Great day of games so far although I don't know if I'm going to be able to stomach Billy Packer and Jim Nantz slobbering over Tyler Hansbrough in this game against MIGHTY Mount Saint Mary's.
I swear to god the 2 of these love-struck puppy dogs just went nuts because Spaz-brough dribbled between his legs.....
He didn't make a great move or anything......just took one regular dribble standing still and then one dribble from his right hand to his left hand BETWEEN HIS LEGS!!!! Maybe if his NBA career doesn't pan out he can become a Harlem Globetrotter!
How amazing....there are 3rd graders out their who do this in their driveway every day. Do Packer and Nantz wet their pants everytime this happens?
You would have thought by their reaction that they were watching the 2nd coming of Pistol Pete. Give me a break....Hansbrough's got 5 points in 10 minutes against 16th seeded Mount Saint Mary's and these two guys are acting like two teenage girls who just saw their favorite American Idol contestant.
I seriously might puke....Carolina is playing the team that won the play-in game, their the #1 seeded team in the tournament....and Nantz and Packer can't stop gushing about how great the Tar Heels are. Man, I can't wait 'til the Tar Heels face a real team and are exposed.
I'll just hang out and wait until they go on a 20 shot miss streak like they did last year against Georgetown right in the middle of the most important game of the season.
Funny none of these gushing announcers who LOVE Hansbrough never ask where "Psycho T" was during that brutal offensive performance. You would think a STAR and National Player of the Year would be able to at least WILL his team to ONE basket in a Regional Final game, right?
That's Carolina's big problem....when they get in a tight game....WHO do they look to for a big basket? Hansbrough? Wayne Ellington? Danny Green?
Hopefully Indiana will play like the REAL Indiana team and we'll at least get to see how the Tar Heels react to playing a REAL team in Round 2.
Gotta get through a tough Arkansas team first though.....
Honestly....not to sound like a Tar Heel "hater" but this team didn't exactly play a tough schedule this year. 4 ACC teams in the tourney.....and it's not like Duke looked all that impressive in their game against Belmont.
So....the Tar Heels split with the Dukies, beat the Canes once and swept Clemson in 3 very close games against the ACC teams that made the tourney. Virginia Tech took them to the buzzer a week ago....
Out of conference the Heels struggled early in the season against Davidson....okay....solid mid-major team, some credit there. The Heels beat BYU, but it was tight all night. Besides that the only decent teams the Heels played were Ohio State and Kentucky.....and they caught both those teams early in the year when they weren't playing very well.
So....OSU, Kentucky, Davidson, BYU and an ACC schedule in a down year for the ACC.
I know everyone is in LOVE with this UNC team.....and I know they went 32-2 but something still doesn't sit right with me about this team. A second look at their schedule now that most of the season has played out makes me question the Heels a little more.....I'm just saying....
