    Was awful the ul player never had his hands on the ball. The refs went from calling it very close to swallowing the whistle, all I ever ask out of a ref is consistency call it the same way both ways all game...

    Read the same, but he could always reconsider. Especially if UM wins the NC and McGary is named MVP.

    Burke

    Burke is playing a great game tonight.

    Yeah if that happened then he said he was coming back I'd be skeptical, but to announce it so early it's hard not to take his word for it.

    Except he's doing terrible? Taking bad shots and poor decision making on when to pass or shoot.

    MCW just got Burked.

    Yet another prospect that crapped the bed.
    If you Jimmer it, they will come.

    McGary has nothing to gain by leaving early.

    1. He is at Michigan not some crap school, so he has that going for him.
    2. Next year he will improve his draft stock and be what Zeller wasn't this year.

    You find out more about a player when they struggling with their shot. He did a great job of feeding his big man, defending, and hustling. You're way to focused on his shot.

    Except he was making dumb passes. And not attacking when he should. And attacking when he shouldn't. Shooting when he should pass. Passing when he should shoot. He is not playing well on offense with the exception of excellent protection of his dribble.

    Not an impressive game from Burke but Syracuse is a tough defensive team that really pressures the ball. Still has one more game to go against Siva and Russ Smith. If Burke thought MCW and Triche were tough, he's in for a hell of a ride against UL.

    No problem skipper.

    Here's a dime. So when you get down to the shake shop you can have George put extra cream on your eggcream.

    Go Blue!

    Imagine how Siva and Smith feel knowing they are going against the best backcourt in college Monday.

    Burke

    This kinda game is why I don't think Burke can hang in nba at top level.

    I feel that way about every prospect in this draft.

    There's a reason why Syracuse is only allowing 27% shooting in the tournament. Their defense is no joke. People can nitpick Burke offensively all they want tonight but what I saw from him answered all the critics tonight. He can defend at the NBA level and make an impact even if he's struggling from the field.

    What I loved about him is that he doesn't get phased and consistently gets the ball to his big man.

    McGary is playing like a lotto pick and will be 21, but I can see him staying another year in Ann Arbor. Kid is humble, but has a solid head on his shoulders.

    Yeah because so many pro teams run a 2-3 zone.

    The spacing in the NBA is so much better.

    This is just laughable...

    Spacing in the NBA is ten times better, and how many pro teams rely on 2-3 zones?

    Let the doubters doubt. They shall be converted. He's another Lillard, he just isn't as athletic or big and a better passer.

    Edit: The floor spacing point can't be stressed. The bigger 3pt line gives a guy like Burke a LOT more room to operate and makes a 2-3 zone untenable in the NBA. Don't let the fears of his weaknesses scare you away.
