Is anybody watching this game? Right now, it's 102-102 with 0:10 left in the third overtime. I can't think of a regular season college basketball game that's been this good in a long, long time. Big dunks, clutch shots and a whole lot of JamesOn Curry.

That's all. Speak up if you bet the under and have been crushed by all the overtimes.
Or if you are a random tennis fan who is geared up for Andre Agassi's in-studio interview.  8)
 
Great game. Pokes looked a ton better than when they played the Jayhawks last week, for sure. And Durant looked every bit as good as I had heard -- never saw him play until tonight.
 
****ing Abrams. Nice shot, buddy. Didn't he have the god-awful runner on the previous possession that Durant saved?
 
Wow. Even better -- like, way better -- than the Mizzou-Kansas game last night. Durant is scary good.
 
Durant is definitely not a consolation prize for anyone in the NBA. Guy is incredible. He's like 6-9 and can do just about everything.

Got to figure he's a 3 in the league, right?

I love Brandan Wright, Noah is nice, Horford too ... but Durant is absolutely a lock to be the 2nd pick. And while Oden is a nice franchise player ... I can see Durant being every bit as good a player.

Memphis with Gasol and Oden would be nice ...
Philly would a 2-some of Iggy at 2/3 and Durant at 2/3 would also work ...

If the Celtics can keep Pierce out a lot longer, they may have a shot at 3 or better ... and they'd get 'stuck' with Wright or Noah.

That game was incredible. Durant is amazing, but Curry and James and Abrams and Augustine and Boggan are all studs.

It might have been one of the best Big 12 games so far this season, if not the best.
 
I was going to say A-F bet the under and crapped his pants, but that joke seems to have been used already.

Wright has vanished at times this season, so I hope he sticks around for another season. Besides, I would rather him play at Allen Fieldhouse again for obvious reasons.
 
Your clubhouse leader for college hoop Game of the Year.
Maybe they'll give ESPN a base camera angle allow them to see who's shooting from the near corners the next time they visit Stillwater. Thank God for the corner camera.

Maybe ESPN just shouldn't cover anything in Stillwater until they build a new arena, or at least a perch for the cameraman. That was bush-league.

They just remodeled the place a few years ago. With all of Boone Pickens' money you think they'd be able to afford a camera stand that isn't blocked by fans.

Exactly what I was thinking.
 
man, it must have been a great game if no one mentioned boggan and his 37 and 20. smokes!
 
that was an all-timer. and no Vitale, so i could actually have the sound up
 
I'll 20th the sentiment. Fantastic game. Neither team deserved to lose, and the Boggan vs. Durant sideshow was phenomenal.

Actually meant Brandan Wright of UNC ... but Julian is probably a lottery pick, too.

Betting on this one? Nope. Line was too close, and rarely mess with over/under.
 
Great game, with a funny sideline: ESPN2 couldn't stop promoting its live interview with Andre Agassi coming up as part of Aussie Open coverage. The look on Agassi's face was priceless: "When is this thing going to end so I can go home?"

I don't follow college hoops as much as I used to, but did someone say that Boggan was a Florida transfer?
