Summary

In this episode, we look at another impressive week for the No. 2 Michigan men’s basketball team, along with what’s next.

We begin by breaking down our biggest takeaways from the Wolverines’ wins over No. 9 Iowa and at Indiana in a span of three days. We look as Michigan’s low turnovers, big man defense, maturity in handling a two-day turnaround and more.

We then debate who is Michigan’s best player 19 games into the season, looking at three impressively deserving candidates. After that debate, we discuss who the Wolverines’ unsung hero of the season is.

We then close by looking at the big picture of things. We debate which banner is most important between a Big Ten regular-season title, Big Ten Tournament title and Final Four appearance, and assess Michigan’s chances at all three. We then close with a discussion of how important it is for the Wolverines to be a 1-seed, the No. 2 overall seed and more.
