2022-23 NCAA Men's Basketball Thread

Not bad.   Unintended comedic irony.  A self own is always fun.

[JWags85]

Dickinson repeatedly gets the ball slapped away on entry passes...so Howard keeps trying to feed him.  Smart coaching man

[mugrad_89]

The Big 10 is so mediocre - it wouldn't shock me if none of their teams made it out of the first weekend.

[MU82]

Goldy up by 7 at the half.

[pbiflyer]

That is some awful basketball and Garcia is not a very good team  player.

[Fred Garvin]

Two bad teams!!

I'd be selfish too playing with those bums

[pbiflyer]

Wisconsin doing what they do best,  flopping and whining.

[MUfan12]

I can't believe that team is gonna make the tournament. They're terrible.

[cheebs09]

I can't believe that team is gonna make the tournament. They're terrible.

This is awful basketball.

[GoldenEagles03]

I can't believe that team is gonna make the tournament. They're terrible.

They're not.

[BM1090]

They're not.

They are unless they lose tonight or there are some bid thieves. They kept losing but nobody around the bubble took it from them.

[CountryRoads]

They're not.

They're further away than people think. Need 3 wins in conference tournament.

[GoldenEagles03]

They are unless they lose tonight or there are some bid thieves. They kept losing but nobody around the bubble took it from them.

This win does nothing for them aside from avoiding a loss.

They'll have to win at least 2 games in the BIG Ten Tournament and that won't happen.

[WarriorDoc]

Is NoLongerWarriors gonna take a victory lap if the Badgers win tonight?

Hey, there are no easy nites on the road in the Big 10, even if the other team is 8-20.  🙄

[cheebs09]

Why did Minnesota miss that on purpose? Still enough time to foul and get a good look.

[BM1090]

Why? Who is going to make it over them?

If there is a bid stealer or two, which is likely, they'll miss. If there's not? Nobody has passed them.

[GoldenEagles03]

Why did Minnesota miss that on purpose? Still enough time to foul and get a good look.

Because they are 8-21

[mugrad_89]

Congrats to Bucky for finishing 12th in a mediocre Big 10 - NLW should be proud of their season.

[MU82]

Dumbass Klesmit fouls with Madison up 2, thinking they were up 3. But Battle, an 85% FT shooter for Minnesota, of course bricked the first.

Two horrible teams going nowhere.

[Lennys Tap]

Garcia's just as big a bum as the rest of them.

[Juan Anderson's Mixtape]

Garcia's just as big a bum as the rest of them.

True.  Dawson provides zero interior defense.

Lewis and Oso both ended up being much better players than Garcia.

[94Warrior]

None of the Bracket Projections account for bid stealers.  There are always bid stealers.  If you are last 2 or 3 in right now, get ready for disappointment.

[MuggsyB]

True.  Dawson provides zero interior defense.

Lewis and Oso both ended up being much better players than Garcia.

No argument here
