Missing these FTs could kill Michigan.

Michigan needs to start getting some stops or this one is over
That was funny. Wet spot on the floor makes guy coming to clean it trip.
And it nearly hurt Burke! Ya jerk!
No!!!! Not Burke! Don't let it be a bum wheel now!
I hope Webber sticks to his reputation and does something illegal to a ref after this game.
Burke has certainly been impressive. Louisville looking like they got this though.
That or come to New Orleans and calls a timeout he doesn't have.
Game over... Michigan can't rebound.
And UL turns it over as I type it... yikes. Nail biter.
Is someone gonna foul?!? Jesus.
UNO just crying because UL dominated this second half.
More than expected that 3 to go down.
Michigan fought the good fight. Welcome to the NBA, Burke.
Game over. Out coached badly.
Despite the poor refereeing this game was really entertaining. Heck of a way for Rick Pitino to go into the hall of fame right after a championship
HAHAHAHAHAH
Pretty sure pitino just **** his pants.
Good game Louisville.
Well I hope this shut up the Burke detractors. Dude is realer than real. There isn't a guy on our team I would trust with the ball more than Burke.
He thought Kane was about come out on the court LOL

I thought they were gun shots. Then I thought, wait this is Atlanta, so they just might be.
Great game, like both colleges but as a Burke and Robinson fan a bit upset. Stoked for Kevin Ware. Poor coaching I thought by Michigan late. Pity about the officiating too, the 2 missed goaltends, the Burke block, the missed Diang travel etc etc. Not saying I think Michigan would have won, just would like to have seen the game as a tied/ closer ball game late with the possibility of overtime or a big play. Anyhow one of the best national championship games in several years.
The game would have been different had we not sat Burke 12 min, but great game by Louisville. We got out coached, but that's ok, John will learn and get better.
Its Time for ONE SHINNING MOMENT !!!!!!!!! LOL
Do y'all think Gorgui Dieng will enter the draft, he was impressive tonight.
So, could Siva make it in the NBA? The speed is incredible, and I didn't know he had hops like that. Maybe prisoner of the moment, but I came away impressed as hell with him each time I've watched Louisville this year.
Now my brother is telling me Siva is going as a lottery pick.
I think he will. That Louisville team has a lot of NBA talent on it. Dienge would have been a top 15 pick last year. Tonight Siga, Dienge, and Smith really helped their stock.
OMG I don't why but I was dying laughing at that wheat thins commercial lmao never seen it before
Top 5? No. Late lotto pick? Sure.
There are many more prospects with more upside than Peyton Siva. He wont be a lottery pick.
I think of Tony Delk when I think Payton Siva going in the lotto. He will go in the 1st, just not sure that high.
I don't see any 22 year old averaging a steady 10 and 5 the last 3 years going into the lottery.
MJ broke Kwame.
Ok just to clear this up:
I've been trolling McNamara with this lately on twitter and such, and it was me who's been pushing his "take" on Burke but to be fair he actually likes Burke a lot, just doesn't see the fit on the Pelicans.
Why? Mainly because he doesn't think that Burke can create the on the ball pressure that Monty wants. I think that's asinine and Burke will be a VERY pesky defender in the NBA.
And ANYONE who saw that block last night (which was NOT a foul) would be totally crazy to not realize that Burke is very athletic. Only a handful of PGs in the NBA have elite speed, you don't have to be a roadrunner to be a great PG.
You don't need it to be the best PG. Paul was never on a Wall/Westbrook/Rose type level physically. Now after the injuries he's not even close. There's something to be said about pacing, changing gears, great vision, good shooting, craftiness, and high IQ on offense.
Defense more than anything is about effort. Trey has the length, lateral quickness and foot speed to be just as pesky on ball as Paul if not more so with his 2-3 inch length difference over Paul. Not sure he has Chris' instinct for playing the passing lanes and when to gamble for steals.
If we are waiting for an elite athlete of a PG, we may be waiting for 3-5 years. They are not "easy" to get. Trey Burke is the best option in this draft, and we won't be tied to waiting on Rivers to decide what he going to be in this league.
Very well said, Throne.
Webber, never apologize.
Burke, have a lazy summer and welcome to NOLA
Dell, find us a SF
