it's sad Clark has become pretty much unlistenable.....I'm not sure what happened, but at some point unintelligent ramblings have commonly been flowing from his mouth.

It's the Rafter-ization of basketball commentary.

Bill Raftery is the absolute fucking worst. There isn't a word that comes out of his mouth that isn't part of some ham-fisted catch phrase. Clark is simply cruising in this man's wake.

it's not the catch phrases, its the analysis. He's just so wrong on 50% of his insight, I'm ready to hit my mute button.

Well Sparty got it down to a point at halftime.

Yup. All 3 Big 10 Sweet 16 games have started with a pretty terrible first 16 minutes, and closed with a 4 minute flurry to close the gap going into half-time. In each game I've felt the Big 10 cannot come out and play any worse than they did in the first half.

I hope MSU can eliminate some of their awful mental mistakes and squeeze a win out. I'd like to see Adrien Payne do more from the post. They're forcing him baseline into Plumlee who is ultra aggressive. There should be some easy dump-downs to Nix or Costello.

I think Nantz is busting a nut every time Curry touches the ball...embarrassing difference between when he's announcing a Sparty player and when he's announcing a shot by Curry.

Kid is going off though. MSU might want to consider guarding him. 5/6 from three and a lot have been uncontested.

Christ....6/7 from 3 for Curry. Kid is single-handedly keeping Duke ahead in this game.

Have no idea why Trice just entered the game for Appling. Trice might be -10 in point differential tonight. Terrible defender and an offesnive liability because he can't dribble.

That's 3 on Plumlee now and I think Clark is right - when he whacked Nix in the head, he pulled a muscle in his side. Now that he has to sit for a while, maybe he'll tighten up a bit.

The other thing is now Batboy has to guard Nix and/or Payne. Advantage Sparty, but I fully expect them to squander it.
