March Madness 2012 Discussion Thread

Mcadoo playing very well for UNC. Might be rising his draft rankings with these kinds of performances. He's currently ranked middle of the second or so I believe

 

Not really.

 

He has actually looked pretty bad so far if you ask me. The only reason why he even has 14 points is because he of his size advantage and the fact that UNC is running their offense through him and Zeller instead of Henson and Zeller like normal. He has played better in the 2nd half than the 1st (where he was awful), though.

 

The only UNC players that have looked good are Marshall and Zeller. Everybody else was average at best.

 

At least in my opinion.

This is what worried me about Missouri before the tournament.

 

They rely so heavily on the 3 point shot, don't get easy baskets inside and aren't a good defensive team. I overlooked it and figured their experience would compensate for these to flaws, but my concerns before hand are looking valid right now.

 

They are the same issues I have with Duke and why I am not a big fan in either of their chances of making a deep run, even if I have Mizzou in the Elite Eight and Duke in the Sweet Sixtenn. Teams like these can beat anybody when their shots are falling, but if they aren't hitting from deep, they are very susceptible to an upset because of their inability to get stops or easy baskets.

Missouri's defense/rebounding blows. Can't believe I have them going so far in my bracket.

 

I think a lot of people feel that way.

 

The only problem was that who could take advantage of that? I don't think anybody expected them to lose to Norfolk St and Florida plays the exact same way (4 guards, 1 big, live or die by the 3) as they do, so even though their faults were obvious to everybody, they didn't look like they would an issue until the Sweet Sixteen based on the bracket they were in.
