Tip of the hat to Syracuse

Our tip of the hat goes to Syracuse, after yet another epicly dramatic (or dramatically epic) Big East conference tournament championship at the Ga'den in Nu Yok. Seven overtimes in addition to four back-to-back games.

This is a very draining experience, because, let's face it, while basketball players play all day at the playgrounds and at AAU, there are two key differences between those games and these games:
+ there is much less defense at AAU/playground
+ there is much less game pressure (you lose a game, you play another, no one keeps records or hands out awards and banners)
