And it sucks even more to look at the play and think that it looked so harmless. But, without Marshall UNC has struggled and that is expected.

Alright, now let's wait for Harrison Beal to declare. USC all the waaaaaaaay! Even if UNC had made it, they'll face USC and if Marshall doesn't play, Craft will rape White all game heck he'll rape Marshall, UNC won't make it far to final thats just a pipe-dream if they did but they wouldn't have any shots.

At least we can look forward to T-Rob Vs. Sully next week. Battle of the Top 4s down-low.

With Marshall, UNC can beat Kansas easily.

So.. is Barnes a top 5 pick this season? If we stay in that 5-6 range it looks like hell be a legitimate candidate for our pick. This tournament didn't help his stock at all.

Yep, there is definitely no doubt about that.

Barnes looked so average this game and had a poor tournament. Every time I watch him he plays poorly. I mean watching him drive for a dunk but gets rejected by the rim was just a facepalm moment. I know the tournament shouldn't hold weight over a full season but even last year he seemed average. He's still a top 10 talent in this draft but not one I'd choose with our pick.

Don't know about you guys but it's either Davis or package the pick for a young PG like Rondo.

Well, all I can say is this: if we manage to pick between 4-6, Barnes will likely be on the board (I think)

Kind of random, but I totally forgot Meyers Leonard (Draftexpress has him at 16), was on the U19 team going up against JV.

Yeah I wouldn`t be surprised if we shop the pick for an all-star type player unless there`s someone we absolutely love

And I'd happily take him.

Yeah, the same guy who had no show against Val right? Yeah that was him alright. The same one the Dr dubbed as potential ALL-STAR.

I thought maybe Barnes would shoot over 50% for once. It looks like another disappointing tournament run. Will he declare?

I actually think there's a good possibility of something like this happening. That trade with Barbosa and the comments by the brass afterward give good reason to believe our pick will be shopped. BC and Casey are trying to make the playoffs an show some promise next season... the tanking seems to be over after the season.

He's gotta declare I think. I don't think being at UNC is doing him any favours really. Plus he'll lose all of his teammates.
