Message: [QUOTE="Flyinsouth, post: 3506830, member: 9797"] I would pick Oregon due to skill and experience. Their big 3 just won 3 of the 5 starting positions on the Hoophall Hall of Fame team with Ionescu winning her 3rd consecutive Lieberman Point Guard of the year award (Sabrina was also the unanimous Player of the Year) and Ruthy winning her 2nd Katrina McClain award for the top power forward and Satou winning her first Cheryl Miller award for top small forward. With their improved D (only allowing 1 team in their last 19 games to score even 70, #13 Arizona in an 18 point Duck win) lead by Minyon's tenacious D. They had added depth as Satou's 6'5" sister Nyara (former 2 time FIBA U18 Euro Tourney MVP for her german team) was gearing up to play in the NCAA's. I couple their experience with South Carolina's youth eventually either hitting a wall or feeling the pressure of the moment, I have Oregon winning their first title! [/QUOTE]
