Stop the presses: OSU senior not ready to be yesterday's news

Twice, they say, Lewis has demanded the ball in the huddle this season. The first time was more than two months ago, a last-second shot that beat Tennessee. The latest a 23-foot 3-point bomb with two seconds left to push No. 1 Ohio State to overtime Saturday against Xavier.

lavender was abusing him all game until OT

2-13 shooting

5pts/8asst/3steals/4reb 0-0 FT

bothersome, maybe. but abusing Conley?

I don't think so.


BTW

Conley:

7-15 21pts/4asst/3blks/2steals/5reb 6-6 FT




Great Game for Ron Lewis too...this is his thread.

8-13 27pts/8reb/2asst 7-7 FT plus 4-5 3ptfg and game tying 3 with 2.0 sec left in regulation

YOU ARE THE MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've seen # 1 seeds escape from games like this before . . . and they usually go on a roll. I'm calling it right now: When the Bucks cut down the nets two weeks from Monday, Lewis' shot will enter Buckeye lore as "Holy Buckeye II".

BTW, Mike Conley officially grew up today: Lavender's quickness defensively took his confidence and aggressiveness away for most of the game, but Lewis gave him the chance to get that confidence back, and he did. Bad news for the rest of the tourney field.

COMMENTARY
?The Shot? could follow Lewis, OSU for a long time
Sunday, March 18, 2007

BOB HUNTER

LEXINGTON, Ky. ? Ron Lewis was asked question after question about the shot, and he dissected it like a frog in a high school biology class. He wasn?t asked about a shot, 12 of which he totaled yesterday, but about "The Shot," the season-saving bomb that doubtless will be a proper noun throughout Lewis? life.

An NBA three?
"I think it was further than that," he said.
Told the NBA line was 23 feet, 9 inches, he did a quick tally on "The Shot."
"Twenty-five," he said, smiling.
Think about that. Twenty-five feet and two seconds from No. 1 Ohio State?s second-round elimination by unranked Xavier and a sudden and unexpected end to Lewis? college basketball career. "I wanted it," Lewis said. "I told (Mike Conley Jr.) even before we left the huddle, ?Just give me the ball.? "

Continued....
