January 6, 200917 yr You think Pitino drew up that as the play 2? Wow come on. No way.. I bet Ricky P ripped into him for taking what was a terrible shot. Regardless of him hitting it or not. It was a horrible last shot.
January 6, 200917 yr Author I almost threw up when Sosa hit that shot. As soon as he shot it, I never doubted it was going in. I just had that feeling that UK has this crazy comeback that they had to lose.
January 6, 200917 yr As soon as he shot it, I never doubted it was going in. I just had that feeling that UK has this crazy comeback that they had to lose. From where we were sitting, I was almost directly behind him when he shot, and it looked good from the release...
January 6, 200917 yr Do you really think Earl and Samardo would play as poorly in seven games? The fact is you got us in a game where two of our top players disappeared and you still lost. And a game where UL shot way better than they usually do. Look at it both ways.
January 6, 200917 yr They don't play seven games in NCAA basketball, so who cares about a series. Even though I think UofL would easily win it. UofL was/is the better team, and they proved it yesterday. They led the game for over 39 minutes, getting nothing from their top two scorers. I agree with most on here, Sosa's shot was horrible, but he hit it. It should've never came to that. Clark fell asleep and put them in that situation. For the record, on RP's radio show tonight, he said the plan was to let Sosa take the last shot unless he got doubled, then he was to kick it to Scott on the wing. I am really tired of hearing about the lucky shot. You what to talk about luck, look at the 30fter Porter hit, then the pump fake three he hit, along with the three Stevenson hit. I mean come on, that was "luck" too. It's all part of the game, you win or you lose. It's that simple Porters was a 30fter? You obviously didn't watch the game then.
January 6, 200917 yr Nice win for Louisville and you were the better team this day. I feel that many are giving Pitino far too much credit on the last play, considering that has been by far his biggest weakness in coaching throughout his career. I loved him when he was at UK, but always stated he was one of the worst coaches in the NCAA to call a play at the end of a half or regulation. I would rather spin the wheel of fortune and get whatever coaches decision pops up.
