Eric Newman is joined by FOX bracketologist and NCAA basketball historian Howie Schwab as he breaks down a strange night in college hoops starting with the Zion Williamson injury and the car accident involving Coach Jim Boeheim.
BJ and Eric talk about the impact of the Bulls losing game 7 of the eastern conference finals in Detroit to the Pistons and what it triggered immediately afterward, which lead to the dawn of the first Chicago Bulls 3-Peat.
BJ and Eric go back to the 90s as BJ shares his thoughts on who Chicago's toughest finals opponent was during their first 3-peat and the task of closing them out to win the NBA title.
Kansas State is one of the best defensive teams but spotty offensively. They stay in games with their defense and have future NBA talent in Dean Wade and Xavier Sneed. Barry Brown is a veteran with over 1,700 points in his career, so K-State is tournament ready.
North Carolina is a scoring machine and plays at a fast pace. With freshman Coby White at the point and fellow freshman Nassir Little coming off the bench, the Tar Heels have the firepower to run up big numbers in the tournament.
Tennessee under coach Rick Barnes has been one of the most athletic teams in the country. They have several NBA prospects as well as leadership and shooting. They pass the ball, play tough defense, and have quality wins under their belt.
Nevada is one of the top teams in the nation out of the Mountain West Conference with a number of non-conference wins against Pac 12 teams and an undefeated non-conference record. They play with intensity but also play loose. They’re balanced and tough.
Virginia has become one of the most efficient offensive teams in the nation. They were already elite defensively. They have experience, talent, and are battle tested. They play at a slow pace, but still have one of the top point differentials in the nation.
Purdue stumbled in its non conference schedule but is ready for a deep tournament run. They are talented and tough. Carsen Edwards is a future NBA talent and they are well balanced at both ends of the floor.
