2. Phenomenal Basketball Weekend....
...two OT's and one double OT. Super shots, bad decisions, great controversy all rolled into one weekend. Other than the Duke/Kentucky Lattner shot in 1992, this was the best ever.

Pro basketball, and I wouldn't watch a second of it, needs to see why this is so great.

5. unbelievable game
but for a weekend. This was the first time my son sat and watched with me. He couldn't believe the Illinois comeback. I couldn't believe the Illinois comeback. I have seen almost all the games since '65 with Gail Goodrich. great lefty guard

8. why hate on the nba?
Your animosity should be directed at the BCS, because what we saw this weekend is how true champions are determined, not by some computer, and biased polling of coaches and writers.

10. aw... the first thing,
to my knowldege, upon which there is no way we could find agreement, nor compromise... I promise not to rub it in ;-)

Btw, bloomington did pass on to you (or your team) the talents of one of our big bball families - a Duany. They are a really beloved family in the community.

16. Right team - wrong year
Hoosier won in '87 - but weren't undefeated.

Hoosiers that won in 1976 were undefeated (Scott May, Quin Buckner, Kent Benson and others)... infact in two seasons the team, I believe, only lost one game - in the tourney in 1975.

13. Another Final Shot. North Carolina....
...a kid named Jordan. What ever happened to him? I think he went on to play minor league baseball.
