I never said Lamb will be our PG next season. :roll:
And I already said Beal will come off the bench if we draft him next season.

FSU can't contain Zeller off the offensive glass.

Barnes going coast-to-coast, spin move, finger roll.

Barnes made the basket on that drive. But it really was far from smooth.

Harrison Barnes looking pretty raw off the dribble right now. That's a concern for me, and I'm a big fan of his.

I can never shake the feeling that HB will never be a special nba player, I really don't know why. He looks the part and has the moves. I dunno he just doesn't have that smooth natural play that I like in my prospects. It seems ludicrous to me but I like Kendall Marshall more then HB despite the fact that its common knowledge that HB will have a better career.

I've always been wondering who the best player for UNC is, and it's gotta be Zeller followed by Marshall.

Barnes looks like he's thinking too much of what he wants to do instead of reacting to how the defender is playing him. Maybe that's why he doesn't look naturally smooth. Like that travel he was called for shuffling his feet before putting the ball on the deck, he had a wide open shot from the corner, but decided to jab for a dribble-drive. Things like that shows he's thinking too much.

Really stupid to have MKG coming off the bench to try to help Miller out. In his last 2 games MKG was averaging 14.5 pts, 8.5 rebs, 9 fta/g, 61 fg%. Why even mess with that team anyway.

Committee is pissed right now. They are going to have to compeltely re-do the bracket after these 3 games. As of last night they could have went to bed, with one bracket if Mich St won and one if Ohio St won, and had zero work to do today.

The three games today are all worst case scenario for their work today.

They need to re-open the one seed discussion with UNC losing

Florida St and Vandy's seed's need to be completely re-done. That basically means the logistics in creating the bracket have to be totally re-opened,

Add in St Bonaventure stealing a bad, and having to discuss if Xavier is in, and totally re-opening the at large discussion,

Total nightmare scenario for them.
