Other Conference Tournaments Thread

I watched so many games yesterday it was unbelievable.

I watched Western lose. I watched Kansas go nuts. I watched Thunder Dan Majerle almost have a stroke trying to get Grand Canyon--an ONLINE SCHOOL, I'll have you know--into the Dance. I watched Virginia put on a clinic against Carolina. I watched them play on that chocolate mountain the WAC. I started at 1:00 and we finally turned the television off at about 1:30 a.m. The only time I got up off the couch was to go get Penn Station. I need to be committed.

Yet you couldn't be bothered to start the UK/Tenn prediction thread? For shame.

Computer was too far away from the couch.

How so? I still think they got that one totally wrong. Yes it was intentional. But that does not make it flagrant. Isn't the definition of flagrant excessive or violent force that could cause injury? That was neither. I see screens in every game where guys do much worse and nothing gets called. Knees and hips extended in a much more malicious way. I think Allen is a punk as well but that call was made on reputation.

It used to be, but not anymore. Remember they took the intentional out and put it in the flagrant 1 rule.

So what makes an intentional foul be considered a flagrant 1 now?

Nothing more than it's intentional. Don't ask me why they did this because it doesn't make sense to me either.

Anything judged to be intentional then should be a flagrant 1? If that's the rule it's really dumb. There are plenty of intentional fouls that are just smart basketball. Not to mention all the clock stopping fouls at the end of games.
