In a deep draft like the one yesterday almost every team improved, but in my mind there were a few teams who were clear winners and improved themselves more than the rest. In no particular order: New Orleans Hornets: Drafting a pair of 19-year-olds in all-everything power forward Anthony Davis at No. 1 and then [...]

The scene is set for a battle of the beasts in the Big 10 Tournament Championship game.  Thad Matta’s Ohio State Buckeyes will take on the Spartans of Michigan State who are coached by the one and only Tom Izzo.  OSU’s Jared Sullinger and MSU’s Draymond Green have both been dominant, but something has to [...]

The Buckeyes [...]
