You are funny. Stanford is a peice of **** team that will get knocked out. Talk about some real team.

Right now in my mind Duke has the best chance.

for moochies sake, ill be nice
i rooted for Duke last year. it didnt happen. instead, they let a fat ass drug addict run the show. whats that about mr.franchize???

[heypartner]

Stanford has zero chance of making the playoffs.

Who are they anyhow, one of those piss ant Eastern Conference teams without a center? Why don't I even have them on my Rockets schedule? Why are we even talking about them? This is a Rockets forum?

[jerinrulz]

we mite want maddog on our team now wont we?
btw... what happend to my boy alfred lee. i want him on our team. he lead stanford to the final four.

Stanford is probably the only school where hardly any of their players will be drafted in the first round even though they have a talented squad. They probably all going to grad school. http://bbs.clutchcity.net/ubb/biggrin.gif

One, you're definitely not going to Stanford with that kind of spelling.

Two, this is the Rockets 2000 forum. Where we talk about the Rockets. College basketball threads can be posted in the BBS Hangout forum. So that's where I'm moving this.

Thanks.

Stanford will be lucky to get as far as they did last year. I believe Ohio State will beat them in the semis, unless Stanford loses earlier. They are completely overrated.

Bring It!!

[jerinrulz]

does anyone know whatever happened to their point guard alfred lee???

[BrianKagy]

Well, I think you're overrating Ohio State. http://bbs.clutchcity.net/ubb/smile.gif And I'm a Buckeye fan, so believe me it pains me to say so. We're gonna have our hands full with Miami, FL in the second round.

As for Stanford, they're a very good team. Their main problem is that their leading scorer is a freshman, Casey Jacobsen. This does not portend well for their chances of making the Final Four. Aside from the Fab Five (d'oh!), it's extremely rare for a freshman-led team to advance to the Final Four.

wasn't it Arthur Lee???... anyhoo, i don't know what he's up to now... i'm not too sure about Stanford winning it all, so my favorites for the tournament are Duke and Arizona.

However I think way to many people are on the Ohio State "badwagon", after all I think they lost to a loser big 10 team early in their turney.

Ah ah ah-- careful now. OSU lost to an Illinois team with a losing record in last year's tourney and ended up in the Final Four. http://bbs.clutchcity.net/ubb/smile.gif

[jerinrulz]

Cant blame them for jumping on the bandwagon though can u? Scoonie Penn and Michael Redd are a great tandem. This is no fluke team.
PS: Neither is Stanford

[jerinrulz]

[jerinrulz]

theyre pretty nice if i do say so myself

[Drag-On 88]

http://bbs.clutchcity.net/ubb/biggrin.gif tru dat http://bbs.clutchcity.net/ubb/biggrin.gif

uconn, duke, cincy, & arizona got some tight ones too

[jerinrulz]

so u think stanfords goin newhere?

[sir scarvajal]

Yeah, BK is was a little bit of a low blow. Though I always, or mostly always, route for Big 10 teams to lose, they get so overhyped just about every year in every sports. I guess most of the national journalists come from there.

Objectively though, OSU and MSU are darned good teams this year. But I like Stanford chances better than OSU, though either team could very easily lose in the sweet 16 (Ciny, Tenn or UConn are all recently underachiving, yet loaded teams with quickness). This is absolutely the hardest bracket to call, IMHO.

Oh, Lee was a pretty good college player, but he absolutely couldn't hang with Bibby or Terry and didn't play so well againt El-Amen either. Most good or even very good 6 ft college guards are bound for the CBA or foreign leagues--as I am sure he is.

Stanford forward/guard Ryan Mendez spent his first 14 years of his life in Katy, Texas.

That means he will win it this year.

Just like UCONN center Jake Voskuhl won it last year. Because he's spent the past 10 years of his life in Katy.

I have watched Stanford plenty. They are not overrated and they are an outstanding team. But I do think they will run into a team with too much individual quickness, and they will be out. The teams that have most easily handled them the last 3 years--UConn, Kentucky & Arizona--have been teams completely loaded with quickness and individual playmaking ability that Stanford just couldn't match up with.

However I think way to many people are on the Ohio State "badwagon", after all I think they lost to a loser big 10 team early in their turney. This is a wide open braket, where I think even UConn or Tenn could come out. Those teams are every bit as dangerous as OSU, it just depends who can snap out of their funk. Cincy might have something to prove as well, it is not like they are scrubs after Martin. This is the toughest bracket to call by far, the top 5 teams are all sort of limping in.

My pick would be Arizona as well if Woods can at least show up by the Sweet 16 (big ? right now). This team has like a 8-2 record against top 25 teams, many of those games without Jefferson and/or Woods. They will be scary if they can ever get all their guys back.

And yes it is "Arthur" Lee. A very good college player who will have his pro career outside of the NBA.

Arthur Lee: u dont think hes good enough for the NBA, and is he still in college?
