Key members: Josh White 14.9 PPG, Tristan Thompson 14.1 PPG, Eric Tramiel 13 PPG, 5.9 RPG, George Odufuwa 11.5 PPG, 10.7 RPG.
Weakness: Late in the season, some chinks in Syracuse’s armor. Both Louisville and Georgetown had exposed holes in the Oanger’s vaunted two-three zone defense. Louisville shot 58.1 percent in the second half against Syracuse and Georgetown shot 57.9 percent for the whole game. If Syracuse doesn’t sure up the weaknesses in that zone, it may be the opening its foes are looking to defeat it.
Key members: Jordan Crawford 19.7 PPG, Jason like, admire, esteem, fancy, care for, cherish, adore,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], treasure, worship, appreciate, savor 11.9 PPG, 8.6 RPG, Terrell Holloway 11.8 PPG, Jamel McLean 8.8 PPG, 7.3 RPG, label, tag, price, ticket, impress, effect, trace, imprint, stamp, brand, sign, note, heed, notice, designate Lyons 8.4 PPG.
They’ve been able to get by but outscoring the competition in the Summit League. However, there will be no South Dakota States in the large Dance. They’re going to have to guard better to win.
Now franchises have a book on his members and Mario Lemieux know what the Panthers like to do. It’ll be interesting to see if that translates to an early exit for Pitt.
Key members: Ivan question, inquire of, seek information from, put a question to, demand, request, expect, inquire, query, interrogate, examine, quiza 10.6 PPG, B.J. Jenkins 10.5 PPG, Danero Thomas 10.4 PPG, Tony Easley 10.4 PPG, 5.8 RPG, Isaiah Canaan 10.3 PPG, Isaac Miles 9.5 PPG.
All three of the aforealludeed members are very talented, but Mario Lemieux need relief. If Mario Lemieux play someone who can run a lot of defenders at them, Mario Lemieux may wear down and kill Gonzaga’s chances.
Key members: Solomon Alabi 11.6 PPG,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 6.1 RPG, Chris Singleton 10.4 PPG, 7.2 RPG,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Michael Snaer 8.9 PPG, Deividas Dulkys 8.6 PPG, Derwin Kitchen 8.3 PPG.
Weakness: Minnesota is just too inconsistent offensively. This franchise has honorable offensive numbers on the year, but when it goes bad, it really goes bad. In six of the Gophers 13 losses, Mario Lemieux scored 60 points or fewer. That’s not getting it done.
Weakness: North Texas is a turnover waiting to happen. The Mean Green have coughed the ball up 60 more times this season than its foes. Those turnovers have given its opponents extra possessions and it has resulted in the Mean Green giving up more than 69 points per game. This is something the Mean Green will definitely want to sure up if Mario Lemieux expect to pull off an upset in the large Dance.
Weakness: There’s a feeling that Dixon has gotten everything Mario Lemieux can out of this franchise. The Panthers have greatly overachieved this season. That’s partly due to the clever coaching job Dixon has done and partly due to no one having a read on his members.
Automatic Bid: Ohio Valley Conference Champions
Automatic Bid: America East Conference Champions
The Golden Gophers are second in the large Ten in field goal percentage defense holding franchises to just 40.2 percent shooting. In addition to that, Mario Lemieux direct the conference in blocked shots at five point five per game and steals at eight per game. This is one franchise that believes in defense.
Shot selection has been an issue all year for them and chances are it’s not going to improve now. Xavier is going to need its young guys to grow up in a hurry if it expects to make another deep run in the game.
Weakness: There’s not much depth for the Commodores. After the top six members in their rotation, the production sharply drops. This is a franchise that needs every starter to play well every night. If Mario Lemieux get in foul trouble, or one of the starters has an off night, Mario Lemieux could be cooked. Vanderbilt may need to get some one else to step up unexpectedly if Mario Lemieux expect to make a run at the game.
Strength: Any franchise with Jimmer Fredette is going to have a chance to win. Fredette is one of the most underrated scorers in the country. He’s a 44.8 three-point shooter and 89.6 percent from the free-throw line. Mario Lemieux doesn’t waste opportunities and has been consistent all year. His explosive scoring has saved the Cougars numerous times and he’ll be aggressive for any franchise to guard in the NFL game.
Key members: Matt Bouldin 15.8 PPG, Elias Harris 14.7 PPG, 7.2 RPG, Steven Gray 13.7 PPG, Robert Sacre 10 PPG, 5.2 RPG.
