Funny. I did not like Digger, but he had some good teams.
Fuck Danny Ainge.
IIRC The year Michigan State with Magic won, there was a decent chance that 4 IN teams could have been in the final 4. I think there were 4 in the e8 - in different brackets.
But really not that great a chance because MSU beat our ass.
EDIT: I just went and looked at brackets - I am misremembering that 4 IN teams.
