oh Gil......I am sloooooowly recovering from having my beloved Hawks THIS close to the final four. You gotta admit...it was one of the best basketball stories around. Gotta love that Phil Martelli! And what can you say that hasn't been said about Jameer and Delonte???
I actually think I feel better that it could have gone either way at the end. I would have been devastated if it was a blow-out.
Interestingly enough, I was listening to a live radio interview with Martelli this morning...and he and his team feel the opposite way. They could have accepted it more if it had been a blow out.
Gotta admit I was rooting for Xavier too. Actually, I would root for anyone over Duke.
