  1. I feel like I've seen a ghost.
  2. OKC @ Boston tonight 7:40 ET tip.
  3. Definitely not too old for sharks and minnows. Do it, it's fun.
  4. No problem with this one.
  5. Your injuries this year seem like real injuries and not just end of year bullshit. There is definitely some end of year bs starting to creep in but not to the point we need to move the playoffs back an entire month imo. I was still figuring my team and lineup out a month ago. Moving it back a week or two would be less extreme but I'm not sure it's necessary? What do others think?
  6. You're right, I missed 2020-21. And that was a crappy year. Lost in the play in to UCLA. Selective memory. That freshman class turned out to be a pretty big stinker, contributing to the lack of success the next 3 seasons.
  7. Right it was tongue in cheek, but the point being one of the 4 years that are being cited as down years did not have a tournament and that team was absolutely rolling and getting their shit together at the right time. And the year prior they were in the final four. So we are talking about 3 down years, all of which they made the tournament and won at least a game, and one of which they made the 2nd weekend, and none of which they lost to a lower seed. Not bad for down years.
  8. That's totally fair, especially given the context of the past few years but I'm also old enough to remember when many counted him out as a one class/period wonder in 2003 because they hadn't made a run since the Flintstone/JRich class, and again in '08, '12, you name it. A 3-4 year gap in between final four runs is a crisis at Michigan State it seems. It also seems like 98 percent of the other D1 college basketball programs would be pretty happy to inherit that problem. I don't think he's washed just yet, and even if if he was, I'm the type that is of the mindset that he can go out however he wants. Absolute legend.
  9. He had a bad couple of classes. It happens. 30 years, 11 conference titles, 8 final fours and a national championship. The numbers bear out a story pretty similar to the one you're belittling. His teams compete for the tournament every single year, a conference title and final four roughly once every 3 years, and a national championship once every 6-7 years. They are not Duke. They are not Kansas. Otherwise...not too shabby. Also here is a reminder that Cassius Winston was going to win a National Championship in 2020 but the tournament was cancelled.
  10. Actually just counted we have 9 categories still in play.
  11. I'm in a heater with Durdy. 5 or 6 cats still up in the air with these last two games happening. He's got 2 guys on the Blazers and I've got 2 on Detroit. I have DD on the Kings in the other game.
  12. Good watch with Pistons Warriors tonight. Came down to the wire and the deciding shot was a three from.... Checks notes... Draymond Green? Detroit is a fun team. I love Cade and honestly think he has league MVP upside but he needs to tighten the handle to take the next step. 9 TOs including a brutal couple in crunch time.
  13. I need another 30/20/20 tomorrow to advance against Durdy.
  14. Good work dcbc. Looking delicious and the pit looks great.
