Quote :

"The set was used by Kansas University against the dynamic backcourt of Stillman White and Harrison Barnes of the #1 seeded University of North Carolina in the 2012 NCAA tournament Elite 8 round. Mass confusion and panic ensued, which resulted in the North Carolina Tarheels failing to score in the final 4 minutes of the game. There was no more panic on the court than on the bench, where a full staff of guys in suits apparently couldn’t identify the defense Kansas was playing. Or adjust to it. University of North Carolina coach Roy Williams(who gets paid millions to coach basketball) later admitted after the game that he had no idea a triangle and two was being utilized against his team for most of the second half, leading many to question his ability to teach his team the most fundamental aspects of the game. "

aahahahahahahahahahaha excellent wiki edit

"Forde isn't wrong in his assertion. Self was savvy enough to recognize the Tar Heels were limited without Kendall Marshall on the court and he threw a junk defense at North Carolina to exploit it. But Forde took it a step further based on an answer by Williams about the triangle-and-two defense, which he takes at face value. “I know they did for one possession, and they may have for another possession,” Williams said. “I’m not sure about that.” Everybody will be quick to point out Kansas actually ran a triangle-and-two for more than just a handful of possessions, which makes Williams' answer somewhat confusing...."

damn they've already caught the edit for the wiki entry, fortunately there's still a small jab in it

Its always tough to tell the difference between a sagging man and a triangle and two zone. When the offense shoots early before everyone cuts through you can never really tell if its a man to man daring three people to shoot or a triangle and two.

Kate Upton spotting at the Magic@Knicks game, she'll be into us again next season when we win more

3/28/2012 8:53:23 PM

why isn't wood in the 3-pt competition?

3/29/2012 9:25:42 PM

if you're talking about the college three point/slam dunk competition that is always played in the same city as the final four, I'm pretty positive that it's for seniors only

and what an ugly basketball court, diarrhea green...

I always wondered how they convince players from California to go play at Kansas.

3/31/2012 10:58:57 PM

good damn game. travel? wtf

3/31/2012 11:14:42 PM

lol. when is the last time they have made a false traveling call?

3/31/2012 11:15:06 PM

Wow if that call costs them the game that guy should fear for his life

3/31/2012 11:16:15 PM

one of these shit teams kansas gonna lose to kentucky...

kansas just absolutely stole that game. wow.

and now kansas is going to get rolled by kentucky and simonn is gonna win $208 in his office pool. fuck yeah.

3/31/2012 11:20:51 PM

God we could have had a walk to the championship

3/31/2012 11:21:50 PM

Not convinced that was the correct call on the lane violation. Crafts foot looked like it didn't touch down until after the ball had touched the rim.

3/31/2012 11:22:14 PM

^Consider it the make-up for that "travel" that prevented Kansas from going up 5.

3/31/2012 11:24:11 PM

does it really matter? Craft blew the layup. I suppose Ohio State could have grabbed the board, but I doubt it with Whitey and Robinson in there

3/31/2012 11:29:38 PM

that was the strangest end to a game I've ever seen

3/31/2012 11:37:26 PM

This National Championship has all the makings of a 30+ point game that might only be a 15 point spread.

3/31/2012 11:39:51 PM

but where will the defense come from?

it was definitely the correct call. the shooter isn't allowed to move toward the basket until the ball hits the rim. his foot not touching the ground makes no difference.

3/31/2012 11:58:52 PM

Good point. I looked it up and am definitely wrong.

4/1/2012 1:19:17 PM

craft should have done old skool throw it off the rim as hard as he can (like in 21) and pray it caroms to him or a teammate.

4/1/2012 3:04:31 PM

^??? uhhh he did... did you watch? it was just a lane violation

4/1/2012 7:16:30 PM

If Kansas wins, my wife wins an ipod. If Kentucky wins, $50 to Outback.
