The Spartans Invade

The Michigan State Spartans got passed the first round and they moved on to play the Memphis Tigers. The Spartans played very well especially on defense. Adreian Payne played very well with 5 blocks, 10 rebounds, and 14 points. Derrick Nix played great as well with 8 rebounds, 4 steals, and 13 points. Gary Harris was the big time shooter for the Spartans though. He had 23 points more than all scorers this game.

Joe Jackosn played well again for the Tigers, nearly as good as against Saint Mary's. He had 7 rebounds, 3 assist, and 12 points. Geron Johnson was the real play maker though, he had 4 three's, 16 points, and 4 rebounds. Thats not all though he played good defense with 2 steals. The final score was Michigan State 70- Memphis 48.

The Spartans are now moving on to play either Duke or Creighton, who do you think till win that match up. I personally believe that Duke will win because of Seth Curry's scoring combined with Mason Plumlee's rebounding and scoring is practically unstoppable alone. Then, you have to worry about Quinn Cook's ability to steal and assist, now they are really unstoppable. That is my opinion tell yours in the comments box!
