Griffin is better than I thought he was but to say Hansbrough couldnt hold is jock is a bit laughable. Tyler was just a decoy today.. He didnt take one jumpshot and he usually nails 4 or 5 of those a game easy. Blake is the better rebounder though for sure even though he has no one to compete with on his team for them.

OU was lucky to even make it this far in the tourny.

Wow all the hate on Hansbrough, well the people who get paid for their opinion see it much different. He had a bad game and now he shouldn't even be starting for the UNC? Im sure many other coaches would like a player like him in college.

I'd take Griffin over Hansbrough any day. AT least we get to watch him play in the NBA.

This is what everyone was hyping before the game, and Hansbrough didn't want any part of it. He said it wasn't Griffin vs. Hansbrough, but UNC vs. OU. Very mature answer if you ask me. Granted Griffin is a better talent and more athletically gifted and will probably have a much better NBA career than Tyler, but Hansbrough will go down as one of the all-time NCAA greats statistically speaking. I doubt we will ever see a Collegiate player ever put up the type of numbers that Hansbrough has. Since most great players leave after the 1st or 2nd year of College.

Whoever said Hansbrough was better?

Not to mention they force feed the ball to Griffin all game,Hansbrough is not our offense and that's why Oklahoma loss.

You need to worry about Memphis

UNC should cut down the nets. Despite OU sucking, Carolina was still that much better. It looked like UNC went through the motions and they cruised to an easy victory.

" Its better for people think you a fool rather than opening your mouth and proving it ".

Your Hansbrough hate is blinding common sense.

No it isn't.

Griffin is significantly better than Handsbro. If UNC had Griffin, they'd be undefeated right now.

but Hansbrough will go down as one of the all-time NCAA greats statistically speaking. I doubt we will ever see a Collegiate player ever put up the type of numbers that Hansbrough has. Since most great players leave after the 1st or 2nd year of College.

Only because the players who are good enough to play in the NBA don't stay 4 years. His numbers have been dwarfed by Griffin, Beasley, and Durant.

So you are rooting for both UNC and MSU in the Final Four? What about UConn and Nova as well?

haha.. No. I dont see Griffin stopping Teague , Rice or Vazques (sp?) do you?

Griffins game is pretty limited right now. He is just a bigger Thabeet which allows him to bull in for dunks / layups. His offensive game is even more limited than what Hansbrough is.. His defense is also horrible for a guy his size.

Griffin is better but dont get carried away with senseless drivel.

Griffin: 6'10, 243
Thabeet: 7'3, 255

And NBA scouts disagree with you.

Griffin would absolutely murder a team like Maryland. He'd go for 40 and 20.

Aside from being about a half foot shorter than Thabeet, Griffin can actually play tough inside and pull down more rebounds than Hans could ever hope to do.

You officially know nothing about college basketball.

Well, that game proved what we already knew; Blake Griffin is a cotdamn animal but UNC is the better team.
