NORMAN — Stephen Curry got his. And it was a bunch. Blake Griffin eventually got his, too. And more. Curry wowed with a career- and game-high 44 points for No. 21-ranked Davidson, but Griffin and the No. 12 Sooners surged behind a big second half to win 82-78 in the second round of the NIT Season Tip-Off before an estimated 9,118 at Lloyd Noble Center. Griffin scored 21 of his team-high 25 after intermission and added a career-high 21 rebounds to help send the Sooners to Madison Square Garden for the semifinals of the tournament next week. Griffin and Curry, representing 40 percent of the Associated Press All-America first team, delivered on their star status with 19 NBA scouts in the house and several members of the Thunder in the seats — all hoping to catch a glimpse of the next big things. Afterward, two scouts had this exchange: "That was a treat.” The reply: "Truly outstanding.” 1 day ago. +25 YDS [x]JSHett submitted a story called Cowboys stadium to host 2014 NCAA Final Fourhe men’s Final Four basketball championship will return to the Dallas-Fort... he men’s Final Four basketball championship will return to the Dallas-Fort Worth area in 2014 after a 28-year absence.
