Three close games with three lackluster finishes. Bummer

Michigan State sucks. On paper I'd think Lucas/Allen/Morgan/Suton can matchup well w/ Lawson/Ellington/Green/Hansbrough, but Lawson just owns these guys (15 steals in 2 games?!?) And Michigan St just chucks threes because they can't seem to do anything inside against UNC.

Isaiah Dahlman: you'd be the star for the Gophers right now, but you can't even get off the bench for Izzo

I've known Isaiah Dahlman since he was a baby, it's good to see him get a bucket in the championship game.

it's good? He's a good player that should be a rotation player for any program, and he runs the friggin scout team

As opposed to him not getting off the bench, yes it's good. I assume he'd play if he was good enough. Apparently he's not.

maybe I overrate him, but seems like an all around solid player to me that could be starting for a weaker program or rotation guy at worst for an upper level program. I just think he's at the wrong school; with Suton taking up so many minutes as a weak last line defender, they can't really afford to have Dahlman getting hurt off the dribble, so guys like Walton get those defensive role player minutes even though he's a weak offensive player.

I'd love to have seen Dahlman at UConn. Lord knows they could use a playmaker in the backcourt and Dahlman could press up on his man on the perimeter using his size to take away threes and if they want to try and drive to the basket, more power to them.

I love what Noah is doing for Sister Mary's Women's College for the Blind, though. He's their beastly leading scorer.
