    INDIANAPOLIS — Brian Zoubek sure enjoyed one heck of a 22nd birthday.

    With 3.6 seconds left and his team leading Butler by one point in the NCAA championship game, the 7-foot-1 Duke senior stepped to the foul line in front of 70,930 crazed fans at Lukas Oil Stadium.

    Read the full story here.

    **In related news, Coach K said he has “no interest” in taking over the Nets next year.
