That up 20 with a minute left, Louisville is still jacking up early shot clock threes and throwing crazy highlight real alleyoops?

Ugh. Salt in the wound and perhaps sour grapes, but that just seemed so classless to me. As a guy there in person, it just stunk of unnecessary dick-move strutting.
 
Eh, we left our guys in. Plus, that dunk was sweet - I've seen him do that before though.

The true answer lies in the handshake. We know Pitino and JAB are long time friends but JAB wouldn't give Ricky more than a real quick handshake today. I'm not even sure he looked at him. It was as if he was forced to shake a long time enemy. Looking back at this season, I really feel bad that we couldn't beat Pitino when we had a chance.
 
nope. If we wanted to do something about it we could guard them
I'm sorry this is such a copout response. With the exception of Fab's 360 dunk that was rehashed here when he passed (which most agreed was goofy at the time), I can't think of other examples where we would do this. We'd pull the ball out and run clock, maybe shoot a 3 at the end to avoid a shot clock violation. Gimme a break.

we still had our starting group in there
 
The most annoying thing to me was Lappas and the fact that almost every trip down the court Mahmoud would set a moving screen and not get called for it. It seems like we always get called for it (Roberson) but Mahmoud got away with it on almost every possession.
 
It annoyed me when they did that to us in 2010.

Yesterday, eh. When a team plays like crap, their opponent earns the opportunity to have some fun.
 
I didn't really bother me. It isn't the classiest move by Pitino but then again he isn't the classiest guy. The game is was over who cares is kind of my mindset.
 
I didn't watch the second half. Was too disgusted by the crappy effort that let L'ville go on that huge run to end the first half.

I give credit to anyone who actually watched this game until the final buzzer.
I couldn't do it. I bailed around the 4 minute mark when it was clear we weren't going to come back from an 18 pt deficit.

They do that all the time.
Pitino commented fairly recently that he's known Boeheim for 40 years and he still gets the "wet fish" handshake after the game.

Meanwhile...running up the score when you have the game in hand in the final minute is really lame.
Sportsmanship seems to have become a quaint old-fashioned notion.
Both coaches should have given the bench at least a minute...although is there anyone Pitino doesn't play?
 
on the list of things to be bothered over in this game, that was at the bottom.

and feeding the faithful is to be expected. Is that not why they are there?

There was a deal in place with the local escort company that if Louisville scored more than 75 points their potential recruits would get free "Tacos"

Play better defense
