ATB: Friday Night Lights With Jack Cooley, Harvard, and Plenty of Conference Tourney Action…--Rush The Court
Survive & Advance. Twenty-two more teams were eliminated from eight conference tournaments tonight as we continue to whittle our way down from over 300 teams to currently 258 still vying for the national championship.
...
Horizon League. Uh-oh. #5 Butler crushed #4 Milwaukee on Friday night, setting up a showdown with #1 Valparaiso on the Crusaders’ home floor Saturday, and making everyone wonder if Brad Stevens is working his magic again. On the other side of the bracket, #3 Detroit easily dispatched #6 Youngstown State to move into the semifinals as well.

Another one to watch: Butler vs. Milwaukee (8:30 p.m., ESPN3). The Horizon League has a wide-open conference tournament this season, and these two teams have the pieces to make a run and get the automatic bid. The two teams split the regular-season meetings 1-1, with each team winning on its homecourt. Both teams play very good defense, with Milwaukee defending the arc closely and Butler preferring to control the glass and interior.

Utah Jazz: Millsap, Harris good to go tonight vs. Heat--Deseret News
Jazz coach Tyrone Corbin said Gordon Hayward will begin against Wade and Josh Howard will start on James, but Utah (16-18) needs a team effort to have a chance against Miami (28-7).
...
Hayward said the Jazz need to be "aggressive defensively." When it comes to guarding the freakishly athletic 6-foot-8, 250-pound James, which Hayward will likely do at times, the 6-8, 210-pound Hayward said Jazz players need to "get in his way, make him do things that he doesn't want to do and get him a little frustrated."
Hayward also emphasized the importance of limiting turnovers and not taking poor shots, which lead to fast breaks for the Heat.

Andray Blatche had waited so long to be back on the court, back with his teammates, that he couldn’t leave the floor on Thursday immediately after the Washington Wizards concluded practice. He stayed around to play two-on-two basketball with rookies Jan Vesely, Chris Singleton and Shelvin Mack, eagerly trying to make up for more than an entire month of lost time.

Heat guards Mario Chalmers and Norris Cole combined to score five points on 2-of-14 shooting from the field. Chalmers didn’t play at all in the fourth quarter. Instead, James played point guard and ran the offense. James was visibly frustrated with Chalmers in the first half and also scolded Dexter Pittman for a silly foul.
