This thread is as dead as the game itself.

Memo to self ..don't ever win a semifinal Saturday game in an emotional buzzer beater...it seems like it doesn't help .

See Gonzaga 2021 for another example.

It doesn't hurt either. Plenty of teams played tough, last-minute games in the semis and won the title.

This is the argument that talking heads tried to put forth when we won, but thankfully, Jay Bilas and Dick Vitale weren't having it.

As Bill Raftery and Grant Hill were toasting him near the end of the game, he told them to stop so that the spotlight would be on the players and not him. Total class.
