Marquette's lack of any inside talent killed them. Dwight Burke was the only chance they had of stopping Brook Lopez, and 85% of the time that was an easy two points for Stanford. Marquette's other inside players were abused by the Lopez brothers. Marquette's guards are also to blame-Mitch Johnson had 16 assists and ONE turnover. If Marquette wins by forcing turnovers and running, uncontested entry passes don't do that.
"Easily the player of the game not to mention his 30 pts."
Don't forget the hell of a game Jerel McNeal had. If he lands the jumper on the previous possession or Brook Lopez misses that shot, McNeal is the player of the game.
