What a fantstic game. Butler didn't win but they were far from losers. Even though Duke won, all the post-game talk has been about how well Butler played.
One thing struck me as odd, obviously Zoubek was instructed by Coach K to miss the last foul shot. Why? It damned near lost the game for them. Why give the opponent a chance to win? A chance to tie, maybe. But giving the opponent a chance to win is leaving too much to fate. Of course, what do I know? Coach K is polishing his trophy tonight and I'm sitting home without a job.
Congrats to both teams. One of the best championship games ever.
