When they talk about games being a mismatch on paper, I think this is what they're referring to. In related news, the line for the game is starting to close on 18 in some books.

The Shark has a new blog post up, gives a nice insight into the big 10 tourney and into his bowel movements
It was a great blog post! I love the link of his creepy winking/grinning behind Thad. If I were the Big Ten network I would off The Shark his own half hour tv show right away.
As a stats minor, this is kind of like porn to me.
Ah, then you'll love this site if you haven't already seen it:

stats minor? ugghhhhhhhhh stats almost ruined my life
Or kenpom.com. I'm a big fan of tempo-free statistics. They show a similar disparity for the two teams.
Will 68.8% from the charity stripe get it done in tournament time?
Only if we're hitting 53% from the floor.
wow guys that Evan Turner SI Cover is just kinda corny.. cool.... but corny
it's the same cover in 6 variants with other guys..... at least his isn't a bad job with photoshop... looking at you Cousins!
Those just look incredibly unprofessional. I think I've seen better photoshopping on this website.
Also, does anyone else reflexively cringe seeing a picture of Turner doing a two-handed dunk like that?
Wouldn't it be cool if you could be a porn minor?
In that case, I did lots of homework in college.
That would make me a Dr.
Perhaps it's blasphemy around these parts, but I'm getting a little tired of his act. He's become a bit of an attention whore...Love the charity work, not digging the other antics at this time of year.
/End old man rant and get off my lawn while your at it
What antics? Winking into the camera? High fiving press row after a 40 ft. game winner?
Not exactly sure that would constitute being an attention whore.
Yes, those were both instances I was referring to and perhaps I'm over-analyzing it. I would just rather see him celebrate with his teammates at tournament time. He's already gotten enough publicity to set himself up for the future.
"porn minor". I don't think so; not much good comes out of combining the two.
How did you do on your Orals?
Oh you mean that he should go jump on ET's back and celebrate with his teammates with his ridiculously large cast/brace on?
Because that wouldn't hurt anyone, right?
The Shark mentions in his blog that he had to improvise with his celebration because of the brace.
