This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

The lob works best if the defense is a step or 2 behind by TerryND83
In all their losses, the NDWBB stood around too much, dribbled too much and did not pass the ball around the perimeter enough to make the opponent's defense move. They need to make the defense work not help the defense guard them. When they play teams that can't match their speed or athleticism, they can win but when they play teams like UCONN, North Carolina and Miami that can match their speed and athleticism, they play sloppily and with no emotion other than frustration.
It's a good thing NDWBB won the championship last year. Based on what I have seen this year, NDWBB will be lucky to get to the Elite 8.
