Just a terrible night of basketball if you are a Gonzaga/Duke fan like I am. First, Duke is a no show against an athletic LSU team. Redick disappears and Duke goes down by 8. Ugly, ugly game that only served to remind me what a warrior Shelden Williams is. The rest of the Duke team just didn't play with any passion.

Later, Gonzaga plays a brilliant 30 minutes of basketball, proving to the whole world that there is no such thing as a mid-major. Morrison nails his usual tough shots, but the role players step up and play a great game as well. The wheels come off down the stretch, and somehow they Zags give up the lead with 4 seconds left. The last likely image of the great Adam Morrison will be of him falling to the floor in tears.

Rough night for a Gonzaga/Duke fan.

I watched both games. I knew you'd be pretty bummed out. Especially the Gonzaga game - wow - can't believe they lost that one. I was hoping to watch at least one of those teams again...
