Between BYU, UNLV and the Lobos, the Mountain West should earn three NCAA tournament bids for the second straight season. Steve Alford's bunch is the best team you haven't paid any attention to yet, and senior swingman Roman (don't call me Ramon) Martinez is one of the country's most underrated long-range gunners. He's shooting 53.3 percent from beyond the arc and has made 16 of his past 21 treys. Part of this is attributable to his excellent hoops DNA: His grandfather, Francisco Martinez, played on Mexico's bronze medal-winning team in the 1936 Olympics in Berlin. Roman's father, Eddie, a car salesman in El Paso, told the Albuquerque Journal, "They say talent sometimes skips a generation, and that's what happened to me. It went from my dad to Ro."
