9-4  this week  1 last pick for the road..
 
MEMPHIS TIGERS  pick
 
putting this in now as i cant see the line moving more then a point one way or the other.  certaintly not a big play by any means as you cant go wrong with either team here.  no doubt the two teams that should be here are here.  im more impressed with what memphis has done.  they have not only destroyed texas and ucla, but both those teams are great defensive teams and they pretty much had their way with them.  kansas was dominant against a very weak defensive team in unc, and no i didnt see the ass kicking coming tonight  but when you are terrible defensively you leave that open to happening.  i dont trust rush, he takes a lot of bad shots, and cdr and rose are playing as good as any 2 players could be playing right now. should and hopefully will be a good one but im going with the tigers.  memphis 72  kansas 68

Hey Bad, good run, with you on the Tigers for National Champs, those Memphis guards have too much size and talent, should be a very exciting game to watch.

MEMPHIS is the pick here...UNC played no defense and when they did KU took some bad shots.  MEMPHIS faced a tough UCLA team, but Collison did not show up and could not handle the big guards.  I see MEMPHIS playing the DAVIDSON type of defense, real in your face and where people actually help and play team defense.  Rush is not a big time player and size should be neutralized with Dorsey and Thatcher in the middle.  Look for D. Rose and CDR to get some fast break points and if they continue to knock down their free throws the TIGERS should be cutting the nets.

MEMPHIS 73
KANSAS 68

I agree Bad. Looking at both teams right now, it is clear that Memphis is playing the best ball of any team right now. The length and speed of Memphis is key.

Hey Bad, I think the public is going to be all over KU here. I think if you hang; you get a point rather than laying one????

I see the total at 145.5......... at first glance I thought that might be a little low; but after thinking about it..... probably pretty sharp

my thoughts exactly..........total probably comes down to FT at the end....... man the last two minutes of a bb game with money on total can be excruciating to watch

 the best part is you could have 20 points to spare with 2 minutes left and you know its far from safe

I agree with tailmenow.
That point isn't gonna matter at the end when the fouling starts. This could go either way and anyone who says " I TOLD YOU SO" aftewards gets a  " PLEASE''
 
Hey good luck to all and Badlands. A special god luck to you my friend

Tail..... I agree; I don't think a single point is going to be the difference here either
