Final Four Record
(1-1)
Duke Vs Wisconsin
Well now that my
bracket is all the way busted let’s talk about this upcoming National
Championship! Truth be told I’m kind of surprised this is where we are at,
Wisconsin are usually a bunch of choke artist’s before they can get to this point
and I personally did not believe Duke was really that impressive when the
tournament began. But both of these teams by far have been the most impressive
and absolutely deserve to be in this spot. Both teams can dominate on both
sides of the ball, have super star players who can take over the game and are
led by great coaches. These teams matchup very well on paper and this should be
a close game, but the one spot I believe Duke has the edge over Wisconsin in
this matchup is with Jahlil Okafor. He has been ballin’ so hard this season,
but has really stepped it up in the tournament. I’ve been impressed with
everything he has accomplished this tournament. He can dominate in the paint
and I believe that is what will happen against Wisconsin. The Badgers are strong
in the paint as well, but overall Okafor is a far superior player than the majority
of what Wisconsin is bringing to the table. With Okafor grabbing boards he will
command a double team which will open up shots for the rest of his teammates and
it will be too much for Wisconsin to overcome. I really can’t pick against
Coach K in this instance either, he’s one of the greatest coaches of all time
and he has his team focused and ready to win.
Duke over Wisconsin 78-70
MOP Award: Jahlil Okafor
