April 1, 2023 – NCAA Final Four

(1) Florida State (29-6) vs (2) Oregon (33-4)

TEAM: FSU|ORE
OVR: 95|95
OFF: 94|96
DEF: 94|92
SHT: 95|100
REB: 96|94
COA: 88|95

If the roster strength's are to be believed, they have a better offense, we have a better defense. They have better shoooters, and we have a small rebounding edge. From what I've seen of the rosters, I would tend to agree with all of that except I feel we ought to have a large rebounding edge. They've shot 40.5% from 3 on the year. That's really, really high heh.

I am starting Otis Sneed at PF today, Sanders at Center. Both Sneed and Sanders are better with the ball, can step out to 15 feet a lot easier than McCants, but still have the size to muscle inside. I believe Sneed will match up a lot better with the smaller guys Oregon will be playing at the 4 spot today than McCants.

Barrett will be asked to defend their potential all-american PG, Stephen See. He's their leading scorer. They're all deadly from 3, but See seems to be the threat they go to the most often, so Barrett gets him.

After starting out 19-0, Oregon lost 3 straight conference games. And after those 3 losses, they've gone 15-1, losing only to the #2 team in the Pac 10, 28-8/3 seed Oregon State. They redeemed themselves by beating Oregon State to win the pac 10 tournament.

They struggled a little with 15 seed UNC Asheville in the first round, only winning 86-75. After that, they beat (7) UTEP by 44, (3) Virginia Tech by 27, and (1) Georgia Tech by 16. We've had similar resounding success in our run to the final four, so this is a pretty big clash between two powerhouse teams!

Scouting

PG Stephen See – SR – 90 OVR – 93 speed/90 quickness. 81 defense/83 steals. 91 hands/92 passing. 86 close/81 med/88 3/89 off the dribble/85 in traffic. Coach on the floor with 84 off awareness/80 def awareness. Above average, but not great, athleticism. See is a wonderful offensive player, his on ball defense is a little low. He averages 22.4 ppg/4.7 rpg/4.6 apg. A potential top pick in the upcoming draft.

SG Owen Birley – SO – 87 OVR – 93 speed/89 quickness. 85 defense/74 steals. 87 close/78 med/90 3/79 off the dribble. Again, excellent awareness. 84 off/77 def. 10.6 ppg, birley is incredible for a sophomore. He's only a 35% 3 point shooter.

SF Jaja Boylen – SR – 88 OVR – 6'4” SF – 87 speed/83 quickness. 81 defense/70 steals. 84 close/79 med/91 3/83 in traffic. Incredible awareness, 84 off/87 def. He's a great athlete, 85 vert/80 str/80 hustle, an outstanding dunker . 9.5 ppg/4.8 rpg. Boylan is shooting 45% from 3 on the season.

PF Dedrick Erwin – JR – 87 OVR – 6'8” PF – 86 orb/82 drb. 84 post off/82 post def. 74 blocks, 72 steals too. 97 close/87 in traffic. A great leaper, strong, and again, elite awareness... 90 off/81 def. 14.0 ppg/5.9 rpg.

C Darrell McCrommon – JR – 85 OVR – 6'7” SF (why is the SF at center???) - 78 orb/78 drb. 68 post off/70 post def. Terrible shot blocker. 91 close/82 med/86 3/84 off the dribble/87 in traffic. A great leaper, dunker, solid strength... also good awareness, 74 off/82 def. Just 4.7 ppg and hopefully with us using Sneed in the lineup(much quicker/better outside the paint than McCants), we can handle their smaller lineup.

Backup SG Phillip Hacker is rated 85 OVR and is an 87 rated 3 point shooter, 5 points/game.

Backup PG RJ Hobbs is rated 81 OVR, he's their best on ball defender, rated 89 there, and can shoot from all over. He's the worst 3 point shooter on the team with a 76 3 point rating. 4.9 ppg.

They have no big man depth but a couple other guards rated 79-80 or so. We'll just have to see how the matchups play out on the floor. We'll try to dominate in the post obviously, and try to contain their smaller, faster, great shooting starting 5.

Our unity is 93, theirs 90.
