First of all congrats to Louisville for winning the NCAA tournament. After hearing all the hype about the Candian players on the number 1 ranked Gonzaga and Stauskus on Michigan. It was another player, Trey Burke who stole the tournament spotlight. In my opinion he was by far the best player of the tournament. He led his team in points when he needed to but was also the one setting up his teammates at every change he got. He really got everyone involved. Overall he had the best tournament compared to other players. Hisb stats for the tournament speak for themselves. Michigan was a number 4 ranked team going into the tournament and Burke's all around best game was against the the well known and acclaimed number 1 Kansas. Burke scored 23 points and netted 10 assists. This is an amazing game for a college player. In my opinion he was the single most exciting player to watch in the tournament aswell. He was not the fastest point gaurd or the best shooting point gaurd However his change of pace and ball handelling skills far exceeded any others. He was the best all around best player in my opinon.

Moving on to the most fun team to watch. I think everyone would agree that FGCU aka Dunk City was the most overall fun and exciting team to watch. The first 15 seed to ever make it to the sweet 16, this was truly a cinderella team. If only they could have gone on the win the tournament it would have been one of the best sports stories of all time. FGCU Eagles were a team that looked like they just loved to have fun. The whole time they looked like they were enjoying every second and living every moment to the fullest. Not to mention they were the most atheletic team in the tournament flying high at every chance they got. They through alley oops, blocked shots, shot 3s, had fast breaks and high steals. They were awesome and just kept winning. Too bad every Cinderella story has to end as the clock always strikes midnight. Enjoy this Dunk City video in case you missed what they were all about.
