The Men's Final Four is being held this year in Atlanta. The site is the Georgia Dome. The teams are Louisville vs. Wichita State and Michigan
vs. Syracuse.
Louisville is the only number one seed remaining. They are coming in
without one of their key players, Kevin Ware. Ware, a sophomore and
team sixth man, suffered a devastating injury in the Elite Eight game
against Duke. The Cardinal's ball pressure will suffer slightly because of his
absence.Peyton Silva will have to avoid early foul trouble. Russ Smith
is the leader and will set the tone for the game.
Wichita State will dominant the glass.Carl Hall must have a good game
and score inside. Wichita State must limit turnovers and withstand the
opening out pour of emotions that will erupt for Ware.Michigan has the most talent of the remaining teams. Trey Burke, Tim
Hardaway Jr. and Glenn Robinson III are potential pro prospects.Mitch
Mcgary must hit the mid range foul line jumper and go to the hole to
give the Wolverines a balance attack.
Syracuse's vaunted zone defense will give Michigan some problems. They
will keep the game low scoring early and only run off long rebounds or turnovers. Syracuse's Achilles heal is the lack of a proficient scorer. They
shoot better in transition than set up offense. Michael Carter - Williams
and Brandon Triche are better suited in the up tempo game.
I will give my picks prior to the games. So follow me on Twitter.
