I know I'm weird. I find the NBA far more entertaining than college basketball, a very unpopular view amongst those (in Madison, WI at least) who haven't watched an NBA game since each team in the league was changing its colors to purple and teal in some kind of Starter jacket arms race. Last night, the Bucks didn't have a game, so I watched Wisconsin play Gonzaga, mostly so I could make conversation with all of the Badger fans around here and not sound like a complete fool.

I saw Wisconsin jack up contested three after contested three in desperate fashion, despite having plenty of time remaining on the shot clock. Hearing Jay Bilas say stuff like "Wisconsin has been using all of the shot clock" with 14 seconds left on it suggests that this is normal behavior, but you do have to keep in mind that this guy also thinks The Pterodactyl sucks. Individualised observations:

• Jon Leuer scored 18 points in ugly fashion. I felt like I was like watching a team trying to run its offense through Mark Madsen.
• Jason Bohannon needs to stop shooting, because he isn't very good at it.
• Keaton Nankivil looks like he may be the best player on the team, but had an off night.
• Jordan Taylor is a quality player and should probably start ahead of Bohannon or Jarmusz.
• Trevon Hughes isn't a super great, but his experience, intelligence and decent skills make him a very good college player

Maybe its too early in the season, maybe this is the result of back-to-back game nights. I'm sure I'll be drawn in to watch again.

Or maybe I'll watch Marquette.
