As Ray Allen and Ben Gordon engaged in a shootout for the ages Monday night, countless basketball fans watched, transfixed.

That group included Jim Calhoun.

The esteemed Connecticut coach recruited and coached both players and, were it not for his return from a family wedding, he would have attended Game 2 in person. Instead, he sat on his couch at home—or at least the edge of it.

"Obviously, I was getting goose bumps," Calhoun said in a phone interview. "I felt like a proud papa."

I always disliked Calhoun but I dont know why.
