Myles Turner time. Let's see what he can do.

Edit: Woah. He's not on the starting lineup. Is he not playing or he comes off the bench?

I am stuck in office on west coast so stuck doing only occasional gamecast check ins. Does Turner look as bad as his box score makes him out to be? He has two rebounds, two turnovers, a foul in about 12 minutes? Butler's frontline is not exactly Dikembe Mutombo and Ben Wallace..

Everything's streaming live and legal if you're able to view it.  I'm watching Baylor Georgia St so I can't comment on Turner.

He's only started a few games this year. We really don't like playing the most efficient player in the conference.

He hasnt made an impact so far. Not good for his draft stock.

You should just set up a script to post this every year around this time  ;)

He sure can recruit though!

Hard to make an impact when he plays two minutes at a time before being pulled for Connor Lammert.

Rick Barnes is universally hated in the state of Texas, not just when we inevitably struggle in March. Hope this is the last time I have to say that. He has recruited some great guys, but it shouldn't be hard to recruit at UT with the number one athletic program financially and one of the best talent pools in the country.

Fair enough.

But you'd think they'd use their size against this undersized Butler squad.

I don't blame you.  In terms of underachieving with massive talent, Barnes losing in the 2nd round with that Durant/Augustin team was second only to Dale Brown losing in the same round with Shaq, Stanley Roberts and Chris Jackson.

Reggie Miller comparing Stanley Johnson to Lebron. Really wish we could trade up for him, but don't see it happening . Smart,Bradley and Johnson would be the pest perimeter defense in the NBA

Georgia St. making it very interesting.

Man, these #14 seeds are feisty this year. Feisty.

The box score I am looking at (espn) doesn't show minutes for some reason. It looks like he normally plays about 22 minutes a game... I get that Texas has some big bodies, but does this guy really need some more seasoning before coming to the next level?

RJ Hunter. This has been the most exciting first round for my memory.
