All March Madness Team

PG: Sean Singletary VA. Granted he only played in two games but while he was there he put up great numbers. Averaging 21 Points to go along with an amazing 7 assist to 3 turnovers ratio. He also put up 6 rebounds in each game, which for a point guard is amazing.
SG: Ron Lewis OSU. He has been lights-out this march shooting 52% and leading all 4-game scorers with 22 points, 10 points per game more than he had during the regular season. He has not missed one single free throw all tournament, to go along with an averaging 5 boards a game. All of those numbers are great and his team is in the final four due to that crucial shot versus Xavier.
SF: Kevin Durant TX. Although Durants first and possibly only trip to march madness ended early this year, no one can put the blame on the big man averaging 29 points per game to go along with 9 rebounds. He also shot 88% from the free throw line, and was the single reason why Texas was even in the tournament let alone advanced one round.
PF: Tyler Hansbrough UNC. I hate to do it, but the dumb white fuck, has been phenomenal. He has been averaging over 21 points a game to go along with 9 rebounds, and has been shooting great from the line with a 81% for a PF-C. He has also been averaging more than 2.5 blocks a game.
C: Roy Hibbert GT. Not only because I love him but because he has helped push Georgetown into the final four as much as Jeff Green himself. He is leading the tournament in total and average blocks and rebounds, which considering he plays center guarantees himself a spot on this team. But its not to say he only can play on the defensive side of the ball, he is shooting 54% from the field to go along with his not-so-shabby 13 points a game.

This was essentially my first post, so I hope the formatting is OK

You're wrong about Hansborough. Wright has clearly outplayed him this postseason. He single-handedly took over the USC game in the second half. And yes Lewis is a straight up G and hit one of the clutchest threes ever but no he shouldn't get the nod over Afflalo. UCLA has been playing the best ball of any team this tournament and Afflalo has been their most consistent performer. And I hella like the singletary pick over Conley. Conley's been good, even taking over the overtime game vs Xavier. But he has been contributing only points and free throws, not the assists and rebounds Singletary stacked up.

I disagree with abriendobitches thoughts on Afflalo. He's been good, despite a bad first game, but Lewis has been so unbelievably clutch. Not only did he hit that shot against Xavier, but he ptu up 18 points in the second half against Tennessee.
Two things I don't really like are doing this before the tournament's even over, and including guys who only played in two games, despite the fact that they put up big numbers.
Still, the best individual performance goes to Tajuan Porter, by a long shot.

Tajuan Porter???!!! We are talking about just one game right? otherwise I disagree cause his tournament couldn't have ended on a worse note.

I totally agree he had the best one game but his tourney wasn't that great. Also RJ, you must be crazy afflalo's been great but all the stats and everything that lewis has done, he hasn't fucking missed a free throw, that is so crucial. Also I hate Hansbrough also but especially if you take out his horrible performance against USC a game they won by 10 so it wasn't a huge deal, his stats would be ridiculous. And mike i agree about it being too soon, but i wanted to get it out there, and im gonna make edits when it is all done.

harrison, I already told you. there's a meter attached to this blog that shows not only how many people look at it, but where those people are from. no one in the past like, 100 visitors has been from either LA or Detroit. so, keep trying "anonymous".
