You know I have the MVC’s back on a lot of things. For instance, this idea that is gaining momentum that the MVC is fraudulent because all of their quality wins have come in-conference. Hey, look at bubble teams from power conferences. You’re not going to find too many that have big out-of-conference wins. So don’t lay a double standard on the MVC. However…<\/p>\n

Check out the halftime scores of the nine games of the MVC Tourney: 24-23, 24-22, 20-20, 23-19, 23-21, 25-16, 30-24, 19-10, 18-17. Consider yourself warned to tune into games involving Valley teams sometime in the second half.<\/p>\n

On an unrelated note, the most convenient way to keep up with conference tournament action is by stopping by The Bracket Board<\/a>, and utilizing the One Stop Shop. <\/p>\n

Talk about having the rebounding gods on your side. The two teams (minus Millsap) combined to go 29 for 96 (30.2%) from the field, and 2 for 35 (5.7%) from 3. There were plenty of missed shots, and naturally Millsap grabbed a lot of the rebounds to clinch his third consecutive national rebounding title. This was the worst 3-point shooting brickfest in the land this season (minimum 25 attempts).<\/p>\n
