I'm glad UCLA won, since i picked them beforehand, but i do feel sorry for Morrison still. I'd draft Morrison in a hurry, he plays his heart out, and loves to win.

They couldn't make the NCAA tournament without him for sure. Gonzaga would have won if they didn't turn over the ball in the last 10 seconds <lose the ball for points and then lose the ball by jump ball/possesion>.
There are a number of things they could have done to win, and they didn't. Morrison was at fault on numerous occasions, and other people were at fault on other occasions. For you to say that his teammates let him down is ridiculous. They all blew it, Morrison included..

All Bastita had to do was to hold the ball and not lose it but he did. All the blonde head guy that dribble the ball up the court <after Bastita lose the ball and UCLA scored> had to do was to move the ball but but he couldn't. Now you tell me that not let down or what.
Nowhere in my posts that I said Morrison was all that great in the last 5-10 minutes. The *whole team* screw up big time <coaching staff too>. But if his teammates did use their head, they could have won.
Just like a football game, when you have the lead with a few seconds to go, you HOLD ON TO THE DARN BALL and DO NOT GET ANY TURNOVERS. That's simple.

You do realize that Morrison had the ball right before Batista right, and that he almost threw it away? Morrison could have gotten the ball out of trouble, but failed to do so also.
