What's the date today, CN?
Has he seen the pitiful excuse for a "sport" he's been coaching?
What's the date today, CN?
It's not an April Fools' joke. He literally went off on men's college basketball in his press conference today. Does he realize that the worst JV boys' high school team in the country would whoop his team by 80?
Eh, he's probably right. Mens College hoops is pretty sad.. Women at least ...eh i got nothing. Go spurs.
to be fair to this butch loving pervert, he said on SVP that women's ball was even worse.
The Elite 8 games were equal if not better than 2014 a NBA Playoffs
A league with 300 teams will have dry spells
I mean he's right but he's definitely in no position to be talking.
"There’s only like ten teams, you know, out of 25, that actually play the kind of game of basketball that you’d like to watch"
"College men’s basketball is so far behind the times it’s unbelievable. I mean women’s basketball is behind the times. Men’s basketball is even further behind the times."
^ Sounds ignorant and bitter
The beautiful game
How the women college basketball coach have right to critise any other sport ? Women basketball is a parody. In volleyball the net is lowered for women at least.
problem with women's basketball isn't that their game is ty, but that they wear too much tbh. It's not like those tennis girls all look so much better than those playing basketball, but at least they show their legs up to the top of their thighs to compensate your eyes
I cant imagine the storm if anybody dared to call out women`s basketball
That's what he did actually, saying that women's ball was even worse.
He mentioned that women's basketball isn't good either, but everything he said about men's college basketball is correct. Its an atrocious product and much worse than the early 90s NBA.
Its the truth. Its an atrocious product overall. Scoring is so hard for these kids. Ball movement is poor, defenders mug on every possession. Its horrible and everything he said is correct. He even criticized women's basketball.
Men's college basketball is basically over-glorified intramurals basketball. That's why no one watches it till March Madness since the product sucks.
He's right. Watch a game from the late '80s or early '90s involving Billy Tubbs's Oklahoma teams, Nolan Richardson's Arkansas teams, Tark's UNLV teams, etc. and compare those games to those of today. It looks like a completely different sport.
It certainly is ugly. I've only been able to stomach a few games of the tourney this year. It's just not exciting. Defenses have gotten so athletic and they're allowed to play so physically that it's no wonder teams just whittle the 35 down looking for a half-decent shot.
This is the important part. Actually calling the fouls that occur would result in decreased parity, meaning fewer upsets in the tournament. At least, that's the theory. Nevermind that three #1 seeds made the Final Four.
The consistency of foul calls in the NBA is bad, in college it's absolutely terrible. I don't think the sporadic nature of foul calls hurts the big schools at all, in fact probably the opposite is true. The only low seed in the FF is... Michigan State.
Then obviously you also don't appreciate
- Baseball
- Seattle Seahawks
- Barcelona/Real Madrid/English Football
- 4 of the 5 Spurs les
Many of you in this thread don't enjoy the College game because you don't recognize the players, there is less flamboyance and you have an issue with White middle aged coaches being the centerpiece
7 games of the same two teams playing is so exciting. The NCAA Tournament is hard fought and the shortness of the games leaves you wanting more. Who is actually pathetic enough to watch an entire NBA Playoffs series not involving their favorite team?
"He even criticized women's basketball" - He said it's better than Mens Basketball
Calling you out right here. Purists of a sport love 7 game series because they enjoy watching the matchups and coaching decisions that can impact the way each game plays out like it's own unique narrative, that, after 6-7 games can combine into a fantastic piece of entertainment. Adjustments are the lifeblood of strategic sports, watching the mental battle evolve parallel to the physical.
Not to mention the one edge that lower-seeded teams commonly have over higher seeds is their speed and athleticism on the perimeter. A free-flowing game might actually help the lower seeds in a lot of cases.
If you slimmed down from 7 to 5, no one would notice. Those 2 extra games are just money grabbing fillers. Not to mention they've already played 82 regular season games, so faced off 2 to 4 times prior.
In Sports: nothing beats 1 game elimination. It is a big reason why the NFL and Soccer are the two most exciting postseasons.
He is right. College basketball is terrible right now. Nothing that can't be fixed, but there's no doubt it sucks overall.
