2012 NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament

The Bonnies have been leading Florida State almost all of the first half. We had several people in our pool with FSU in the final 4

Happy as heck, but they didn't deserve to win that game. The inability to hit free throws at the end of the game. And why the heck did coach have terrible free throw shooters in clutch time? Josh Jones is 55%. Ebcenique is 69%. Why are they in the game with 30 seconds left and up by one?

 
I think alabama did everything right. they give up an average 58 points per game, creighton is 3rd in the country in points per game and only scored 58 on bama. Still a good game

 
Its time to get rid of that damn 3 point line. The BB we have now is all played outside the line and its just not a good brand of ball.

Oh comon PB think about it. Problem is a lot of you guys have never seen BB without the line. It was just better ball in the days of old.

Without the three point line, there would be more blowouts than there are now. The three point line helps lower seeds stay in games when otherwise the more athletic team would just dominate them. That is what makes the tourney great, the upsets.

Without the 3 point line, the defense doesn't have to guard as much of the floor. They can sag inside because teams are going to take long shots that aren't worth any more than a layup. So then you have all 10 guys crammed into a smaller area just around the paint. Scoring will go down and fan interest as well. Like it or not, fans like offense.
