NIL is cause the destruction on march madness
KID FROM ARKANSAS WILL SHOW UP AND CARRY TEAM TO A NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP
Stephen Curry with Davidson, will never happen again
chad and simon, do yall know basketball?? lol
ACC was garbage, many were talking crap about the BE which was clearly better than ACC.
Who tf is shooting 75% from 3 đ€Ł Simon has no clue about basketball lol
Hate to say thisâŠI feel like I am going to be classifying a âCinderella squadâ, by how much money the team cost?! Sounds ridiculous and I hate it. But per Chads view, a team like Iowa may very well be the new Cinderella. Someone spending half or less as the big spenders. BtwâŠI am seeing zero correlation in all those metrics and analytics. Without expanding on an explanationâŠI was heavy on favorites, based on 4 months of âeyesâ analysis. I use analytics to confirm what Iâm âseeingâ!! Will never use stat categories like 3 pt defense for exampleâŠI watched teams shoot poorly, defense had little to do with the make or miss of those shots?! Guys âŠas an old hat, the mid major Cinderella is all but over with, and the good news for CBB is, my kids have no memory of the thrills we used to experienceâŠcanât regret what youâve never experienced??? Love the show!
đźtake off the HAT man
Alot of Blow outs
Thanks Chad and Simon
