yes, just baffling he didn't keep the ball in his hands

The only thing I could think of there was he had ten seconds to get the ball past halfcourt. I can usually tell how long is left using the shot clock, but the shot clock was off. I was wondering if we were going to get a ten seconds call.

Thats how I feel. After he and ALo threw it back and forth a few times waiting on a foul, KD realized they were not going to foul and he had to get it across the half court. He panicked and tried a bad pass.

Bad luck is all it is…Kennedy would have been a difference maker in this game.

Kennedy would have been the difference for sure.

Maybe so, but we’ll never know because he is a moron who punched a wall

Definitely let his team down with that lapse of judgement.

Used to be really invested in Tiger games before but other things in life are way too important. It’s a disappointing loss and all we can do is hope for the best in the future. Don’t really have a lot of choice

Agree 100%

When I was a teen, every Tiger loss just ruined my entire day. Oh, and losing in the NCAA tournament? I couldn’t get any sleep or eat anything at all.

Now that I’m a little older and wiser, I keep the “highs” in life at a reasonable level, and never allow the “lows” to permeate my mind. I’m disappointed that we lost tonight, but thankful for the great season we all enjoyed.

As a 26 year old I need to learn to never let "the lows permeate my mind"

I'm sick thinking about what has happened and can't shake the feeling.

Truly feels like a death has just happened and that's ridiculous.

Sorta like a former player who just had to have a toke prior to the final four and got suspended.

Ike was devastated after the loss.
Ike’s remedy for any horrific loss, is a quick trip to West Memphis and get knocked around a bit. This trip was great
Two black eyes and six upper Lip stitches. Ike felt much better when he arrived home

Sports are just entertainment. None of it actually means anything

I envy you for that feeling.

Definitely been down all weekend. The other developments in the tournament just make it worse. Could have been playing the vols for a trip to elite 8. Feel the worst for KD. He lost his composure in the biggest spot of his career. His dream of playing in the tournament will likely turn into a life long nightmare of what could have been. Just sports? Sure it’s just sports but damn this one hurts.

It does hurt. The whole freaking planet gets turned inside out over sports. Its an emotional and passionate experience. Some fans can shrug it off very quickly, most can't.
