Cade Cunningham is Luka Doncic 2.0. Going to easily be a top 50 player in the league as a rookie.

I don't think they can stop Zaga, but they should score pretty easily on the other end. Unfortunately the only way we are going to see them play is in the championship game barring something crazy.

if you just watched GT the past 4 games, you'd think they were already in tourney - not on the bubble. They just got so much better over the season - Moses Wright is a beast. Biggest weakness is depth - they play like 7 guys.

Some model said they were 65% to get in after beating Syracuse today.

Duke historically kills them and that's who is next.

Time for your weekly reminder that you can't really stop Lat Mayen. I mean, you can, but you really can't. You can also contain him, but only do so at your own peril.

Was surprised to hear Roy was the fastest to 900 D1 wins. Would have guessed it was coach K

Obv a huge win for the Heels today. The Marquette beatdown inched us very close to the bubble. Now I really want the Duke regular season sweep

Nice response after FSU had them down early. Big win for the resume.

This is so, so wrong and shows such a lack of awareness of what Luka was before the NBA. It's not like he was beasting in the NCAA ... at 18 he led a pro team to the Euro championship, playing against men, not against boys not good enough to play pro. It's nothing at all the same.

Drake took a bad loss at Bradley yesterday. I see that CBS sports has them in the first four now, ESPN hasn't updated.

Of course, there's always the chance they win the Valley tournament. Will have to reach the final and play well to retain any chance for at-large.

I feel like the bad luck with injuries toward the end of the year, and a return to the mean probably means they're on the outside looking in though.

Cades game reminds me of Luka is all I'm saying. Not comparing beating Oklahoma to beating grown men in Europe, obviously NCAA is much harder to win than those Euro scrubs

Reduced minutes for Bohannon and Wieskamp chucking from 3. Fran might be onto something here.

All 3 of the non-Michigan Big Ten teams are still eligible for the 4th one seed.

That race is really interesting right now with really none of the teams playing well enough to hold on to it. I feel like Villanova and Houston's bad losses disqualify them from getting it. Florida State can jump up there but man the ACC is just so weak top to bottom this year.

If one of the 3 Big Ten teams can win the Big Ten Tournament then they could easily get a 1 seed even with 7 or 8 losses.

I think that if any of the contenders can run the table they'll get it, even if it's a team from a weaker league. Villanova, Houston and FSU all have fewer losses, so if one of them does it and so does a 7 loss team from the B1G I think the committee will shy away from two 1 seeds from the same conference, but who knows. Beating Michigan in the B1G tournament (especially in the case of Illinois if they pull off a double) might be enough.

I think if any of the 3 B10 teams run the table, they will get the 4th #1 seed. Would mean 3 big wins for ILL/OSU and 2 for Iowa. Of non B10 teams, I think WVU is the most likely to get the #1 seed if they win out. At least one win vs Baylor; probably 2.

BIG cannibalization is in play, if Rutgers loses to Nebraska, could end up 7 teams.

I think I’m glad I wasn’t able to watch.

Time for ILP to pop in and admit that he punted off a bunch of money betting on Michigan so that the universe can make sense again.

Meh it's just one bad game. This is still the best Michigan team of all time and the unequivocal best team in the country.
