Congrats to Kansas, But Memphis Should Have Won!! Best NCAA Title Game Yet!?

| 34 Comments

AYOOO! What a finish to the Tournament!


Congrats to Kansas, but Memphis shouldn't have lost that game (and championship) last night! I don't care what anybody says! The Tigers couldn't buy a free throw down the stretch and it cost them a national title. SMH.


The ending was unreal. I still can't believe Kansas won!


I mean, the Jayhawks were down nine with 2:12 left, but Memphis didn't close the show, mostly because of missed free throws. Your boy Derrick Rose and Chris Douglas-Roberts (CDR) combined to make only one of five foul shots with just over a minute left in the game.


That left the door open for the Jayhawks, who took advantage, when Mario Chalmers hit a clutch-ass MONEY IN THE BANK three with 2.1 left in regulation to force overtime.


Watch the boy Super Mario go to work here.


"I had a good look at it," Chalmers later told the AP. "When it left my hands it felt like it was good, and it just went in."


The Jayhawks then outscored the Tigers, 12-5 in OT, to clinch the title. Man oh man! Can't believe the way it went down. Be clear that Joey Dorsey scoring a measley six points had a lot to do with Memphis losing too. I could drop six points, homes! On three J's in your mouth like dental cream, two treys or getting to the charity stripe. How you want it!?


I will say, though, not to take anything away from Chalmers, who scored 18 points to win the Most Outstanding Player (Word to M.O.P. - ANTE UP), his teammate Darrell Arthur (20 points, 10 boards) or even Memphis' CDR (game-high 22 points), but none of those cats were the best player on the court last night. That was D. Rose!


Watching the game, it's as clear as the fact that G-Unit's done that D. Rose is ready for the L. Nah, scratch that ... he's built for the L. I think the Kansas kid Sherron Collins did a good job D'ing up Rose in the first half, but nobody could stop dude in the second. I mean, my man scored 14 of his entire squad's 16 points late to put Memphis up by nine.


That's how you put a team on your back, pimpin. Dude's going to have a great career (hopefully as a New York Knick; Me and my wishful thinking).


But was this the best NCAA Final yet!? Let me know your opinions on the game!

Best game I have seen in a while since most title games aren't this close. Possibly best ever. Memphis and their Shaq like free throws came back to haunt them.

As much as the Knicks need Rose, could you see DWade and Rose together? Oh yeah!

Memp Imma need dat dough I lost cuz yall let that 1 slip...Good game none the less.

CALIPARI IS A CAR SALESMAN. . .he doesn't deserve a title.

And I speak for the entire city of Louisville when I say WE'RE GLAD KANSAS WON!
you hear that?? WE'RE-GLAD-KANSAS-WON! Memphis has been jealous of Louisville in whatever we do, and that Kia car-salesman of a coach Calipari doesn't deserve a title.

**GO CARDS!**

KU DID deserve to win. Even when it looked impossible, they never gave up.
ROCK CHALK JAYHAWK!!

I'm a Kansas Alum and the best team won. No one can say shit. Memphis choked on a dick. Mario Chalmers is officially a god/legend in Lawrence, Kansas. Memphis had the game won, it is just the year for the boys from Kansas. I cry tears of joy!!!!!

Shout out to Kansas Girl whoever you are. I love you!!!

I gotta disagree and say that Chris Douglas-Roberts was the best player on the court last night. His 13 in the first half was the ONLY thing that kept the game close with Derrick Rose in clamps. Along with the fact that D.Rose only had 1 point in the last 9 minutes of the game including overtime, CDR kept Memphis from gettin killed. Now dont me wrong Rose is my nigga, but Chris scored all of Memphis' overtime points, you ask me both them niggas is top 10 draft picks

styling on all u HATER BABIES!!!!

KANSAS JAYHAWKS won the championship because your boys CHOKED...bottom line...hit your free throws & u could've won the game...the DREAM team...shouldn't have been dreaming in the final 2 minutes of regualtion...oh well

DORSEY IS THEY DOWN FALL DUDE STARTIN HE NEED MORE THAN 6 PTS BUT I KNEW THE FREE THROWS WOULD BE KEY D.ROSE ISA BALLER BUT I THINK CDR IS MORE READY FOR THE LEAGUE
GLAD RUSH FINNALY GOT THAT

WWW.MYSPACE.COM/THAGRINDAHOLIC
NUTHIN BUT THAT TRUNK KNOCK

**GOOGLE DARIUS WASHINGTON C-USA TITLE GAME**

Memphis-STATE still ain't ready. . .yeah, Memphis-STATE. They changed their name in '90 to sound more like a real school. They don't have tradition in ANY sport, then they hire that Kia-carsalesman Calipari who was fired for cheating at Umass. but they're Memphis-STATE, they have nothing to lose but a rib dinner.

The-VILLE ALL DAY! **GO CARDS!**

CD-R is backup for the league at 2, Kobe, Wade, Ellis will kill him. Rose will play NBA he's a big one and as the upsie for it. CD-R is broke Shawn Marion.

DID ANYONE SEE YO GOTTI WITH PENNY LAST NIGHT?
GOTTI HAD ON SOME ISSH LAST NIGHT. THOUGHT IT WAS GOIG TO BE POPPIN FOR MEMPHIS IN MAY BUT I GUESS NOT.

