Sb Reacts: All Eyes On The Ncaa Tournament

Though the NBA season is rolling on, a good chunk of the basketball world puts it on the back burner every March to pay attention to the NCAA Tournament. And there are plenty of bets to be made for both leagues if that’s your thing.

This week at Mavs Moneyball, I kept the survey simple. First, I wanted to know how many of you planned to watch the tournament.

Nearly 8 in 1o of yall indicated you would be watching at least some of the games. If that’s the case, I hope you saw all of our coverage the last several weeks on potential Dallas draft picks.

The second question asked if you were watching if there was a specific position type you would focus on.

It seems everyone watching wants the Mavericks to find a guard for next season. I happen to agree but would take literally any player.

The next graphic and answer comes from the national poll. It’s about MVP.

I am starting to think that Spurs fans dominate the national poll. Y’all need to sign up and participate more. Luka not being a voting option really tells you how people feel about him this year.

The next question was Rookie of the Year centric.

Knueppel with a commanding lead in this vote and I think that’s how it comes down when NBA voters get their chance. The Hornets are a feel-good story and the Mavericks are very bad, no matter how good Cooper Flagg is. That’s something Kon will get to take advantage of.

This last one is about Coach of the Year.

Bickerstaff makes sense, the Pistons have outperformed. If Detroit can hold on with Cade Cunningham likely missing a few weeks with his collapsed lung, then he absolutely locks up the award. Charles Lee needs to get more love here though, as does Mazzula, as each coach has done a very good job this season.
