[@hudsonstovall8119]

@@de_lontekk8019 I just don’t understand using team achievements to judge a player. He’s averaging more in both the season & the tournament. And obviously that Nova team was FAR better defensively. And Miller only made it to the sweet 16 and is one of the best rookies in the league. Sears is averaging 21 ppg in a season where Alabama has already played Purdue, Creighton, Arizona, Clemson, Oregon, Tennessee x2, Auburn x2, A&M, Florida x3, Kentucky. It’s a brutal schedule and he’s eclipsed both Miller and Sexton’s play. But yet, no recognition. Similar to Brunson in a way as he was a low 2nd round pick.

To be fair they called so much trash on Bama. Go look at the first half of the Charleston game. But as a bama fan you don't wanna play us bc we scare you. We play physical for 40 min. Bama is built for this moment. We'll see you soon. Roll Tide.

[@professorfrink6831]

@@christopherwoodson7162 I dunno if they'll scare anybody but UNC lives or dies by Ryan making his 3's, Ingram making his and 3's and 2's, Davis being able to get off floaters and of course 3's, and then the team not turning the ball over for no reason. When Ryan misses his threes and goes cold, when Ingram misses his 3's and doesn't even attempt to back down and get 2's, when Davis is swarmed and not able to get open shots, and when turnovers occur for no reason, not when they're forced, then Carolina then has trouble. All of this is accompanied by giving the ball to Bacot as much as possible. You also have a pretty good wild card in Withers and the little things he doe. Same for Tremble, especially on defense. I don't wanna talk about what Cadeau brings bc he can't shoot and he's nothing but a driver and a well visioned passer. I wish when he's open for 3 that he'd just dribble the ball for 20 seconds straight but for some reason he chooses to immediately shoot when he knows it's not going in with a 16.7% chance from 3.

I'm okay with playing physical, I'm okay with playing through contact. I played the sport. BUT call it fair. There's no way Bama should be out shot at the FT line by 20. Most of their offense came from the FT line. They're terrible. Had Bama made more shots this game wouldn't have been close AND that's with them having nearly 40 FT attempts. They wanna call ticky tack fouls on Bama but don't wanna call the body to body in mid air against GCU they don't wanna call nothing when Rylan gets landed on for a 3 but they called it on Bama in first half? 🤣🤣🤣 nah bro. Stop making excuses. There was a CLEAR discrepancy in the whistle. The game could have been another 30 point blowout. They just wanted to make GCU look like they belong. THEY DO NOT.
