When current Brooklyn Nets coach Lionel Hollins coached the Memphis Grizzlies in 2011, he said he couldn't even watch his son Austin play for the University of Minnesota because the college game was too boring.
"I watched Wisconsin and Minnesota play down the stretch, and I couldn't take it," Hollins said then. "They just hold the ball and hold the ball, and try to get a shot with 10 seconds on the clock."
Badgers coach Bo Ryan has used the slow-down tactics to great success, including last year's run to the Final Four and a 20-2 start this year that has Wisconsin ranked No. 5. Wisconsin ranks 39th in the country at 74.4 points per game this season, but many teams at schools both big and small have employed a more deliberate offensive system over the years to neutralize athletic shortcomings.
Explain to me why the AP would pick Wisconsin out of 300+ Division 1 programs? The article acknowledges that the Badgers are in the top 40 in the nation in scoring (4th in the Big 10 in case you are interested). Is Bo just recruiting too many unathletic (meaning white) guys for the taste of the modern day sports media? Three paragraphs of true idiocy.
