Burke would catch the ball and wait for Hack Attack Craft to come and beat on him.

Hardaway just jacks shots. Sometimes they fall, sometimes they don't. The only thing you can really do is stop him from getting open ones and hope he goes cold. Burke, on the other hand, does pretty much everything for that team. He creates their entire offense. In my mind, if there was a MVP award in college basketball, he might be right at the top of it (Withey would be there too). If MU didn't have Burke and KU didn't have Withey, they would struggle to be top 20.

I'm sure Burke will make us look pretty stupid at times, but I thong Withey can offset some of that if he stays out of foul trouble. Hardaway is the one I'm worried about. Dude has ice in his veins and it seems like he never ever misses.

Withey's defense will be the most important part of the game...as it usually is for this team. If there's a team that can limit Burke's slashing and shot creation, it's this version of KU I think.

I'm excited, but Michigan is uber talented and if they hadn't had a few dumbass attacks through the year should have been #1 overall. We are going to have to come out swinging. And McLemore needs to find his game. Like yesterday.

When you're dealing with teams this good at this stage of the tournament, the games are pretty close to 50/50 (although some are lucky enough to play teams like FGCU and La Salle).
As for McLemore, they should be able to get shots for McLemore against Michigan's D, He just needs to start making them like he can and I don't see any reason he wouldn't.