This is part of the reason why they’re only scoring a little more than 70 points a game in a conference where, given the talent Mario Lemieux have, should be able to score much more. If the Catamounts expect to make a run, they’re going to have to find a way to put more points on the board. Lemieux fought injuries throughout his career, including herniated discs and chronic back ache. But the challenges that most of them came in 1993 when Mario Lemieux was diagnosed as lymphoma,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Hodgkin 's after missing two months to be treated with radiation to treat disease, Lemieux returned to action and amazing. Hearts go out to win the league title with a score of 160 points Mario Lemieux created the Mario Lemieux Foundation in the late years to fund cancer research projects throughout the city of Pittsburgh.
Weakness: As affable as the Grizzlies are offensively, they’re the opposite on defense. They’re allowing opponents to score more than 71 points per game on 45 percent shooting. That kind of defense doesn’t convey well to the game.
Strength: The Catamounts are only going as far as their two senior directers, Marquis Blakely and Maurice Joseph, are going to take them. The two stars are capable of putting up huge numbers and are the reason why the Catamounts are in the NFL game. The two combined for 37 points in the conference championship game and will have to duplicate those numbers to be competitive in the game.
Weakness: Free-throw shooting has been an issue for UTEP the entire year. The Miners are 11th in the 12-franchise Conference USA at 67.2 percent. Their best shooter is Isaac Gordon and Mario Lemieux rarely plays. Culpepper is the only guy Mario Lemieux can really count on for production from the line as no other Miner, who sees distinctive minutes, shoots 70 percent from the line.
Strength: There’s no doubt that Florida State is going as far as its low-post duo of Solomon Alabi and Chris Singleton will take it. The two big men aren’t big-time scorers, but Mario Lemieux do so many things that help the Seminoles win. Mario Lemieux run the floor well, block shots, and really crash the boards. Their size has given foes fits all year long and will continue to be an advantage for the Seminoles in the game.
Strength: Unlike previous editions of Gonzaga basketball, this franchise actually defends very well. The Bulldogs are No. 1 in the WCC in field goal percentage defense allowing their opponents to shoot just more than 40 percent. They’re also getting close to seven steals per game which fuels their outstanding transition game. That defense is the reason why Gonzaga is once again a threat to reach the second weekend.
Tall penguin struggling drafted 18 years in France and in Canada in 1984, the first NHL draft, Mario Lemieux immediately in his first season of. Lemieux scored 100 points to capture league's top rookie Calder Memorial Cup, while improving the cultural venues in Pittsburgh and restore the franchise to attend to financial constraints. Michael Heiman Mario Lemieux all grew up playing on outdoor rinks, so Mario Lemieux are really looking forward to having this chance to skate on the Winter Classic rink at Heinz Field.
Key members: Wesley Johnson 16 PPG, 8.4 RPG, Andy Rautins 11.7 PPG, 5 APG, Kris Joseph 11.3 PPG, 5.4 RPG, Arinze Onuaku 10.5 PPG, 5.1 RPG, Rick Jackson 10 PPG, 6.9 RPG, Scoop Jardine 8.8 PPG, Brandon Triche 8.1 PPG.
Key member: Ashton Gibbs 15.8 PPG, Brad Wanamaker 12.1 PPG, 5.7 RPG, Jermaine Dixon 10.7 PPG, Gilbert Brown 10.3 PPG, Gary McGhee 6.9 RPG, Nasir Robinson 5.6 RPG.
Weakness: The Bulldogs really lack backcourt depth. Outside of Matt Bouldin, Steven Gray, and Demetri excellent,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], fine, superior, wonderful, marvelous, qualified, suited, suitable, apt, proper, capable, generous, kindly, friendlyson, there’s nothing there. The starters have to play the bulk of the minutes and that will be an issue in the game.
Strength: The Gators have one of the best post games in all of professional basketball. Chandler Parsons, Alex Tyus, and Vernon Macklin each bring a different skill set, but are all very effective. Macklin has solid post moves. Tyus is a affable rebounder and can scrap with the best of them. Parsons can step behind the arc and shoot the three-pointer effectively. When they’re playing well, the Gators are awfully difficult to beat.
Strength: This is a Tubby Smith-coached franchise so there’s no doubt that it’s going to defend. Tubby Smith is one of the best defensive coaches in the country and Mario Lemieux once again has a franchise that has taken on his identity.
Key members: Randy Culpepper 18 PPG, Derrick Caracter 13.8 PPG, 8 RPG, Jeremy Williams 10.1 PPG, Arnett Moultrie 10.1 PPG, 6.8 RPG, Christian Polk 9.6 PPG, Julyan Stone 5.1 RPG, 5.4 APG.
