Must not have ever played sports before.

Coming together as a solid unit. Remember this team is loaded is young kids.

Easy on the assumptions - played a ton of sports Sandy ...I dont make assumptions

I liked the cuteness of the word - that's why I emphasized it.

Anyhow yes Kentucky is playing solid right now and tempo is with them...going to be a fun game

Dang rsot you cannot take a joke, but sure like to make your comments.

You need not to be so harsh when someone pokes at you out of fun.

Like I tell my kids, if you cannot handle it, do not dish it out.

This is not a one way street with you making the rules like you love to do.

Calm down and have some fun.

Huge win for the Warriors tonight vs the Mavericks. Since they will get blown out vs the Spurs tomorrow. The 4 team battle for those last 3 playoff spots is going to be interesting. Would hate to be the team that doesn't make it. Considering the complete joke teams in the east that will make the playoffs.

I agree. Lousy teams will take the place of some good teams and lose the first round quickly.

You're Sandy D - that's the problem when I type at work - work tends to get on me a bit so my humour is off

you're right on easing up ...

Anyhow, Toronto looked decent vs the Heat but failure was imminent the other night

Sandy D · #**207** 04-02-2014

Going to come down to who wants it more.

Hard to believe Indiana center Hibert made the comment his team does not deserve the no. 1 seed.

Unless it is to spark them what a comment to make.

vogeltron · #**208** 04-03-2014

Spurs just keep winning. It is absolutely amazing the consistency this team has had for the past 15 years. I also have to give Marco Belinelli much credit. He has turned himself into a nice NBA player. Another former Warrior Draft pick on other teams in the NBA. LOL, I guess that is what happens when you get top 10 picks for like 12 years and you only top 3 pick you was on Mike Dunleavy. Granted it was a crummy draft year.

rsot · #**209** 04-03-2014

The Warriors do have some nice picks that have moved on

Sandy D · #**210** 04-03-2014

They play consistent and sound. If you dont fit in you are gone quickly.
Might be Duncans last year.

If they win the Championship I could see him walking away like David Robinson did when Duncan was early in his career. But then again. When you are cashing a $10+ million pay check and will be for sure retired by no later than 42-43. Hard to pass up the money. Especially in a city that loves him.

Duncan can't play the minutes he use to. But big men are so hard to find in today's NBA. It is more Ginobili whose skills have deteriorated significantly, as great as he has been I would ponder his future.

rsot · #**212** 04-04-2014

Duncan was always fun to watch

Sandy D · #**213** 04-05-2014

Kentucky and UConn

Who you got?

Posted in the chat. Just think if Kentucky still had those 4 players who went to the NBA how awesome they would be.

Kudos to Wisconsin, they really played every game hard and did well.

bjammin · #**214** 04-05-2014

I gotta go with KY. I really wanted Louisville to beat them in the sweet 16 because I did not think KY would go all the way. I was wrong. They are not all the way yet, but they def deserve to play in the championship game.

Go KENTUCKY!!!

vogeltron · #**215** 04-06-2014

Kentucky probably has more talent. I am going with UCONN in the upset.

I expect the UCONN sweep for both the Men's and Women's tourney.

Quite the end game of Kentucky vs Wisconsin.

UConn blew out Florida - surprising.

Who had UConn vs Kentucky for final matchup? Hah I didnt.

I am in ESPN and Yahoo polls and I will take a look.

I know several had Kentucky winning it on the ESPN polls.

rsot · #**218** 04-07-2014

About 1.5k brackets had these 2 in the finals out of 1 million as per Yahoo (or some close source).

Going to be a good game tonight!

Sandy D · #**219** 04-07-2014

4 people picked these two in the 100k challenge brackets for Quicken loans.

One member who had the most points at the time forgot to fill in his winner of tonights game.

The others picked Uconn, if he had picked Ky and

and Ky wins he just tossed 100k into the trash can.

Sandy D · #**220** 04-07-2014

I said Napier was the best player in the tourney and he took over this game when they needed it.

Ky just too young and cannot shot free throws.

Mistakes killed Kentucky.

Congrats to UConn.

I do not think they were overall more talented then many teams but they constantly played hard and Napier is going to be a good point guard in the NBA.
