@ryanhammer09 @HardwooodEmpire @2K If anything it should show @EASPORTS that even if they don’t have as good of on court gameplay, if the depth is there they can compete

Hardwood Empire is undoubtedly amazing.
What it makes me think about is... is how important it is for any CBB video game to come in the future NEEDING to have 365 D1 teams. Dynasty rebuilds are what make games like this amazing.
Shoutout to @HardwooodEmpire
Your move @2K

What a shot by the freshman! Now just have to decide if it’s time to take a P4 job @HardwooodEmpire

I don’t understand this argument at all. What’s wrong with any part of the ball touching being a strike? If it was 50/50 and a ball was 49.999 percent in the zone wouldn’t that just be the same argument with a smaller strike zone?
Ryan M. Spaeder@theaceofspaeder
Okay, can we do 50/50 at least? If more than half the ball is in the zone, it is a strike, if not, it is a ball. Because this is dumb. Sorry if that hurts you.

@WannaMeetCartii @thesportsenjoy1 Between entering the portal or not the same as literally every other player that hasn’t already made that decision
English
@thesportsenjoy1 I’m overreacting probably but Trilly said Jake Davis should “have a decision soon” which just gives me an awful feeling bc what is he deciding between
English
******** poaching Lopati
Duke bag dropping for Blackwell
Misko pulling out of the program
Who has it worse than Illini fans?

We felt the magic this season, and we will feel its impact for generations.

@NukeAltmeyeIL Keep Vaaks far away from the team and get Dre back in the lineup
English
My 2 cents on dream Illini roster
G - John Blackwell (Wisky)
G - Quentin Coleman
F - Stefan Vaaks (Providence)
F - David Mirkovic
C - Tomislav Ivisic
6th man: Andrej Stojakovic
Rotational:
Z
Ty
Davis
Cox (Colgate)
Lee

@Coach__Strick I’m also not in favor of expanding the tournament but at least (for now) they are only adding play in games
English
@loganrwade Actually 16 seconds in they do show it🤷🏼♂️ I was blinded by it because of my hatred for the NCAA and their dumb/greedy decision to expand to tournament😂
English
Know why the funniest part of tourney…Miami’s swim team in speedos…wasn’t shown?
Because it’s the first four and not part of the actual “the ball is tipped” tournament🤷🏼♂️
But now we’re gonna add even more games that aren’t the actual tournament🤦🏼♂️

@ryanhammer09 Thought Brad coached a great game beginning to end as did Hurley. Neither was perfect but there was no glaring advantage either way
English
Underwood did get out coached last night.
Illinois also was insanely unlucky & could not buy a bucket.
Both can be true
𝕮𝖔𝖓𝖓𝖔𝖗 𝕻𝖎𝖑𝖘@TheConnorPils
“Underwood just got out-coached tonight” Have you considered Illinois just…missed shots they normally make? Hurley is a great coach but let’s not act like if even half of these go down UConn doesn’t go home. Sometimes the shots just don’t fall.
English
@rforan23 He’s as wrong as he could possibly be. Well coached game on both ends. One team made shots, the other didn’t
English
@CollegeHoopsTIk Bad bounces and missing open shots. Brad coached his ass off and had great adjustments on both ends. This is either a lazy take, trying to push a narrative that isn’t there or trying to sound smart for the internet. Some times basketball just comes down to make or miss
English
DOWN GOES ILLINOIS
Shoddy refereeing and a TERRIBLE game plan from the coaching staff sees the Fighting Illini out of the tournament.
Cam Crocker deserves a ton of credit for his defensive plan this year. And UI fan should be super proud of their team, but this one must hurt.

UConn hitting shots.
Illinois missing shots.
Sometimes basketball can be a simple sport.
English
Unfortunately it’s mostly just some unlucky bounces on shots. There have been plenty of adjustments on both ends
English
@gwizzy12 Missing 5 wide open catch and shoot 3s will do that
English
Hurley Hurleying
Illinois has zero assists at the U12. Never seen that.
English
@thelastofblond As a Jon fan I was watching on mute and felt pretty comfortable that he had won, never gone back to try to score it. The Santos fight was the one I thought he might have lost
English
Re-watched Jon Jones vs Dominick Reyes and I scored the fight 4-1 in favor of Jon Jones.
I genuinely don’t know how people thought it was close unless you are scoring pure volume and completely ignoring damage + effectiveness.
I think people are used to see Jon Jones completely dominate a fight, so when it was slightly competitive people thought it was close.
English
@notgaetti I’m a Bauer fan and do feel bad for his situation but based on how he’s performed outside of MLB I’d say his ship has sailed
English
He threw 73.0 really good spider-tack-fueled innings seven years ago and you haven’t gotten up off your knees ever since? I honestly do not understand people like you.
McKewty@McKewtyPosts
@notgaetti “Cy Young season” is all you need to mention when you say he deserved another shot
English
@BobZuppke How is common sense and the expected outcome naive?
English
I might be naive, but I get the sense David Mirkovic loves it here and *wants* to be back next year
English
@Coach__Strick Thank you!
Unfortunately it’s a mix of teams just trying to abuse the lack of outside shooting and passing abilities at this age and also a lack of numbers.
I assist our HS team as well and we are almost strictly man so I try to mirror a lot of what it will he at that level
English
@loganrwade Appreciate you sharing, and it’s great to hear your girls are getting quality coaching!
I’m anti-zone for youth basketball, and preferably anything before HS, so excuse me for puking in my mouth at the 90% comment🤢😂
English
Taped practice last night and mic’d myself up. Probably will share more as we go.
But this shocked me. Not 1 player raised their hand when I asked if their coach teaches 1st/2nd/3rd side.
Do any of you still teach stuff like that or am I too old school with this?
