[Red and Black]

I think FC will struggle with Parsons and Pente. They are both elite 15th region guards and I don't think FC has the guards to play with them. The only chance that I think FC has in this game is to slow it down, force BL to play in the half court, and not let BL explode on big runs with fast break points, especially fast break 3's. If it turns in to a shootout then it's very much in BL's favor. FC has to be very smart and safe with the ball, if they turn it over a lot then they're in trouble. I think Buck and Allen will be a fun matchup to watch, if Allen is healthy and if they match up with each other. They're both exceptional athletes. Two good basketball teams but I think BL wins this one by 10+.
