Congratulations to Creighton! Next up: UNC

 

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?

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.
