@JavierMoleroo no he visto nada a arizona este año y es el primer analisis en el que leo que arizona es mas profundo, todo el mundo dice todo lo contrario

🔬Arizona es el peor rival posible para Michigan. Igualan músculo interior con Peat, Krivas y Awaka, y suman a dos anotadores que te pueden decidir el partido. Con la batalla en la pintura igualada (ha sido la clave de los Wolverines esta temporada), queda ver cómo pueden frenar los Cadeau, Burnett, Gayle y compañía a dos bestias como Brayden Burries y Jaden Bradley. El partido pasa por ahí y negar triples en las esquinas a Kharchenkov. Sobre el papel, creo que Arizona es superior. Por variedad de armas y segunda unidad.

@willy_garcia4 con cuantos años se fue?

Nacida en Boadilla, se formó en Alcobendas y llegó a ser convocada por la Federación de Madrid para unas jornadas de entrenamiento. Hoy es la jugadora más dominante de la NCAA y está llamada a ser estrella mundial. Sarah Strong, uno de los nombres del futuro

@CarlosEstebanEB La verdad, no entiendo por qué motivo nl se juega con la linea de 3 normal, al menos en el ultimo año de mini. Ya estamos bajando la canasta y encogiendo el balón, es necesario facilitarlo tanto cuando al año siguiente se les viene todo encima de golpe?

A punto de acabar el #PlanetaMini2026 la conclusión que saco es que desde hace ya varios años el triple rectangular en minibasket no pinta nada, incluso pasa desapercibido en las retransmisiones gracias al espacio de juego de los equipos.

@adk7612 @Bostonsports358 @tmetcalf11 @NoCeilingsNBA 33%

@digilost @Bostonsports358 @tmetcalf11 @NoCeilingsNBA At what about a 15% clip!

7’3” people should not be able to do this. Have been blown away by the growth in Mara’s footwork this year

@NCAABuzzerBters my only explanation is that cronins a racist against europeans

A year ago, Aday Mara was playing just 13.1 minutes per game off the bench of a 7-Seeded UCLA squad. Now he’s the Breakout star on a Final Four squad averaging 13.5 points, 5.3 rebounds, 3.8 assists, and 2.8 blocks per game this tournament for #1 Michigan

@Bostonsports358 @tmetcalf11 @NoCeilingsNBA its just a matter of in game volume. He did that in spain at the pro level and also in fiba international competitions where hes won medals playing against current nba players

@digilost @tmetcalf11 @NoCeilingsNBA Not to the point where it helps spacing

@Bostonsports358 @tmetcalf11 @NoCeilingsNBA he literally can shoot 3ptrs

@tmetcalf11 @NoCeilingsNBA He needs to develop at least a mid range jumper to be viable in the NBA

@_juanvas Es un gran error de Mccollum, Fol puede compartir pista cin Manyawu sin problemas. y tendrían mas fuerza en el rebote

No sé porqué tanto lío con Folgueiras y sus minutos de ayer. El día de Nebraska era un claro partido para el malagueño pero ayer ante dos gigantes en la pintura era momento de Manyawu o Howard, a pesar de su inoperancia ofensiva. Ni ayer no valía nada, ni el otro día era NBA!

@beardedhawkeye Alvaro should leave

So, barring any unexpected portal departures, Iowa has for next year: Cooper Koch Tate Sage Alvaro Folgueiras Isaiah Howard Cam Manyawu Trevon Jirak showed some promise. Trey Thompson is there. Ethan Harris incoming. Get a PG and a big in the portal. Can’t wait!

Thank you Bennett Stirtz. You laid the foundation for years to come. Elite 8 in Year 1. Simply incredible. GO HAWKS!

@ThunderfansRgai @DiegoOjeda724 @jasonrmcintyre If you think like that youre either rage baiting or didnt watch the games

@DiegoOjeda724 @jasonrmcintyre Stirtz is the reason they’re here. Folgueiras is a just soft like all Spanish players and Illinois is physical. Alvaro doesn’t like physical defense

Just realized Folgueiras the hero of multiple games this tourney, has played 9 minutes? 0-2? 0 points? Is he ill? injured?

@DiegoOjeda724 @IowaHoops He couldn’t hard anyone or rebound this game and making terrible decisions. We had to go Howard for defensively matchups to even keep us in this game.

