    Mitch McGary is player of the year. 20 more minutes. GO BLUE

    Glad I've been drinking. Making this second half easier to take

    Full disclosure: I *think* I tie for 6th if LOU wins it all, BUT I always just wanna see a good game...refs had too much influence in the first game. I missed the 1st half of this one, but I hope they let 'em play!

    That was a quick whistle on that last jump ball

    Agreed...but, LOU had been whistled for 10 fouls with 13+ minutes left in the 2nd half. That is absurd.

    It's been fun, despite having a terrible bracket!

    Dont think Louisville prepared for a guy that average 1.8 points a game

    What a first half that one was. Looks like we're going to have a good title game. Trey & Russ return in the 2nd half too.

    I think we tied for 4th, which I'll take. Should be 6 boxes each.

    I'd argue that I was closer on the final points. Which, of course, I'm only arguing for since I now know I was closer on points. :grinning:

    You're right. Based on the rules, we tied. 6 boxes each. No complaints here!

    Well that feels good. Getting my heart ripped out and missing out on some beer. Oh well, whoever gets my box, you'll be happy.

    Awesome game, holy SHIT!!! Best championship game start ---> finish that I've ever watched. Congrats to Pitino & Co.! Plus, I just happened to finish 6th, and I will take it. :grinning:

    Just curious here...how is this a tie? The Yahoo bracket doesn't show any ties, but a straight 1-6 based on (A) points and (B) correct picks. Per the OP:

    The top 6 will be determined by the yahoo point system so the more games you win the better chance you have of being in the top 6.

    Am I missing something? Does that mean "point system" literally, as in only points matter? I interpreted that as Yahoo's scoring system will decide the winners...

    Gotta Love going into to the final having already wrapped up first place. I did need Louisville to win to finish in my money pool and they came through for me. Great game!

    As far as I can tell, it's total points. 4 and 5 (me) both had 113, much like you and someone else had 112. I didn't see a tiebreaker. I'm down for whatever, just seems sketchy to change/add tiebreakers after the fact. If Heatwaves is cool w/ it he can have 7 and I'll take 5 since he predicted a better score (not sure if I'm opening a can of worms or not)...

    The bracket should show ties. I'm tied with 113 total points. However, if I misunderstood and it's suppose to be correct picks, then that would be just fine. I would move up to 3rd. :wink:
