Hield, Paige, and Valentine will be fun to watch and cheer for, so I will probably do the same. I haven't watch 'nova this year, but I generally don't pick them to go deep.

i want duke to go far on the shoulders of brandon ingram (and still ultimately lose), mannnnn if the celtics got him with that brooklyn nets pick

hield and jaylen brown also intrigue me for sure
What do you like about Jaylen? His game seems really unrefined to me.

i think his speed/ball-handling/driving to the basket are all really good, def needs a better shot (which can be developed)

tbf though he is probably considered top 5 bc this is presumed to be a meh draft
the Hawaii upset seems to be a favorite this year

People always pick against Cal in the first round but they usually lose in the second round in my experience

I've not watched Oregon play, but it's difficult to believe they are very good

you can rarely go wrong disrespecting the pac-12 imo
― mookieproof, Tuesday, 15 March 2016 18:37 (eight years ago) link
I bought an $8 ticket to the pac-12 tourney at the staples center several years ago and caught this barn burner between UCLA and USC. Don't think I've put the pac-12 in the third round since.

college ball is the worst why can't these people shoot
― ciderpress, Tuesday, 15 March 2016 20:11 (eight years ago) link
hopefully the rise of curry/durant brings the importance of shooting back to the youngsters.
― Spottie, Tuesday, 15 March 2016 20:13 (eight years ago) link
yeah when i was growing up they only ever taught me pick&roll, post play and rebounding, outside shooting was not important. i guess these current guys still grew up before the 3-point era really got rolling
― ciderpress, Tuesday, 15 March 2016 20:17 (eight years ago) link
speaking of shooting: Florida Gulf Coast is 4-of-15 on free throws in the first half...

they'll probably win this game by 20
King Joffrey will lead them to victory

don't have a college team just generally cheer for the lower seed and/or a good game. i usually never go for any of the big programs.

dont have a college team, i watch march radness as nba draft pick watch p much. if a team i'm watching in a given game plays pace-and-space and rather than fundamental-ass grindy/post- or jumper-heavy play, i will go for the former always

also follow spottie's underdog sympathy rule a fair amount

yeah, i don't even fill out a bracket anymore because it interferes with my desire to root for underdogs
― mookieproof, Thursday, 17 March 2016 18:19 (eight years ago) link
i just pick all underdogs then i can cheer for them and forget about it after the opening weekend
