The #1 Rated Mixtape of all Time
Yeah I big bro up for those. But Naismith and Wooden are what casual nikkas embrace unfortunately.

Broome hurt everything in this game but was able to play. CBM been hurt for a minute. Florida also gator fukked us in Auburn too. They’ve been considered better in the general eye for damn near a month

Still crazy we’re here man. Between Okeke snapping his leg in the S16, having to go to OT to beat UK the next round then getting fukked vs UVA in 2019, this really does feel like a potential closing of that chapter.

Still burns we did nothing with that Jabari/Kessler team. The Miami team we lost to ended up going to that F4. No excuse for having not at least made the S16 that year

Honestly wish the matchups were flipped. UF’s height and legion of bigs against Flagg and Maluach. Broome is undersized as a 5, so Houston’s lack of center bodies don’t hold them back defensively.
Still a ton of both narrative juice and on the court intrigue tho

Men's Final Four predictions, previews for Auburn-Florida, Duke-Houston
Here's how each 1-seed reached San Antonio and their key to reaching the final, plus disagreement on one game.

Kelvin sampson gonna have duke in a vice grip
Houston going to have to shoot it extremely well.
I just don't see them beating Duke unless they have some above average shooting night.
I haven't seen Houston's stats but Duke was top 5 in defense (might've been #1) and top 10 in offense at one point
Houston was the top team in the country in 3 point percentage (40%) and top scoring defense
They also have a defensive player of the year candidate in tugler who will be on flagg
croyer already won a title that experience as well

looking out for all them old ass nikkaz who will need to use their degree

I think they'll have to hit above that 40% and/or hit a few more than their average.
Flagg has had difficulties with athletic defenders, so that will be interesting. The unsung hero of duke has been Maluach...he's going to have a big size advantage and all he really needs to do is rebound, block shots, get put backs, set screens and catch lobs. Houston will have to lock down that other cac who feasted against bama, Keonupple (sp?), Houstons length and non-cacness should def help lock him up some.
Bama's defense was terrible and their offense settled for far too many threes, we know houston will be much more structured.
