Wait the first game was only 4 days??? That’s not even time for once through the rotation. Seems odd…I always remember the first week being long in the past years.
I just flipped on the game with about a minute to go and figured I would see how it ended as the lead from halftime was about gone. Hell of an ending! The announcers said tourney teams with a 15 point lead at half were like 100+ something and zero. Guess Duke is now that 1.
And can someone who knows about college basketball explain why the duke coach did not take a timeout before the final possession to tell them to just hold it once they got it inbounds? I think they still had a timeout.
They had 1 timeout left, and it’s worth not using it because you might have trouble getting the ball in bounds. Calling a timeout lets the defense get set also, so it’s not always a plus. Duke didn’t even have to cross midcourt, since it was exactly 10.0 seconds left, but a held ball would have gone to UConn. They got it in, and Cayden Boozer had 2 guys in the front court that were very open, he just choked by trying to throw it over guys. At this point in the season, a coach shouldn’t need to tell his guys that when they’re up 2 with 10 seconds left they just want to play keep-away. They just didn’t execute it, it hurt not having a true point guard there.

Back to .500 overall and 4-5 in the B1G which puts them at 8th currently. Season looked like it was going to be another complete lost cause a couple of weeks ago. It's not great still but improvement is being shown.
This shot by Mullins was only the third last-second 3-point game-winner in the Elite Eight or Final Four.
The other two were by Gonzaga‘s Suggs against UCLA in an Elite Eight game in 2021, and Nova’s title-clinching shot by Jenkins from 10 years ago. Both of those shots would have resulted in overtime if they were missed, however. This shot was win-or-lose, so it was taken under greater pressure.
That‘s an important distinction about buzzer-beaters that announcers typically ignore.
Brandon Lowe is going to hit 162 HR's this season, henry davis is going to jaw check anyone trying to score, pirates are going to win the whole fucking thing!
checks calendar, oh.... um... that was just one game, in April
