There was a reason UNC only scored 69 in the opener, and it has nothing to do with faulty offense. Their defense was outstanding. It forced numerous long UNCW possessions. Overplays, ices, switches, pressure. UNCW shot just 29.3%.

6-1, 180 Elliot Cadeau switches onto 6-8, 230 Blake Hinson and will not let him post. The Pitt forward has to go outside the 3 pt line to get the ball & Cadeau wins the battle on the backdown. UNC guards played tough on switches.

Words can’t do justice how great a pass this was from Elliot Cadeau. Not only drops a dime with his off hand, he holds the ball in mid-motion while looking off Bensley Joseph to leave his tag spot and cheat toward R.J. Davis in the corner. One of eight assists.

This was a huge play in the game. Harrison Ingram refuses to give up on the rebound. Goes over two Duke players to keep it alive, then makes the pass from the floor. There is no doubt his addition has given North Carolina toughness and major edginess.

Starting with the Auburn loss in 2019, John Calipari is 2-8 in the postseason. The losses have come with freshmen, players who have stayed, and older transfers. Don’t fall for the okey doke. None of it is working, and there is no reason to believe that will change.

Watch John Calipari’s reaction after this shot. Dillingham shows a curl, but ends up screening Aaron Bradshaw out for the long two. The 7-footer shows his ability to step out. He also made a three-pointer.

This was the killer. It came off a dead ball timeout. Duke switches the middle ball screen again & R.J. Davis attacks Paolo Banchero. On the penetration, A.J. Griffin tags Armando Bacot on the left block. This leaves Brady Manek open in the corner. Perfect read & skip by Davis.

Off the Reed Sheppard 3, Zvonimir Ivisic sprints back along with Sheppard to deflect a transition pass. Then he mid-rolls off the ball-screen into the behind the back pass for the Antonio Reeves 3. This was done with his back to Reeves the entire time. Great court awareness.

North Carolina is just tough, man. FSU is a tough place to go win & they have a unique look. All five UNC starters were at least +10 in point differential. 10 straight games of giving up 70 points or less, but the Tar Heels can win playing fast or slow.

Yes, the dunk didn’t go down, but this is next level footwork & agility by someone 7-2. If yesterday is any example, Kentucky’s offense will not run at a slower pace because Zvonimir Ivisic is in the floor.

Yes, R.J. Davis does want the moment, and he got what he wanted. FSU switches the 6-9 De’Ante Green on him. Davis gets him to overrun in the lane, and has space for the shot. Deadly in mid-range. Shades of the famous Byron Russell play. Biggest play of the game.

There is a wall of three defenders to stop the original drive off the ball screen. From there Seth Trimble puts on a clinic. So much ball pressure he can’t get screened. Skyy Clark is a good guard, but he has nowhere to go. Low stance, sliding feet by Trimble.

An example of UK’s offensive woes. Cuts not hard. Ball is caught five feet behind arc. Aimless dribble pickup. Can’t penetrate. Spacing, two guards on top of each other on top of the key. Oscar catches ball behind 3-point line. Dribbles into contested 14-foot jump boom.

This looks like UK ball movement we’ve seen all year. Correct read by DJ Wagner against ice. Tre Mitchell doesn’t force. Ball moves side to side. Mitchell probably had the 3, but attacks the closeout. Draws the middle help, sets up Reed Sheppard for the 3.

This is indicative of the defense North Carolina has played starting with Oklahoma. P.J. Hall has nothing clean. Cormac Ryan digs then plays tenacious D on Dillon Hunter. Violent, chopping feet, bodying with chest. No reaching. No opening of the hips.

Jason Hart equals good hire. Coached guys like Buzelis, Scoot Henderson, & Holland in the G-League which is now defunct. He also coached over a half-dozen NBA players at USC. Mark Pope & Hart played together for the Bucks in 2000-01.
