Chuck picks incorrectly almost every game. Nba and college. Not the most comforting endorsement.

Do you ever shut up?

TY, I debated being the first person to say it.

Jesus christ for pointing out chuck picks incorrectly on TV at an alarming clip?

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that. They give him shit about it constantly on NBA on TNT.

Didn't Chuck pick KU over Nova?

Yes but because he wanted Nova to win (he said "hope I am wrong") because his daughter went to Nova and apparently begged him not to pick them because of the running joke about how often he is wrong.

"GUARANTEE"

But I guess if you don't watch the NBA on TNT weekly to watch he shaq and kenny you wouldn't know how much they fuck with him about being terrible at guessing winners.

That chrome is missing from the trailer hitch again.

Sad that even on national championship day some of you would rather shit talk than anything else.

Strange.

Chuck picked Miami over us fwiw. For those so eager to defend him and his winner picking abilities.

[MICHHAWK]

the social medias is not for thoughtful discussion. if you seek that, you need to look elsewhere.

[MICHHAWK]

charles barkley and kenny smith are the best thing to happen to the tourney in the last 20 years.

Why switch up what's been working on this entire run?

Lot of exciting stuff in here.

Lunardi:

"Kansas would have beaten Villanova in the semifinals even if Wildcats guard Justin Moore had been healthy. The Jayhawks would have beaten any team in this tournament with their play these past two games. One has to think North Carolina will need to be nearly perfect to prevent a Kansas championship."

I agree with this but I think it's more which of the two guys pick up fouls -- or do they let them play:

"Lunardi: It has to be Armando Bacot, or, more specifically, his injured ankle. North Carolina will have its hands full with KU big man David McCormack if Bacot is healthy. If he's limited, which sure seems likely, I'm not sure there is enough length or enough fouls in the Carolina frontcourt to keep McCormack from carving up the lane."

At the end of this "Lunardi score prediction: Kansas 84, North Carolina 72"
That's quite the spread!

Chuck is awesome

I love him.

I gave him some shit about being wrong a lot, but boy am I glad he was right last night.

What a roller coaster of emotions.

Self pulling Dave out to the top of the key and dragging Bacot out from under the rim, while posting Braun and opening up the lane qas a stroke of coaching Genius.

best in game strategy adjustment coach in the game.....

this changeup hasn’t been mentioned enough, imo

[TDub]

just genius, really changed how we were able to attack after going 6-21 in the lane the first half

I also like that one of the more regular college guys called it at halftime. Said look for Self to start posting up Och or CB. I love the NBA guys personalities, but they clearly watch a lot more NBA than college. The constant getting names wrong was driving me nuts at times.

Chuck knows a lot about Auburn.

Kenny a lot about UNC.

But other than that I didn't think they provided as good of insight as we get regularly from Bilas and the other regular college analysts.

They never do. CBS doesn't have a lot of people that do. ESPN from top to bottom still has the best analysts.

Since 2001 when the Recruiting Services Consensus Index (RSCI) service began, no national champion has ever had less than 4 Top 100 players in its rotation.

Kansas won despite having just two this year in McCormack at #30 and Wilson at #51.
