Adam Terrific game! If 'Cuse could make an effing layup, they'd have won after 4 OTs. Padgett would have called that foul at the end of the 4th OT to end this brutality.
Adam 'Cuse hadn't led in extra innings, now they're up 5 with 3 left. Both teams just look exhausted. Isn't it after 1:00 out there? Wow! Missed dunk, offensive rebound, "and one."

Adam budjones05 wroteI think Padgett would of counted the basketball at the end of the 2nd half! Good point, there wouldn't have been anything after that.
NewNCref Snaqwells wroteGood point, there wouldn't have been anything after that. Padgett wouldn't even have needed to do that. After dealing with coaches for years, I'm sure he knows that all he needed to do was call some more "reaches" and "over the backs" to get guys at the FT line more often. C'mon guys, it's called preventative officiating!
Nevadaref NewNCref wroteTwo big time DQ-ing fouls in the 4th OT, but both easy/good calls I thought. One PC and another during rebounding action, but like I said, both pretty obvious. Either way, this is one heck of a game, though Jamie Luckie must be a terrible official like everyone says. What kind of official would let a game go 4 OTs?!?!?!:p I don't believe that he was one of the officials. Officials: John Cahill ,James Breeding ,Bob Donato
grunewar Wow, what a game! I am told the reason we didn't hear from Padgett is he was curled up in a ball in the corner of his den in a cold sweat repeating, "T O O N, T O O N!" (See "The Shining", R E D R U M.) 😉
BktBallRef NewNCref wroteNo way this was a foul. The contact was not from behind, it was from the side while both were executing legal moving screens. That is not what happened. The UConn defender was chasing, he was not setting a screen. The Syracuse teammate was running beside the defender and turned left into him. I would compare it to walking beside a swimming pool with a friend and deciding to knock him in.
