EC 2-5 and the rest of Michigan 2-20

There's not shooting well and then there's that

That team will go as Yaxel does. Not sure if he's hurt but he was awful
 
I'm sure this will be an unpopular take, but...

I am so thoroughly disgusted with the current game. It's literally a three point shooting contest.

There is almost no work being done down low. NO mid-range game... and I know this change didn't happen over night, and it's not as if I don't appreciate great shooters... but everyone on the court is just trying to get free for a three.

Eh? Maybe I'm just old.
 
Kentucky reminded me of one of those super deep Calipari teams that nobody knew the best players or the roles

Contrast that with Louisville who came out and played exactly how you might expect

Big edge to UNC this year in terms of ACC scheduling getting UL once at home. Duke and Louisville will play 2x

I agree - I miss the days when players who played different positions had different skill sets. Watching a Patrick Ewing or JR Reid or Brad Daugherty or Eric Montross play center or power forward as it was meant to be was something. Now even centers and forwards spend much of their time just jacking up threes. Those days in the late 80s/1990s were special. As you said though, I guess I'm just getting old.
