Well we are down to the Final Four of what has been a pretty staid tournament. On the very first day it looked like we were going to be in for a wild ride but things stabilized pretty quickly and other than Michigan State representing the East region it all played to form, right?
This is an interesting Final Four from a handicapping perspective. In many respects, it’s a classic case of experience versus youth. Duke’s top four scorers and rebounders: two seniors, two juniors.
Michigan State, on the other hand, got a tough tourney break when it lost star guard Kalin Lucas, the leading scorer and assist man. Of its remaining top players, that leaves Raymar Morgan (junior), Durrell Summers (junior) and a pair of sophomores in Draymond Green and Delvon Roe.
The NCAA Tournament is down to the Final Four. All four teams have won national championships before and look to cut down the nets again. The Big East is represented well with 2 teams and the Big 10 and ACC are each represented by a team. Great guard play will be on display in Detroit while a few potential Hall of Fame coaches will be patrolling the sideline.
