Should this Aztecs team be defined only by the NCAA Tournament? Does Matt Bradley deserve Mountain West Player of the Year?
Coach Brian Dutcher was finishing his postgame news conference following a confetti-filled, net-cutting ceremony to celebrate SDSU’s ninth regular-season championship in the 24-year history of the Mountain West. That’s seven more than the second program on the list, 11 more than the third.
It is the beauty and the beast of college basketball, a 68-team tournament that captures the imagination of a nation just as it is emerging from a long, cold winter into the warmth and eternal hope of spring. Careers are defined by March, not the grind of November, December, January and February. Legacies are immortalized.“Those expectations are there for a reason,” senior Matt Bradley said. “We can’t shy away from it. Fans have a right to want us to do well in March.
Whether that’s enough to get him Mountain West Player of the Year when postseason awards are announced in the coming days is a harder question to answer. People with all-conference ballots have called this the hardest awards decision maybe in conference history. Colorado State guard Isaiah Stevens might be the best overall player, but his team finished eighth. Wyoming’s Hunter Maldonado, who Saturday became the first player in Div. I history with at least 2,000 points, 800 rebounds and 600 assists, might be the next best, but his team finished last.
