Game Thread for Maui and other games tonight and tomorrow

Reminds me of Tshiebwe in a sense. Not the biggest 5 in the world, not athletic enough or intangibles to be a high draft pick, yet for some reason he just owns people in the paint. Scores everything and rebounds everything regardless of who he's against

That's why he came back. He's trying to turn into that stretch 4 that the NBA loves.

His passing, 3 point shooting, technique inside, positioning, and defense is so much better than 2 years ago and thus far improved over last season.

He was told he'd be a 2nd rounder the last 2 seasons.

Again, without ol Daggum, they're just not quite as dislikable to me. They are still T5 in my list though- easily.


Holy crap - Roy Williams is gone at UNC?
Zero sarcasm here - I honestly slept on [laughing]

Going to look that up now - hopefully its not like 3-4 year old news [laughing]

Their getting away with the academic fraud thing "made up classes" and then not having to face accountability -- even self investigating? Oh man -- that elevated UNC to the elite tier of fan hate for me

Oh don't get me wrong. I still hate them. Their Top 3. I just hate KU and Duke waaaaay more.

So Maui comes to a close for the day.

It will be Auburn and Memphis for the title in Maui.

Meanwhile, UConn with a loss to Dayton today the 27th, could finish dead last and have THREE losses already. If they beat Dayton, they will be 7th. What a disastrous trip for them.
 
I'm kind of impressed Memphis beat them and UConn. If Ol Peso wins this whole thing, he might be Penny again.
This is the least talented team izzo has had in a long time. They don’t have anybody on that roster that scares you or you think “ I want him on my team” but those are the types of teams izzo somehow gets to final fours

Nobody watching any games?

Bama currently is a rock fight with Rutgers. Tied at 22 with about 7 to go in the 1st Half.

The Fighting Izzos are up on UNC by 9 at half. 43-34.
 
The Rutgers freshman duo of Harper and Bailey look like the real deal, although their shot selection seems to come and go right now. Also looks like a hangover game for Alabama after their slugfest with Houston last night. They’d probably be comfortably ahead if not for the 11 turnovers, many of which were extremely careless. Tied at halftime as is.
