UCLA-Gonzaga

Clear charge. Timme was standing there for three steps prior to the contact.
The bank is what made it garbage, in my opinion. He obviously didn't mean to do that. To me, that just makes it a poor way to decide such a great game. It'd be like a baseball game ending on an infield single or someone in golf hitting a flying dove on a bad shot and dropping it on the green.
Of course Jim Nantz was rambling about Duke from a million years ago and not the game that was just played.
After what transpired last year, this is the tournament we deserve!
Absolutely. I'll never forget it, And he was totally stand up after the brawl between Cincy and Xavier, when Mack was not. I love him. He's a hell of a coach.
Oh don’t get me wrong. I understand what you’re getting at. I’d have preferred a more traditional (for lack of a batter word) ending too. Definitely an odd way to end such a great game.
I agree.
And he's certainly proven that he is a top coach during this run, and I suspect he'll have UCLA back among the top 15 or so year in and year out.
I'm glad we get to watch the two best teams battle it out. But count me clearly as a Zags fan this year.
Huh? Seriously?
Would you have been more satisfied if the game was decided with a minute to go?
I can't root for Gonzaga to go undefeated. I just don't think they deserve to be recognized as one of the greatest teams of all time with that conference schedule. I've seen better blue blood teams that racked a few losses up. I know they played a brutal non-conference schedule, but you still can't erase those conference games.
You know on replay -
The Suggs block on Campbell - was actually a foul and goaltend not called .
Suggs “blocked “ the shot inside the rim.

Bruins played great all around, maybe the best shooting they have in them, but I credit their rebounding for putting them in a position to win. Limited the Zags to one shot all night and limited the fast breaks. Best game I watched in a long time.
In that instance, it is not garbage. Running full speed, pull up from way out with man guarding u. The call bank there issue is null and void. Great shot
This was the opposite of UCLA-Michigan. Neither team deserved to win that one.
It helps that they shot lights out. Or at least it seemed that way... I don't know what the final percentages were. I don't know that I've ever seen Pitt play a game that could have kept up with either of these teams tonight. Only game I can think of was one against Villanova in the Big East Tournament years ago where we couldn't miss.
I might have to look at it again. I thought it was a very clean block. Didn't see a goaltend at all, but I wasn't looking for that either.
Really? That block started before the ball even got above the rim I thought. I’ve had a few beers but I think I have all my faculties.
In real time I didn’t notice -
But during the highlights Suggs hand goes up inside the rim
He whacks him with his near arm and his off hand is inside the rim.
I don't know I think UCLA should immediately extend Cronin because that's 1 coach who deserves one.
Ehh, he got some of his hand, but to me could go either way. Certainly wasn't a bad missed call
The reply that was best was the one behind the backboard. I think it's real clear that the block was clean and exceptional, but like I said, I never looked for a goaltend.
Honestly I can’t believe anyone is nitpicking the officiating or coaching in that game. That was just a great game played at an incredibly high level and maximum effort by every measure. Epic.
I don’t think you’re correct on this one. If the balls on the rim you can’t pull the net or stick your hand up thru the hoop. But I believe this one’s clean.
