It was an unbelievable very exciting. I hope there will be championships this exciting again. Early in the first half Memphis got in trouble with foul trouble. 4 key players (Anderson, Taggert, Dorsey and Dozier) all had 2. Luckily Rose or Douglas- Roberts weren't in that mix.  Douglas Roberts was hitting everything while Rose took only 4 shots. Kansas was playing outstanding defense on Rose. Chalmers played unbelievable D. Kansas played very unselfish ball and had balanced scoring. In the second half Rose took over with kickouts that miracle 3, drives to the hoop and 3 point plays. While Rose took over Memphis game back from a 45-39 to go up 60-51 late in the second. Memphis collapsed. Douglas- Roberts missed three straight free throws. Rose hit one of two. Kansas hit a three, and an Arthur step back two. Chamlers hit 2 free throws.  With 2 second left Chalmers hits the 3 over Rose. In overtime Memphis played terrible. Kansas went up 71-65 and didn't look back winning 75-68. You can't blame it on Rose and Douglas-Roberts free throws though. Dorsey falling 30 feet away from the hoop and Taggart stealing and getting the ball tied up. He should of called timeout. Arthur contributed excellently with 20 points and 10 rebounds. Brandon Rush played good defense with 12 points.
