    What team are you most excited to watch during the NCAA tournament?

    Personally, Im really excited to see Baylor because I feel like if they can develop some chemistry and give the ball to PJIII and Quincy Miller then they will be hard to beat.

    I’m also excited to see Weber State because I wanna see if Damian Lillard is a legit lottery pick because that’s where he is in the latest mock draft.

    UConn and UNC are my two; both have pro style rosters and Barnes/Lamb will be fighting each other to be the first perimeter player selected in June.

    Seton Hall- I think that seniors Pope and Theodore can carry this team on a cinderella-esque run if they are given a shot

    Baylor-Lots of talent.  Can they put it all together?

    Florida and Vanderbilt-ditto

    MSU-You know Izzo and Draymond Green are gonna have these guys ready to win

    Creighton-Haven’t seen McDermott yet

    St. Mary’s-The sharp-shooting Cinderella’s

     Florida- all about guard play and Pat Young is a monster

    Detroit- Got the athletes and heart to make a run 

    Kentucky- This could make or break Teagues draft status

    Baylor- I expect an early exit so I’m not actually excited for them, not built for tourney run. 

    Northwestern- Will they actually make it for the first time ever?? Prob not but my pops would be pumped if they did!! 

    Kansas- Who doesn’t love watching T-Rob on beast mode 

    Murray State- Played with Brandon Garrett a few times in Phoenix so and I’m always pulling for AZ natives.

    Drexel and VCU are two severely underrated teams out of the CAA that should make some noise.

    The Big 3 so to speak out of the MWC are good and fun to watch .

    I dont want this to be all about mid majors but I like Creighton too.

    To throw in a high major team I like Michigan

    definately weber state if they win. I can’t wait to see Lillard play against a strong bcs team. Also Washington as I think a strong tourney run by Wroten could have him in the top half of the lottery.

    I can’t wait to see Memphis play. They haven’t been on TV much, but when I know when they are hot they can beat anyone. I’m eager to see how Barton and Jackson play this time around.

    @Y2G yeah Memphis is another one I wanna see because I’m really shocked that Barton is not in the mock draft he should at least be a first rounder and I think he will prove that in the tourney

    I want to see how Connecticut fairs in the tourney(if they get there that is). They won today, and it’s no secret that the talent is there. Shabbaz Napier has been playing well these past couple games, leading the Huskies with 26 today, and they have good size up front, and have great scorers in Napier and Lamb. They really underwhelmed in the regular season, however a deep run in the Tourney is definatly possible.

    Saint Mary’s is a team that really scares me. They don’t have the greatest pure talent, but when their shots are galling it looks like they can beat just about anybody.

    And Murray St has looked great all season long, and as week as their conference has been, I’m still convinced that their one hell of a good team. They have scorers and defenders, and have good length inside. I don’t know if you can call a one loss team a cinderella or an underdog, but they definatly seem primed to make a run in the tourney.

    The mocks are pretty much garbage until everyone has declared and done their workouts so don’t worry about it. Barton would definitely be a mid-late 1st round pick right now and with a good tourney he could go lottery. I just hope they don’t matched up against someone with height.

     Temple they got the type of team that can make a cinderrella run or lose in the 1st round.

    UConn only cuz I wanna see Lamb and Drummond put it together.

    Baylor I’m extremely excited to watch cuz of Quincy and PJ3.  I can’t wait till next year and hope Deuce Bello develops that dude can dunk with anybody in the country, pro’s included.

    Kentucky- Just cuz I got a feeling Anthony Davis is gonna really tear it up and put together some 20 n 10 games.

    Florida- they got a ton of guards and I wanna see Brad Beal catch fire.  If he can watch out.

    Creighton- Doug McDermott deserves more player of the year consideration this dude is really underrated.

    Iowa State- Fun to watch. Royce White causes a serious matchup problem with his perimeter skills and passing ability. I think the Iowa State’s for real and could make a Sweet 16 run.

    South Florida- Really hope they make it since they’re always a conference bottom dweller and have only made the tournament 2 times ever. Their defense can cause teams fits and I’m curious to see what they can do if given the chance.

    Murray State- They’ve got terrific guards let by Isaiah Canaan but lack a lot of size down low with Aska being their biggest guy at 6’7. I think it all depends on who they’re matched up against. Murray is great in transition and shoots the lights out. On the other hand, they don’t rebound particularly well and can be sometimes inconsistent shooting the ball and don’t play well in the half court. I could see them going to the Sweet 16, maybe even the Elite 8, but I could also see them losing in the first or second round due to their size.

     Kentucky, considering the fact that most of them are youngsters. I wanna see them take it to the National Champ Game, but I doubt it due to the lack of experience. I see an upset against them.

    UNC, best team in America. Some inconsistensies, lack of bench play. Underachieving players (McAdoo). I see Zeller, Barnes and Marshall dominating the tournament, Henson being the defensive stopper. Steam rolling everyone by an average of double digits leading to the finals.
