I don't see this team doing much of anything this season (which is fine ... we can't always be a championship contender) and to be fair, I've only watched a little bit of the season:
1) Kansas game. Although we looked like a high-school team against a D1 team, we fought hard in the second half which gave me hope for the season.
1) second half against Dayton ... I expected us to look good because we won that half by twenty ... we didn't look good. We looked to be about the same as Dayton (with respect to size and skill level).
2) Auburn game. We looked like a high school team playing against a D1 team. We never had a chance and Auburn knew it.
3) Michigan State game. We looked like a high school team playing against a D1 team. Although we took them to overtime, I don't think MSU ever thought they would lose that game .... and I don't think we ever thought we would win it.
4) Georgia Tech game. We looked to be about as skilled as G. Tech. The bright spot in that game was that there was a two minute stretch where Seth looked like the best player in college basketball.
We're not fun to watch. We stand around the perimeter and wait for RJ or EC or Seth or occasionally Ian try to drive to the basket. J. Wash doesn't get involved in the offense, and despite the fact that we have out-rebounded other teams, it doesn't look like we out-rebound the other team. The opposition's best offense is to just shoot the ball and get their own rebound and put it back in. It doesn't look like our coaches are coaching anything, and I know that that is not the case .... but I don't really know what they're trying to get us to do. It wouldn't surprise me if we finish around .500 for the season. I hope I'm wrong. Go Heels!
