    When I watch the IU Hoosiers, Olidipo often is the stand out that I love to watch, even with Zeller on the team. He is such a mobile and athletic guy who plays hard defense every game. If Houston gets him, it will be heavenly and Harden can get some more rest.

    In the latest draftexpress update, Oladipo moved up from #28 to #21 in first round mock draft.

    Going to be interesting Saturday night, Michigan at IU. Oladipo will be playing against some really good guards. Big test for both teams.

    Oladipo plays great when he plays big games. I expect him to put make it hard for Burke or hardaway.. I wanna see him guard hardaway. I got Michigan winning because of their whole team. Burke >> hulls. And cliff Robinson 3? Not bad

    I think Indiana is deeper and a little more well rounded. I also believe IU has made a concious effort to start getting Zeller more touches and have asked him to be more aggressive. Indiana seems to have finally started to find their identity. Believe it or not, I think a lot of their wins early were driven strictly by their talent level. This team has not played consistently on the level that they're capable of but, are starting to play scary good IMO. So, of course I'll take the Hoosiers.

    I hope IU beats them tomorrow but Michigan is so talented it's gonna be tough. Michigan is my pick to go all the way.

    I agree it'll be a tough game. I'm leaning toward IU because it's at home. Michigan and IU will run and I've yet to see a team that can run with IU. So far, from what I've seen, the way to beat Indiana is to out physical them, slow the tempo keeping them from finding a rhythm. Should be a good one. I believe this game is going to go far in making both teams better.

    Michigan reminds me of the Rockets they are one dimensional on offense...If they hit their shots they can blow you out if they miss some you can get them...

    Michigan actually plays defense.. They grind out wins from out of no where.

    Great start for IU. Whole team looking good.

    Burke looks great early.

    I really think Oladipo can be special on the next level.

    He's definitely not a headcase.

    no way like westbrook. the dude seems down to earth...

    And although i'm biased towards oladipo as he is my favorite college ball player and maybe even in the next level..

    I think he will be a star in the making in the NBA. Big games, he plays like a star.

    Turnovers killing IU.

    Burke is a stud.
