After yesterday, some Wisconsin thoughts.
The win oddly didn’t change things a that much beyond A. Being a nice chip for seeding, B. Being a tossup game UW won, C. Calming people down
UW still has five or realistically should win, which would get to 17 wins, and needs one or more of MD at home, at NW, at Minny. KenPom now has UW a slight favorite at OSU and a tossup underdog at IU. Win three of five and it’s 20 wins.
Three long shots remain MSU at home, at NU, at Mich. KenPom projects UW to finish fifth at 12-8 in league.
Also, it appears Kobe King has surpassed Iverson in playing when it matters. It strikes me this is mostly that Iverson doing nothing involves lurking in the dunker spot, mishandling passes and getting caught under the rim. And King spaces better.
