Feed the hot hand: Butler's common sense is money

 

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. -- Perhaps you saw it on television, Pete Campbell's shooting barrage that had folks wondering whether the Sun Belt actually deserved that second bid to the NCAA tournament. If so, you know how impressive it was, how stunning it was, how it had Bill Raftery going bonkers.

Six of Pete Campbell's eight 3-pointers come in the first half on Friday. (AP)

But do you know how it happened?

How it unfolded?

If not, don't fret.

Because Campbell was peppered about the performance.

And the Butler reserve was nice enough to break it down.

"I looked at A.J. (Graves) one time (after I made one shot) and said 'good pass,'" Campbell said. "And he was like 'I'm going to keep looking for you.'"

Sounds reasonable. Then what?

"Then I think we got a few more," Campbell said. "And I kept saying the same thing and he just kept telling me to get open."

Sounds smart. And then what?

"Really, we were just trying to run our offense and look for the best shot," Campbell said. "And fortunately, some of them went down."

Some of them went down?

Ha!

Butler-UT game should be nothing short of terrific.  I look forward to this one more than any matchup this weekend.
