As I watch the NCAA tournament, I watch through a number of different eyes:
- I watch through the eyes of a bracket owner (though that's been busted for a long time now so I don't look through those eyes for long).
- I watch through the eyes of a fan of the tournament and everything that makes it great.
- I watch through the eyes of a Sixers fan. Knowing that in a few months we'll be talking about a new season with a new franchise player.
And I think that's how we have to view these players as they enter the draft. No, the tournament isn't the end all be all of how a player will be in the NBA, but if a player really steps it up or shuts it down, it can be a telling sign.