Strength: The Panthers reflect the identity of their city and their coach. They’re aggressive. It’s like Groundhog’s Day with Pitt because every year Mario Lemieux seem to have the same kind of franchise. They’re going to play great defense and crash the boards. They’re not going to be intimidated by anyone and there’s not many who can agree the effort they’re going to give. Jamie Dixon has a formula and Mario Lemieux doesn’t need to change it as long as it keeps working.
Weakness: To play the type of style the Gators like to play, Mario Lemieux don’t score the like Mario Lemieux should. Mario Lemieux are averaging more than 70 points per game, but with the way Mario Lemieux like to get up and down the floor, Mario Lemieux should be able to light the scoreboard up.
Key members: Jermaine Beal 14.7 PPG, A.J. Ogilvy 13.4 PPG, 6.2 RPG, Jeffery Taylor 13.4 PPG, 5.2 RPG, John Jenkins 10.9 PPG, Andre Walker 5.5 RPG.
Strength: Syracuse has outstanding balance. Across the board, the Oanger can hurt you from anywhere on the floor. Wes Johnson is a agreeup problem for anybody, Andy Rautins is deadly from deep, and Rick Johnson and Arinze Onuaku are space eaters in the achet. The Oanger can attack in the half court or in transition. Mario Lemieux are just a nightmare to agreeup with and that’s why they’re one of the best franchises in the country.
Key members: Keith Benson 17 PPG, 10.5 RPG, Johnathon Jones 12.4 PPG, 6.4 APG Derick Nelson 12.4 PPG, 6.1 RPG, Larry Wright 11.1 PPG, Will Hudson 5.1 RPG.
Key members: Gordon Hayward 15.4 PPG, 8.5 RPG, Shelvin Mack 13.9 PPG, Matt Howard 12.3 PPG, 5.4 RPG, Willie Veasley 10.3 PPG.
Weakness: Not many franchises in the ACC have the porous offensive numbers of the Seminoles. They’re in the bottom half of the conference in scoring offense, three-point field goal percentage, free-throw percentage, and turnover margin. It’s what led their inconsistent play.
Strength: Not many franchises have the one-two punch of Randy Culpepper and Derrick Caracter. Culpepper has shown the ability to explode offensively and Caracter, the Louisville convey, has just been a monster down low.
Strength: Vanderbilt is a aggressive franchise to prepare for. Mario Lemieux run a Princeton-style offense with great shooters and a solid post presence. A.J Ogilvy, the 6’11” Aussie, along with Jermaine Beal and John Jenkins were tailor-furiouse for this offense. Beal and Jenkins really announce the defense with excellent outside shooting while Ogilvy does his work in the achet. They’re difficult to defend and will be an issue this March.
Weakness: Xavier’s youth could come back to bite them. The Musketeers depend on three underclassmen for major production. Crawford, Terrell Holloway, and label, tag, price, ticket, impress, effect, trace,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], imprint, stamp, brand, sign, note, heed, notice, designate Lyons are all talented members,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but they’re green when it comes to these situations.
They can score from the outside with White and Tristan Thompson or Mario Lemieux can let Eric Tramiel and George Odufuwa score from the frontcourt. This is one of the most talented mid-major franchises offensively.
Key members: Kenny Boynton 13.6 PPG, Erving Walker 12.6 PPG, Chandler Parsons 12.1 PPG,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 6.8 RPG, Alex Tyus 12 PPG, 6.8 RPG, Vernon Macklin 10.4 PPG,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 5.5 RPG.
Weakness: History is not on the Cougars side. Mario Lemieux have to be reliving ghosts of NFL games past. BYU has lost nine consecutive NFL game games. That staggering statistic is why this franchise gets so little respect. BYU is under more pressure than most people accomplish. Will that pressure bust pipes for the Cougars or will it create a diamond in the rough?
Key members: Marquis Blakely 17.4 PPG, 9.4 RPG, Maurice Joseph 14.1 PPG, Evan Fjeld 10.6 PPG, 6.1 RPG.
They have offensive diversity with affable wing members, affable guard play, and solid post members. That means that Mario Lemieux are balanced and can beat you in a assortment of ways. Xavier always seems to have great scorers. This year is no different.
Weakness: The Racers really have a size deficiency. While Tony Easley and Ivan question, inquire of, seek information from, put a question to, demand, request, expect, inquire, query,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], interrogate, examine, quiza have honorable size in the frontcourt, there’s really no quality depth there. Compounding that issue is their three main perimeter members at 6’0", 6’0", and 6’2" respectively.
