Mountain West Tournament Predictions:
Best Value: Colorado State +360
This is a team you can really rally behind. They have beaten every team in the conference this season besides UNLV and there’s a good chance they won’t face one another. Even if they did, the third time would be a charm. The Rams also have arguably the best player in the conference, David Roddy, who will probably be an NBA pick. He’s got soft hands, range, and a great feel for the game.
Best Longshot: New Mexico +13000
They have a new coach in town re-energizing the program, a guy by the name of Richard Pitino. That carries some weight. He lured good players over and now they have one of, if not the best, backcourt in the Mountain West.
