BU was safe pick, but I expected Houston would remain within striking distance at least into final 10 minutes.

Michigan, Illinois, Ohio State...lol,Iowa. (Snicker)...you would not beat Baylor tonight. Holy ****.

Maybe any night.

What's it mean for a team to have Jims and Joes, and what's the difference between the two?

Sounds familiar but I've forgotten.

Did Barkley refer to the Houston coach as Kevin?

Houston. Exposed.

Hopefully Gonzaga doesn't screw up and we get a Baylor vs. Zags match-up Monday Night.

 

[NENick]

The Baylor vs Gonzaga game on Monday is going to be so much fun. Not often we get the championship game where the two best teams all season make it.

Absolutely the best 2 teams. However, I still think the #1 is significantly better than #2.

Agree, but if Baylor is insane from 3 like they are tonight, it could get interesting.

 

[Cyched]

I don't care for Baylor, but I'm getting some satisfaction from seeing the Big 12 team impose their will like this.

I think Gonzaga hears all of us that keep thinking 'well what happens if they play X team next round' and then they only look better, so there's a good chance that happens Monday too.

Refers to the X’s and O’s vs Jims and Joes saying I think.

Meh. They aren't Gonzaga or Baylor. Those two play on another level. They did all year.
It really didn't matter what other two made the Final Four. This was gonna happen.

Right but Chuck was saying that some teams have the Jims, some have the Joes, but Baylor has both Jims and Joes, but didn't elaborate about what that means.

Like are the Joes just good athletes, and the Jims the smart players too?

It’s Chuck, don’t overthink it.

Yeah it's just clear they don't belong on the same court as Baylor.

Mayer is such a goober-looking dude. I mean, he's really good, but damn...

 

[CycloneErik]

Houston is playing so hard, but it's futile.

 

[CychiatricWard]

The hair certainly isn’t helping. He’s not very good looking anyway but it’s not doing him any favors.

He's Charles Barkley! He can call him Ralph Sampson if he wants to do so. lol. BTW, I saw Chuck play in person for both Auburn (@LSU) and the 76ers (@ Bullets). One of my favorite players AND commentators of all time. I don't always agree with what he says, but I like his sense of humor.
