Exclusive 2022 March Madness thread

Wendell Moore Jr. is Gary Trent (Lite).

 

PAOLO has the smallest leap to make.

doesn’t even need the outside shot really

 

I like Banchero

 

I dont question Paolo's motor. Moreso his defense. And i feel like Smith's biggest weakness is his handle.

Banchero's comp for me remains is still Mike Beasley... Or a souped up Julius Randle.

 

Houston Kyler Edwards… looks like Klay Thompson out there lol

 

I get the line of thinking, but IMO, it's more likely that Timme becomes a super reliable bench player than Chet getting strong enough to bang with 5's or quick enough to hang with 4's. I'm not saying I would be bold enough to draft Timme over Chet, but I don't think Chet is worth a lottery pick, either.

It seems like Timme's "lack of length" concerns are no different than lil' Sabonis', and it worked out okay for him. Post skills and hustle go a long way.

 

I do question Paolo's motor/effort/mental activity as the reason for his lacking defense. His offensive footwork shows he has the physical skills be be a good defender. Your comps are pretty good!

Agree Smith doesn't dribble well, which is why I said his playmaking was a concern.

 

I think there is a major difference between Timme and Sabonis, but I guess time will tell. If Timme is a starter in the NBA, let alone an all-star, like Sabonis was, I'll gladly eat crow.

 

Down goes another number 1

 

Few and Lloyd, #1 and #2 overall seeds, going home early.

 

My bracket is killing it! I'm in first still at work. Nailed the Arkansas upset. If Carolina beats UCLA tomorrow, I'll have it wrapped up before we even get to the Elite 8 FAMS!

 

Maybe I should create a show online to talk about basketball.

 

Looks like you just based your bracket off who would’ve won in 1993, which was the last time you watched a college game

 

Tube Trippin with Big John sure to be a smash hit.

 

i don't think paolo's desire or mental makeup is the problem as much as he doesn't really know how to use his size and athleticism yet. i think that will come along in a yr or two.

 

I watched the final game that year on the big screen at Crisler Arena with my fellow Michigan students. Devastating game. We rally, have a chance to win and then Webber calls the timeout.

 

Overperforming would be doing better than 50% of one seeds.

 

Yeah i always kind of think after the sweet 16 it's a crap shoot? Those 8 games are always tough to win. Seeding essentially goes out the window. If the team is playing a elite 8 game they are playing a team that can beat them. It's why we call it March Madness.
