wilt the stilt

Syracuse- Wisconsin and the 3 point line [View all]

I thought Syracuse played a way better game in the sense they penetrated the defense better and took way better shots. They scored 3 times as many points inside the perimeter and almost lost. The last play was exactly the a microcosm of the game. Wisconsin never got the ball inside the 3 point line and they only needed a basket to pull ahead. Something is wrong when you really breakdown a defense better and you get much better shots and you almost lose.
