Unreal
My concerns about Memphis free throw shooting (I picked them to get bounced in the Sweet 16 because of its sub-60 percent rate in the regular season) weren't unfounded. Even though the Tigers were better than 70 percent as a team in the NCAA tournament, their old habits resurfaced at the wrong time.
Chris Douglas-Roberts just went clank, clank with his team up 62-60 with 10.8 seconds left, but teammate Robert Dozier bailed him out with an offensive rebound.
Now it's up to Derrick Rose to extend the lead with a pair of free throws after Kansas' grab-and-foul.
The first one ... boink!
The second one ... Swish.
63-60.
Check that.
Mario Chalmers for three just before the buzzer and it drops.
63-all.
We're going to overtime, and that's OK with me. Drama like this deserved to be milked for maximum effect.
