And just for kicks, two great plays for tomorrow

Georgetown -4 at home (look for this team to get to the final four)

SIU +2.5 (currently on Pinnacle) SIU is playing extremely well right now, I think Lowery got into their asses about easing up and it has showed in the last couple games, we have 'finished' teams, or come back on them like we did at Drake, a much improved team. MVC might get 5 teams this year; WSU, Missouri State, SIU are locks, and teams like Creighton, Indiana State, and Northern Iowa have shots with wins over the three locks

Yes indeed very nice ateam. Some good stuff. Jay Bilas is very good but he went Bill Walton on us with his declaration of Durant. The way Durant looks to me, after watching him on 5 different occasions, is way too skinny needs another year in college. He will be torn up trying to defend the pros, and there is no way he could play against the guys Kevin Garnett has to go against every night. He would be ravaged.

The kid from Ohio State is ready for the pros now. All he needs is experience. The body is amazing. This kid is so totally the #1 draft choice it aint even close. Gold mine. Even after the Florida game in which he was totally exhausted and outplayed, its easy to see.

Noah from Florida will also be a good pro because of his amazing mobility and the fact that he has learned the game so quickly. His improvement continues. He will never be a scorer, but his ability to run the floor and defend in help defense, makes him perfect for my San Antonio Spurs who will never get a shot to get him.

Texas is way too young at this point in the season. They can beat any team in the nation on a good day, but they will lose to more than a few nobody teams.

Great day for all the Duke haters, they fall to
the VT Hokies in OT. Plus the refs officiated
an excellent game. They did not favor Duke
this time luck they usually do.

Incredibly happy that Duke lost...but the crap I will have to listen to from all the VaTech fans at work tomorrow has me sick to my stomach already...

Good news is UCLA lost...so guess who will move to #1

They control their own destiny, Offensively I don't think anybody can stop them, but their defense might have to improve somewhat. I see them hosting up an ACC Championship Banner. Hopefully Brandan Wright stays around for a couple more years this kid is a player
