+/- UNC

[Dan E. Dangerously]

Plus

+The Usual Suspects: Barry's son, Kadji, and Scott doing what they do game in and game out.

+TMJ: He only score 6 points, but all came from downtown where is was 2/3. Good to see him get into a bit of a groove from there.

+Julian Gamble: I'm getting word just now that he's just blocked another shot by James McAdoo.

+3 Point Shooting: We were 15/26 tying a school record for 3's made.

+The Play:

Love it.


Minus

-Everyone is now on our nuts: People are talking about us being ranked #1. No clue how this team will handle that attention.

I honestly dont see how you can stop us right now. If we are cold from outside then we go inside. If you double then either Rion or TMJ kill you. If you play zone, then we penetrate and eat you up. We have so many weapons.

Plus our defense is just straight nasty. Steals, perimeter defense, and blocks out the ***.

I don't think it'll get to their head. I mean, they beat FSU by 24 after the epic win over Duke. They've handled everything so far, why not now? Now, with that said, I would not be shocked if we lost 1 of the 2 games on the road this week.

I'm not worried about the attention. People were worried how well we would play after being #8 and we have continued to play very well. Larkin and kadji seem to really enjoy the large crowd and Durand seems normal. Larranaga will have them ready.

 

[DCF in LA]

This team is so hungry and focused on the big prize; Larranaga keeps talking about how much they want to make a deep NCAA run.

They seem to play every game like it's their last, because it IS their last. They'll never play together against UNC in the regular season. They'll never play Duke at our house again. Five seniors give this campaign a sense of urgency that you never really see any more. We're a throwback to how CBB used to be.