@ MEMPHIS OWN.

I DID NOT READ YA COMMENT BUT YALL KNOW THAT MEMPHIS ALWAYS GOT HANDED A "L" ALL THE TIME AGAINST THE CARDS HOMEY!! THE ONLY TIME MEMPHIS USE TO GET WITH U OF L WAS BACK IN THE ELLIOT PERRY DAYS AND KEITH LEE DAYS. WHY IS MEMPHIS SCARED TO SCHEDULE U OF L? ON TOP OF THAT WHY DIDN'T MEMPHIS JOIN THE BIG EAST. THEY KNEW MEMPHIS WOULD GET THAT A@@ HANDLE TO THEM. I WISH THEY WOULD PLAY EACH OTHER. I LOVE THAT RIVAL MORE THAN UK VS. UL

AND YES ..HE (THE TRUTH) WOULD HAD BEEN SHOT FOR THAT COMMENT LAST NIGHT. LOL

The Big-East doesn't need Memphis-STATE, they refused them in 2003 because they bring nothing to the table. Louisville has a '07 BCS Orange bowl, '05 Final Four and '08 Elite Eight, a '08 womens Sweet Sixteen and a '07 College baseball world series appearance. . .Now, what can Memphis-STATE add except a box of rib-tips and a BB-King album??

That was a monumental choke job for the ages. I can't help but remember a few weeks ago when Calapari was getting upset with the media, talkin about he wasn't concerned about his team's free throw shooting. Wonder how concerned he is today. He should have called a timeout after Rose's last made free throw and he should have fouled before Chalmers got that 3 up. Memphis lost on bad coaching and bad freethrow shooting (which is a result of coaching). Straight choke job, congrats to Kansas- they deserved it. The culture of Memphis basketball is that they collect great atheletes and play run and gun, but theres no poise, composure or fundamentals. They will not win a championship.

@ THE TRUTH

WHO WOULD YOU PREFER THE CARDS TO PLAY...MEMPHIS OR UK

GIVE ME MEMPHIS EVERY YEAR.

WAY TO RUN DOWN THE UOFL'S BIG EAST HISTORY. ALOT POPPING RIGHT THERE IN A SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME.

I'd like to play those Memphis-STATE kittens, just to remind them how far they still have to go. . . Oh, did I mention Hall of fame coaches?? Nah, I won't go there.

Man u catz iz hilarious. Shut Mempiss State down Truth shut em down...yeah i said MemPISS State!! I'm gald them and the door to door vacuum cleaner salesman lost!!

YEAH WE ALL KNOW THAT MEMPHIS WOULD HAD GOT THAT TAIL BEAT JUST LIKE UT VOLS GOT THAT A@@ HANDED IN THE TOURNEY.

BEST NCAA GAME EVER, BY FAR ALMOST... I STILL AM IN DISBELIEF AT WHAT I WITNESSED... A STUNNING BASKETBALL GAME... NOT JUST THE ACTUAL GAME ITSELF... I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD EVER SAY THIS BUT THE OFFICIATING WAS OUTSTANDING FOR THIS CHAMPIONSHIP GAME... AND BILLY PACKER WAS AT HIS FINEST... DAMN WHAT A GAME

BEST PLAYA ON THE COURT THAT NOBODY IS TALKIN ABOUT: "SLIM SHADY"... DARELL ARTHUR... GAME-HIGH 20 POINTS AND 10 REBOUNDS, HE WAS PRETTY MUCH UNSTOPPABLE, GETTIN DORSEY TAGGERT AND DOZIER IN FOUL TROUBLE EARLY... TOP 10 PICK

Yo FINALLY Kansas gets some good publicity.. other than the woman being stuck in a bathroom for 2 years!!! Kansas deserves it no matter what anybody says, the best team won..NO EXCUSES. Memphis....Work on them free throws :)

We partying all week so everybody make your way to the middle of the map!!! KANSAS BABY....MORE THAN WHEAT AND CORN FIELDS!!!

I wanted Memphis to win....gotta give it to Kansas they hung tough when falling behind...and gotta give it to Bill Self...VERY smart to start fouling at 2 minutes and take advantage of Memphis' achilles heel!!!! I think if Dorsey didn't foul out, Memphis would've still had a chance but they were nothing w/o him. Definitely one of the top 5 championship games.

ima say this.. all people CDR DOUGLASS ROBERTS BLEW THAT GAME.. not by his free throws but by not holding the ball and killing the clock. HE wanted to be the star that put the game away he blew it but being big headed. i dont blame rose because he played the whole game i wished he wou;d haved attacked more in the 1st half. but douglass roberts had been smart and held the ball when he got that pass with what 15 seconds or he dribbled around then go to the line this story would have been different kansas would not had the time to do what they did. im so disappointed in CDR i hope he stays another year to redeem himself and not get killed in the pros. all you high school or college ballers dont be big headed be smart hold the ball hold the game in your hands. and learn how not to drop back on free throws

this nigga said he could score 6,again fan boy ny niggas are dumb as fuck enjoy steph for another year

yeah am feeling this for real
