The Final Four!

Gord Haywood was the 9th pick overall, and he could have stayed at Butler!

Howard will be drafted, but he might be more of a journeyman in the NBA.

He'll certainly be more durable than Greg Oden!

Oden will still have the bigger dong.

Your beloved Kansas Jayhawks 35-3 overall. They played 12 non-conference games against sub-par teams to pad their record. Take 8 of those games and play big conference teams and the 4 and play mid-level strong teams, and see where the team really stands.

Memphis 13
Texas 10 1-1
Mizzou 19
Texas AM 24

Kansas played 1 team in the top 10 during the season. You claim there are the best team over the past two years. Play teams that matter in non-conference games and don't pad the stats.

The best teams win close games!

First off I hate the Kansas Jayhawks, like I hate all the Big 4 college progrmas (Duke, UNC, Kentucky). And yes they only play an average OOC SOS, but that is all considered in power rankings which rank them in the top three in each of the past two years along with Duke. You are clearly double crossing yourself with your argument.

You seem to discredit Kansas conference record of 18-1 in the second best conference last year, and 17-2 in the third best conference this year. So your basically saying that achieving a good record in a top conference means nothing.... but then at the same time you make an argument that they should play play more games against top conference teams. Umm Hello??? See the problem in your argument.

Heck Butler and VCU are playing these sub par teams you talk about for the last 20 games of the season entering the tournament. And is it hurting them? Good teams are good teams, and lucky breaks and getting the right matchup is part of a one and done tourney. The best teams often do not win in such a scenario.

Your argument fails massively.

I was watching ESPN earlier today and some of the Players that would have come out for the NBA draft are considering staying school for another year. Most feel it is because of the liklihood of the NBA not having a season next year or a shortened one at that.

Poor Raptors, get screwed again lol.

That might be injured from flippin' the toilet seat down too fast! LOL.

My view is not skewed the tradional powers and mid-level powers need to stop playing weak sisters for non-conference games. Uconn was 9-9 in conference play and just won their third title in a pretty lame game played by both teams.
It is over now, I figure most of these players will be staying due to NBA strife. Butler just collapsed or ran out of gas.

I tuned in a Final Four Championship game and a high school game broke out. I wasn't pretty and the best team on the day won. It looked like the toilet seat was slammed down on the hoop.

I saw very little of the first half but I did watch the second half. I thought Butler was plain out coached in the second half. UConn defense was outstanding and that was the reason Butler had so much trouble scoring.