Final | #3 Illinois 71, #9 Iowa 59

@dancingwithnoah no opportunities from mccollum

Alvaro Folgueiras went from his stretch over the season in past three games to 9min, 2 TO, 2 stocks, no points, boards or assists. In a game where hawks desperately needed some physicality on the boards, he couldn’t get there. That’s tough.

@Coach_XaviEcija @Dieg0CP @gsole14 el criterio de mccollum no es el mismo con folgueiras que con el resto

@Dieg0CP @gsole14 jajajaja también, pero a Folgueiras lo están buscando expresamente solo estar en pista.

Y McCollum vuelve a sentar a Folgueiras. 4 jugadores capaces de tirar triples y muy móviles y Manyawu como único "cinco" interior.

@bucksdeplorable @BiggerTen I genuinly think Mccollum is drunk today. Wtf is that rotation

@BiggerTen Wondering where Folgueiras has been

Those two misses at the rim for Iowa just might do it.

@Itorija2 @EtiquetaNegra44 Juegan con 5 abiertos, al final Fol acaba haciendo de 4-5 pero tiene libertad para jugar dentro-fuera

@EtiquetaNegra44 En qué posición está jugando? Leo de alero en algunos sitios, pero no lo estoy siguiendo

Qué bonito despertar con esta noticia. Folgueiras está siendo uno de los nombres del torneo final de la NCAA. Esta madrugada ha jugado otro gran partido siendo clave en el tramo final. ¡¡ Si Iowa gana el próximo partido Álvaro jugará la Final Four !! ¿Saldrá elegido en la segunda ronda del Draft? ¿Volverá a Europa? Hay que verle en otro contexto, pero lo que está haciendo es muy prometedor.

@DraftCasual ofc but boguts performance was not the one expected from a 1st pick. And he had too many injuries. Maras ceiling is higher imo

@digilost If you tell Aday Mara today, that he’ll be drafted #1 pick and is a starting Center for a NBA championship team, I’m sure he’ll be happy.

"Invisible Giant" Aday Mara 7'3 C Ceiling Comp: Andrew Bogut Pros (percentile per 40): -Post Touch (95th NonDunk Rim%, 43% RimM Ast'd) -Efficient Scorer (95th TS, 97th eFG) -Elite Playmaker (87th Ast) -Elite Blocker (99th Blocks) -Good Rebounder (96th Reb) Cons: -Perimeter Shooting -Perimeter Def Mara at 45th Ast/TO, isn't even turnover prone. His 44th Usg hovers Edey Clingan. I don't expect 7'3 giants to defend perimeter. Mara is the next iteration of Playmaking Giants, with very underrated Post scoring (his post touch hovers Ayton, Jahlil Okafor). Pair all this with elite interior def at 7'3, I have Mara ranked as high as 5-8th best prospect.

@1guy0pancreas @DiegoOjeda724 @onballcreator Mara has always been a 3pt shooter before Mick Cronin wasted him

@DiegoOjeda724 @onballcreator name a single NBA player who’s an above average 3pt shooter that shoots below 70% from the line. mara’s at 58% for his college career and it’s gone down every year. i’m a ucla fan so i watched him a lot his first 2yrs

Aday Mara is a very good prospect - possibly a lottery level guy But let's also remember that he's an upperclassman, will be age 21 on draft night which is on the older side He doesn't shoot 3's, struggles from FT line Can't really get out on the perimeter & contest 3's or close out on guys so like if he's going against a team w/ a 5 who can attack OTD from the perimeter or shoot the 3 then it could be tough to put him on the floor Like, h can only defend in the paint pretty much. That can work in college but the NBA a lot of the 5's can shoot and/or drive from the perimeter. There's more spacing, it's a faster game. There's defensive 3 seconds, etc. And he's had some issues w/ touch on shots within 15 feet of the basket (doesn't really take shots beyond 15 feet), has had some issues w/ fouling & has had some issues w/ turnovers Has also had some issues w/ mobility/conditioning Good prospect (has been top 20 on my board for a bit) but let's not get carried away 🤝 W/ that being said, after the top 5-7 or so guys at the top of this draft class, it's pretty wide open & all the guys in that range have question marks so not that crazy to have him top 10, I suppose
