We always called it hustle, where it's a complete free for all for scoring. You do anything you can to score, and everyone else does everything they can do to make you not score, fouls are basically encouraged. Any two point shot is 2 points, 3 point shots are 3 points, but whenever you make a shot, you go to the Free Throw Line (or the 3 point line) and you either get to shoot until you miss for 1 point shots, or you shoot until you miss up to 3 and then you take the ball out.

Cool. That's "American" you just described. And the way I've always played it (even in America) is that all shots no matter where you score them from count as 1. Once you score, you take the ball behind the three point line for another one pointer, if you score, you either check the ball and start being hounded and guarded by the others on the floor, or sometimes, if everyone is feeling lazy, you shoot for another shot before checking the ball.

Well todays the big day...will George Mason and their merry horde of bandwagon jumpers go to the final...I think Florida will pound them like.....88-64

 

[10Ruud]

Close Florida wins 73-58,,, George Mason

haha, state fans are so ******* stupid....they don't make the tourney for 10 years, then Sendek comes they struggle for a bit and then make the sweet 16 two years in a row and this past year the 2nd round and they have forced him out. they think they are a powerhouse like dook or Carolina....when will those brick-infatuated fools learn.

Damn, can't believe UCLA did LSU like that. While I won't be too excited should they beat Florida Monday night, at least LA will have another champion.

UCLA vs. Florida

the game CBS wanted

btw the two semifinal games were s*itty as hell.

Joakim Noah French-Swedish-Cameroon-American But he'll play for France

Son of Yannick Noah, who won Roland-Garros in tennis in 1983 He's amazing, I hope he'll win Final Four with Gators

Damn straight, bro.


PAC-10 REPRESENT!.........just too ******* bad it had to be the Bruins......anybody but the Bruins, man

 

[10Ruud]

Those 2 games were by far the worst 2 games I've seen the whole tourney....Ucla/Fla should be good..I think Florida has the slight edge though.

 

[SlayerDeuS]

They are forcing me to cheer for the blasted Gators.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

I really think Florida will beat down UCLA. But that Mbah a Moute will be a really nice pro one day. Farmar isn't impressive.

I'm just fucking glad that George Mason lost. I wish it had been by more. I was so damn sick and tired of hearing about them.

After the first two weeks this tournament had, the semifinals were a massive letdown. Lets hope the final gives us something to remember other than the "One Shining Moment" montage at the end.

 

[10Ruud]

I agree....after the great tourney overall....we all deserve a good close game.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

I can't WAIT for One Shining Moment.

 

[Chacarita Juniors]

Although I want the Cali team to win...

*Gator Clap*

 

[10Ruud]

What a ****ty game!

 

[ShiftyPowers]

It's a mismatch like I said 7 posts above. UCLA isn't in the same class as Florida. They beat Bama, Gonzaga, Memphis, and LSU. Not exactly Duke, UConn, and Villanova.

 

[Lennon]

Go Gatorrssss

Goosebumps, man, goosebumps.

If there weren't 6 other guys in the same room as me, I probably would've shed a tear or two.
