. Not saying Gonzage would necessarily win, but these are clearly the 2 best teams this year. Give Baylor a ton of credit. They are a team of men and came in and kicked Gonzaga's ass from piller to post. However I think a best of 7 series between these 2 would be really entertaining.
Laughably bad call

NBC Sports has Kispert going at #10 to the Pels, and us going 16th and taking the PG from Auburn, Sharife Cooper.

Del Shofner : 4/5/2021 11:23 pm : link
while at #16 we take SF Franz Wagner from Michigan - that will cause some "Michigan Man" comments on BBI for sure...

Who's the third best PG in the NBA Draft behind Cade and Suggs? Cooper? That 6'7 Aussie kid?

As far as what?

They don't play anything like each other

Kispert also has very little chance to be a good pro.
Very happy for Scott Drew and the Bears  
Rick in Dallas : 4/5/2021 11:34 pm : link
Drew took over a program in shambles and is now sitting on the mountain top. Those Baylor guards are the truth!!!
Same shit the Zags did to USC happened to them.  
shockeyisthebest8056 : 4/6/2021 12:21 am : link
They took bows for 48 hours while the other team got ready to kick ass. Terrible end to what was a historic season. Baylor simply played it’s A game and the Zags played played and coached a complete F. Props to the Bears.
Once again  
Bricktop : 4/6/2021 12:57 am : link
Gonzaga shits the bed after the media props then up. And Mark Few goes home always the bridesmaid and never the bride. It's getting old at this point.

I had a real feeling there would be a bad hangover after that questionable UCLA win.

But the real story is Baylor. What an amazing run. That is easily the best college team in America. They humiliated Gonzaga from the tip. Absolute domination. Love how they play D, attack on offense and get after rebounds.

They whooped some Zag ass tonight.

What a moronic comment. When exactly was the last time “they shit the bed after the media propped them up”?
Dude, Gonzaga has had  
Bricktop : 4/6/2021 1:18 am : link
plenty of years where the media sweats their regular season and inevitable WCC championship. They've won nothing. It's old. Some good players, but they got exposed again tonight. And badly. Or bigly? Whatever. They got waxed.

I know you're upset. It's tough. But the Gonzaga ball washing is tired. They were destined to get waxed by Baylor tonight and the Bears showed it. That shit was a complete and utter blowout. And it was great theater!

You could’ve said they played like dogshit against Baylor Monday night. THAT is true.

Literally everything else you’ve said are the submoronic Twitter hot takes of someone who has no idea what they’re talking about. They’ve won more tournament games the past five full seasons than anyone. In the last tournament, they beat Baylor by almost the exact same score. Not winning the title doesn’t make them frauds or media creations. It’s a hard thing to do and they didn’t get it done this season. Anything beyond that is nonsense.

hate Gonzaga? They've never won anything. I almost feel bad for them. They thought they had a championship team this year and ran into a buzzsaw. I didn't watch Baylor play all year and they were damn impressive. They would have beaten Gonzaga 10 times of out 10 the way they played last night.

It is a strange reaction. I think what Few has done is phenomenal. Taking a mid-size private school in Spokane, Washington and turning it into a national power. His work should be applauded.

I tend to think the Zags had a miracle shot hangover last night. It probably felt like they won the NC on Saturday night.

I'm not sure I need to say that game again. Gonzaga doesnt match up well with them. I'm not sure Gonzaga would win even 1 in a best of 7. What Baylor did to them they just punished them and they likely would punish them the same way if they played again.

Timme is soft. He can't defend the pick and roll to save his life
I agree Baylor looks like a better team  
Jim in Forest Hills : 4/6/2021 3:44 pm : link
but they are not beating Gonzaga 7 out of 7 times.

Maybe if they hit all those contested 3s nonstop like they did last night. But that's not tenable over 7 games. 43% 3pt success with hands in their face.

Do they win the series, I think so yes. But Gonzaga would win a game or two.
