    Kansas looks really good right now. No one can play defense like Kansas.

    Maybe Princeton, they invented defense, they still play it.
    But yeah, KU plays that suffocating defense.

    I really think this could be like 2014 where you had a 7 seed UConn play an 8 seed in Kentucky for the title….not necessarily those teams but those seeds. It’s just so wide open. Anything goes.

    I think people are comfortable with the reality of kansas, duke, unc, and kentucky not being the dominant tourney teams anymore. the one and done has changed the game in multiple ways. calipari was the ring leader and coach k perfected it with a mix of freshman and vets. the tourney is team ball now, and the most talented teams often won't win. teams on a run and a nice veteran mix do the best. people loved the randomness of the tourney in the first 2 days. now the randomness is in every round and makes each game more exciting. no one is a shoo in anymore. the team that plays the best wins. the talent level isn't at the contrast it once was.

    Forget the word “tracks” as it’s not about tracking.

    He’s just saying it makes sense that you’ve gone downhill since joining SBR. The logic tracks.

    It’s much more of a joke on SBR than you.

    I laughed.

    Oh ok thanks. I get it now. Yeah I don't know what it is. It's a strange phenomenon LOL. Not saying I was an Ace handicapper before I came here but I would usually get a few big payouts a year.so far nadda

    The only bet I have alive is

    Uconn to win it all
    Rangers to win it all
    Shai Alexander most improved player
    Jokic MVP

    10 bucks to win 31 grand.

    My other parlays are dead. I should have picked Miami from the start to win it all. Now that I watched them play for the first time today, it was pretty obvious they're a well rounded team. Guys who can score in iso ball are always key in the ncaa tournament.

    Absolutely. That was a great bet. And they are odds-on favorites right now. Very unusual heading into the Final Four. Honestly can't recall the last time a team won the first 4 all in blowout fashion. But they gotta avoid getting too high on themselves, buying into hype, and getting lax. It's never as easy as it seems. If they bring their A game, they should win.

    They are very smart and well-coached. Their shot charts are a thing of beauty. 3's and chippies/dunks. Fundamentally sound. SDSU kind of similar though. Will be a fun basketball game.

    Yes agree with you all they share the ball so well and no one is the superstar anyone on the court can be the closer when the game is on the line. I noticed after they won the game to get to the Elite 8 they didn't get super excited and even the final four , but as a big under dog they didn't over do it, I think be cause they know there work is not done yet ! They play with so much confidence and don't get rattled even against a tough Tennessee defense. The key to these games I'm telling you drive the ball to the hole force fouls and it will open the outside shooting even more ! That's what Miami did in 2nd half to come back, as did Creighton and Texas in the 1st half of yesterday's games !

    i'm going to shock you but i believe you should keep an eye out on schools like FAU, SDSU and Miami.
