Cinderella Was Who We Thought They Were!
Sunday, March 23, 2008
In my Cinderella post the other day I failed to even bring up the team that everyone was already naming the Cinderella of the tournament in Davidson. Of course if everyone is calling you a sleeper and/or potential Cinderella it kind of diminishes the title, but I think after coming back from down 17 to knock off Georgetown....we've finally found our Cinderella.
Oh and if you didn't know it by now....this Stephen Curry kid is pretty good.....

I think I've got it. Let me check.
Thanks, AA...I'd love to see that again. Nantz and Packer literally peed their pants on that Curry layup (I nearly did as well), was a great play.
More pics of his mom next week! YIPPEE!! Hope she sports another exciting bra color. That red was hot today.
what's with Packer announcing the Gtown tournament games the last 2 years? he announced vs. Vandy and UNC last year, and obviously vs. Ohio St. Seems like he's pretty anti-Georgetown...
...just as the refs seemed to be too. 3 offensive fouls against Roy Hibbert? C'mon, let them play!
Never mind the fact that Georgetown built most of their lead with Hibbert sitting on the bench. He was fairly worthless out there, did not work to get in scoring position and his teammates did not look for him. Georgetown stop hitting shots and Curry started hitting his, the refs had nothing to do with it.
And news flash, Billy Packer is anti-everyone.
Way to go with the Dennis Green-esque title. I wonder how many other people picked up on it. Anyway, I liked it. I must say I was surprised to hear Davidson beat Georgetown.
ha, a big shock that "tarheelfan" had that to say about Georgetown, the team that embarrassed the Heels in last year's tourney
so you're saying that the 3 offensive fouls against hibbert were justified? and maybe the fact that he was on the bench most of the game had something to do with Hibbert's lack of shot attempts
can't wait to see UNC go down again this year
Thanks again, AA, for your timely post of that key 5-pt. sequence. That dipsy-do layup was something. What amazes me about Curry is how quickly he squares up and releases the 3-ball, it's lizard-tongue fast.
Can't wait to see how Wisconsin, like G-town a top-notch defensive club, will guard him on Friday.
AA,
Can you post the 5-pt. sequence where Curry blew by the Georgetown D for that electrifying reverse layup followed by a deep 3 that broke a 60-all tie and gave Davidson the lead for good? That was Curry at his best, and that's saying something given his dynamic play to get his team to the Sweet 16. What a terrific talent -- and a great TEAM player to boot.
