NCAA Championship Game 2012: Anthony Davis Will Cement Legacy as Superstar

Kentucky's Anthony Davis is an absolute superstar in the college basketball world, and he can cement that with one more win against Kansas in the 2012 NCAA championship game.

It's going to much easier said than done, but I have to believe Davis and Kentucky are primed to take it all.

This is a team that is near flawless, and they've turned up their intensity at just the right time. Before the tournament I was very open in my criticism of the team, wondering if they were experienced enough or had enough depth, but they've more than answered the bell.

They play like a group of experienced seniors on the court. There doesn't seem to be a moment too big for this team.

As far as depth is concerned, senior guard Darius Miller takes care of that with his sharp shooting and leadership off the bench.

The Wildcats are near flawless...

As good as the rest of his team is though, it's Miller who makes Kentucky elite and close to unbeatable.

Check out these high words of praise from Mike Lopresti of USA Today regarding the phenom freshman:

"

Hello, Final Four Legends Department? We might have a new inductee headed your way. Tall kid. You'll be able to recognize him by his Kentucky uniform and arms the length of boa constrictors. Anthony Davis is the name. You'll no doubt notice his wingspan. He can stand at the free-throw line and touch the tuba player. We're seeing something special here. We're seeing a freshman on the verge of owning a Final Four, even though he takes a shot maybe once every five minutes. Even though he just turned 19.

"

All he needs is one more game to cement his superstar status in the college basketball world.

He literally changes the way the opposing team has to play the game, and I just don't see Kansas being able to combat his post presence for a whole game.

On offense he's got a plethora of good post moves that keep defenders guessing, and you might as well give up and go home if you're unlucky enough to have to guard him on the fast break. On defense he's just as effective, if not more. If he's not blocking a shot he's severely altering its course, and he's a tremendous rebounder.

One day we'll look back on Davis as one of the best to go through the NCAA on his way to NBA stardom.

First he must cement his legacy as a superstar in the NCAA though, and he'll do that with a win over Kansas.
