here are the teams with the best chance of winning the whole thing:
illinois, unc (i would give anything to have these guys lose in the first or second round)
my favorites:
duke, ucla (no chance), arizona (stoudamire is incredible) and georgia tech
maryland will not make the tournament, they might win the nit though.

I agree, they are still a bunch of young kids. Gilchrist was a great player in the last ACC tornement, he did everything, but after the beginning of this season where he started out averaging over 20 points over a number of games, he started to score in the single digits, and sometimes barely in the teens. He needs to pick it up.
Chris McCray i think was in a little slump and picked it up at the end of the season where he started to get 20 point games. He is the best three point threat the Terps have but he did not shoot well from there in the beginning.
And I also think Maryland's frontcourt is pretty small. I like Garrison and Ibekwe, but they need somebody bigger. Garrision is a very good jump shooter for his size, and I like that, but in games he gets into foul trouble.
Caner-Medely i just don't like. Even though he carried the Terps in some games, i just hate his style of play. His mentality is basically look to shoot first and pass last. And he has terrible shot selection.
I relate Caner-Medely to Carmelo Anthony. Melo' is my favorite player, but he is averaging under .410 shooting! he was 4-16 last night! COME ON! But last night was another story, most of his shots were from inside 5 feet, which is the sad part.
Melo! You are my man! You were raised in my hometown, went to the school I almost went to, and put up 34 points against LeBron, and went to a college i like.
