Both games are going to be good. I'm very interested in this UCLA - Memphis game. This is the first time in 3 years that I haven't picked Memphis to go to the Final and now they might do it. I do have them in the final 4 though. My final 4 is almost perfect with the exception of Georgetown, I had them beating Kansas, didn't foresee Davidson beating Georgetown of all teams.
UCLA is for certain the more well rounded team but in college a good backcourt is always better then a good frontcourt. Kevin Love is an animal but he's got to get the ball in order to be effective and in all these close games down the stretch for UCLA, they've gotten away from Love and let Collison and Westbrook handle the ball. That's not all bad because Collison is one of the better point guards in the country but he turns the ball over a lot and Rose and Douglas-Roberts can take advantage of that.
Still, I have a feeling as cocky as Callapari is that he's going to task Dozier with Love and as good as Dozier has been with Memphis having no true center, don't think he can match up with Love and not have Love run all over him.
Very excited about this one. This is the best time of year for sports, the NBA West is about as stacked as one conference has ever been in the entire history of basketball, the NHL has a great race in the East with Ovechkhin tearing it up and possibly facing Crosby in the 1st round of their playoffs and of course the final 4 leave the start of baseball a mere afterthought.
