“The highest level of basketball you can find” and Tirico is 100% right.

San Antonio-OKC was supposed to be, has been so far, and will continue to be for this series, some of the best basketball ever.

And the Knicks would push San Antonio to at least 6 games and maybe win.

Brad Stevens: "I thought we really struggled to generate good looks against Philly. I thought they deserved to win."

Stevens said he would have signed up for most of what happened this season. However...

"We were also 3-11 against the top-three seeds in the West and the other top-two in the East. So we have to get better."

This year!

- Gonzaga at #3. (Despite adding a SOS stat to the spreadsheet)
- Michigan was tracking to be #1 but one stat totally derailed them. Maybe that’s a flaw in my process. We’ll see.
- Vandy and Iowa State in the Final Four
- Zero double digit seeds in R32. Sheesh

Annual March Madness spreadsheet, a thread.

First, general thoughts:

- Sports games are obviously not determined on a spreadsheet, as it should be. You got to play the game.
- The NCAAB tournament inherently engineers randomness (pardon the jargon there).

[Austin Barach @Austin_Barach]

So I made five (5) tweaks to this year’s spreadsheet.

You could say that if I needed to make that many tweaks, last year’s process sucked. Maybe it did.

At least the critical thinking evolved this year.

@TylerJAitken Of course, TA

The Cornell/Dartmouth rivalry dates back to 1900.

@DartmouthFTBL is enjoying another good season (6-2, 3-2).

@BigRed_Football feels like ‘99 riding a 4-game win streak.

Thrilled to be filling in today!

Coming off their best season since 1999, the Big Green host a @MaristMBB team that hung right with Xavier on Monday.

Super excited to be calling college basketball!
