southsider2k5 Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Gotta get an open look. Spread the floor and let them go to the rim. Don't expect the foul in the last couple of seconds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 That's why Butler needed to attack Zoubek after his forth foul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliamTell Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 might've been the right time after the foul, but I wish they would've at least looked at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe on the offensive end... the execution on the defensive end was great by both teams. it was nice to see a title game played this hard on both ends of the floor.

When is a title game ever not played that hard on both ends of the court? Because I guarantee it wouldn't have looked like Butler was playing that hard if they were facing UNC from last year and getting run off the floor.

Couldn't agree more...Butler's offense in the 2nd half was pathetic. Not exactly exciting seeing a team score half their points in a half from the FT line.

I'm completely with you on this one. The defense and physicality was fantastic in this game and quite enjoyable to watch. Don't really care that there weren't a lot of points scored because there really weren't many good shots to be had, I personally thought that was one hell of a game.

3E8 Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 No one for Butler stepped up enough offensively. Take out Avery Jukes and Butler shot 30%. Veasley missed all 5 of his 3-pointers which if I recall weren't that closely contested Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Butler's defense was sensational as always, but their offense the last 2 games was HORRIBLE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan99 Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Also, did Zoubek miss that last FT on purpose because if so that is unbelievably stupid strategy on the part of Coach K. You never bring a potential loss into the equation in regulation. Make the FT and if they make a prayer to send it in to OT fine, but to give them a chance to win it in regulation is just dumb.
