Through how many more games will it be able to cut? 1? 2? 3 or more?

The last time they went on one of these rolls, it lasted weeks/months.

But, it's hard to imagine a team that relies that heavily on the outside shot being able to sustain it through the entire tournament.

But until the demise comes, I'll be running my hole.

A freshman winning the Conference Tourney Ourtstanding Player was pretty fresh...all 5'6" of him.

Since none of the 5-star underachieving recruits of 2004 are NBA worthy, it means Oregon only loses one player of note -- Aaron Brooks, and his replacement might be a better player. Fear the Quack in 2008.

They do have a potential 2nd-round matchup vs. ND. I don't know what the tournament single-game record for 3-point FG's is, but there's a pretty good chance it could fall in that game, if it comes to be.

You up for a sig bet?

Sig bet? Why would he care to bet against Winthrop?

IIRC, Oregon knocked ND out of the NIT last time they played.

But I ain't crossing that bridge until I come to it...chickens before they hatch and whatnot.

Not saying that the Buckeyes will fold, but (As of the reg season finale) they had taken over 600 treys, while Oden had shot less that 200 times. IMO they need to feed the big fella if they want to cut down the nets.

Tell me about it...
On numerous occasions in the past two months, I found myself hollering at the TV for Conley and Co to pass Oden the GD ball!

They did a much better job of it this past weekend, but more Oden in the offense is still needed.
