Some things I've noticed during the tournament

What have you noticed this year during the tournament?

1. Many officials are pointing after making a call. It isn't like a birddog (thank God), but just a point after the hammer is dropped pointing at the player that the foul is called on.
2. Many officials are routinely giving double tweets for fouls. My friend in the Pac-10 used to do this and it was noticeable. Now, many officials are doing it.
3. If I was drawing up a defense for Tyler Hansborough, I would let him shoot any jumper he wants to take. I would also tell my players to not swing at him once he gets the ball down low. He wants contact, he needs contact and he cannot shoot anything but a layup very well. I think he should stay in school or he should have left last year.
4. The higher seeded teams seem to play smarter down the stretch.
