UCLA vs. Michigan

[johnnyb.]

This is going to be a war of 2 teams with different styles. If you love strategy, and top talent on court and bench this is it!
Michigan wins, we cover. Simple as that. In Wolverine's losses this year, they didn't shoot well which anyone can say in losses but Michigan runs a really impressive offense and its designed to get easy shots all over the court. This is not Alabama with spread em and shoot em style that UCLA basically beat the shit out the Bama players... Michigan is like a professional team that can run offense at you and counter you if you take away the 1st pass. This is high level scoring and then throw in the 7 footer that can shoot anywhere on the court, impossible to stop. If I was a high level recruit, I'd wanna play in this offense.

UCLA will fight but without 2 big men, we probably bow out tonight.

We lose but cover the spread, lean to a very low scoring game. 59-57 or so. I'd be surprised if you if this is a high scoring game.

I think UCLA leads at half. Michigan has gone on too many scoring draughts this year. I think Johnny, Jules and Jaime didn?t have great shooting games last game. Tonight they go off.

I hope you are right but I think UCLA might drop off after so many great offensive games.

Taking ZAGS big in 1st game tonight, they can outscore SC. Besides Mobley no one else is a huge threat.

Congrats to the UCLA bettors and fans. That was tough to watch, as a UM fan. When things started working (like feeding the ball into Dickinson) they became very one dimensional and tried to keep going back to that well and forcing it. The free throw shooting was atrocious again. Wagner played like a Freshman at the end when he hoisted a 3 with like 20 seconds on the clock and the shot clock off. He was cold as shit and should have been playing for the last shot regardless.

Oh well. As bad as they played, they still only lost by 2. That Juzinga kid was incredible. When he turned his ankle, the tide turned back for UM....but once he came back he started hitting every shot he took.

Thanks fellas!

I think what happens is the higher the stakes, the tighter the player and team become. I know I read here some where calling yesterdays games trash but if you look closely every defender was closely guarded because teams keying on tendencies and are well scouted.
This is playoff style basketball but NCAA level. Love it.


HOUSTON will completely take away all of Baylors easy baskets, can they still win if so? I like Houston to win in another very good game.
Zags will win too vs. my Bruins but it will not be easy at all for Gonzaga.

Johnny B,
You got Houston and UCLA tomorrow?