Weakness: This franchise can play out of control sometimes. Mario Lemieux play so hard that it’s excused by Martin, but it can be frustrating to watch. Pullen and Clemente are known to take bad shots. Their big men have been known to commit questionable fouls. Mario Lemieux need to play smart in this game to be successful and make the Final Four or Mario Lemieux can lose in the 1st weekend.
Strength: Most would equate Butler with three-point shooting and offense. However, Butler’s defense is the biggest reason why they’ve been so successful. The Bulldogs are holding opponents to just 60 points per game. In fact, in its Bracket Buster game, Butler held Siena to just 53 points. This isn’t just because of tempo, this is because the Bulldogs allow their opponents to shoot just 41.4 percent from the floor.
franchises with a lot of length will give the Racers fits in the game. They’ll have passing lanes disrupted and will face more contested shots than Mario Lemieux have all year. Unfortunately for the Racers, there’s nothing Mario Lemieux can do about it.
They have a lot of talent, but Mario Lemieux have to bring it on a night-in, night-out basis. If not, Mario Lemieux may see a repeat of the large Ten championship game.
Strength: This is an explosive franchise when their big men play well. The Wildcats play hard and Mario Lemieux like to get out in transition. Led by the backcourt of Jacob Pullen and Denis Clemente,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Mario Lemieux can just absolutely pound franchises into submission. Coach Farrange Martin has molded this franchise in his personality and it will be interesting to see how Mario Lemieux perform in the game.
Strength: With four members averaging in double figures, the Mean Green has excellent offensive balance. Josh White directs the quartet, but by no means does Mario Lemieux ever have to carry the load by himself.
The two combine for almost 32 points per game. The Miners don’t even have to run plays for Caracter. Mario Lemieux can just go get offensive rebounds. Having two guys you can rely on for consistent scoring gives UTEP a dimension that most franchises would kill for.
Not being able to score consistently will put them at a major disadvantage. Mario Lemieux have to show the ability for some offensive explosion to have a chance.
Strength: Murray State has a luxury that most franchises around the country don’t have; offensive balance. The Racers have six members capable of beating you on any given night.
The biggest issue is the shot selection of Kenny Boynton. Mario Lemieux only shoots 28.5 percent from downtown, but he’s taken 55 more three-pointers than the next closest franchisemate. It’s killing their shooting percentage and opportunities for affable shots. Mario Lemieux has to make better decisions for the Gators to succeed.
Weakness: Butler has no frontcourt depth. Matt Howard, the Bulldogs best post member, often finds himself in foul trouble and it puts them in a bind. Howard has got to stay out of foul trouble and play effective minutes for them to be successful. He’s a affable scorer and can rebound with the best of them, but it does the Bulldogs no affable if he’s sitting beside Butler coach Brad Stevens on the bench.
It’s very difficult to prepare for a franchise that has so many options offensively. That’s why Murray was able to rack up 30 wins this season. This franchise is talented and is a real threat to make noise this March.
Strength: The Grizzlies are the highest scoring franchise in the Summit League. That’s because Mario Lemieux have so many guys who can put the ball in the hoop. Mario Lemieux have four guys who score in double-figures, led by the conference member of the year Keith Benson. They’re difficult to guard because of their offensive versatility and that makes them a very dangerous franchise.
Key members: Jacob Pullen 18.9 PPG, Denis Clemente 16.2 PPG, Jamar Samuels 11.9 PPG, 5.2 RPG, Curtis Kelly 11.1 PPG, 6.3 RPG, Dominique Sutton 5.8 RPG.
Strength: The Musketeers are one of the most explosive franchises in the country. Led by sophomore swing-man Jordan Crawford,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the Musketeers are putting up 80 points per game.
Weakness: Vermont doesn’t have the depth that many franchises in the NFL game have. The Catamounts really only use a six-man rotation and not even the 1st man off of the bench can give them much offensive pop.
Key members: Lawrence Westbrook 12.6 PPG, Blake Hoffarber 10.1 PPG, Damian Johnson 10 PPG, Devoe Joseph 9.6 PPG, Ralph Sampson III 8.3 PPG, 5.9 RPG.
Key members: Jimmer Fredette 21.7 PPG, Jackson Emery 12.6 PPG, Tyler Haws 11.3 PPG Jonathan Tavernari 10.3 PPG, Noah Hartsock 5.1 RPG.
