I think the main problem right now is Hubert, & that’s fixable also if he’ll look in the mirror & be less stubborn (or have some sit downs with Roy). Certainly the personnel could be better in spots, but the ball movement & shot selection is questionable at best, that’s on the staff. Use multiple defenses, get back to the secondary break, & put people (mostly JWash, but others too) in position where they can succeed. Cadeau is having a little bit of a rough stretch, but I do believe EC is a generational talent with his vision & passing acumen, but Hubert is not utilizing that to the teams fullest advantage.

Cant get excited for someone we cant afford and never set foot on campus. Mediocre will be all we can be till NIL is changed or there is some kind of salary cap.

27 3's isn't that much. It's exactly in line with how many 3s UNC's been shooting per game this season relative to their shot attempts. 27 of 78 FGA were 3s (35.8%). For the season it's now 35.3%. So, yea.. I don't think I would've minded more 3s. I would rather have more of them go in.

I also tracked the first half 13 3PT attempts. The second half, of course UNC will shoot more 3s and probably lesser quality ones due to the score.

In the first half 8 of the 13 PT attempts were open looks.
Cadeau 0/2 (both contested, one he may have been fouled)
RJ 1/5 (3 of 5 were open looks)
Trimble 0/1 (1 attempt was open)
Jackson 1/2 (1 attempt was open)
Withers 0/2 (both attempts were open)
Washington 0/1 (1 attempt was open)

Debate whether you want Withers and Washington (or RJ for that matter, lol) shooting open shots. But if you like open 3s and think open 3s are good shots, they had their opportunities. They missed.

Interesting notes from the box score:

1) As a team, we were 5 for 27 from trey, good thing Jack hit 3 of his 5 treys, without his we were 2-27. Wonder how many more treys Nate wants us to take?

2) RJ played 35mins, was 7 for 24 from the field, was 1 for 11 from trey for his 18pts, anyone recall some of those ole Caleb Love box score lines?

3) JWash got 12mins, our longest guy gets 12mins against a very long team? Jalen was 1 for 5 from the field and his shots did not look confident at all.

4) 12 assists on 32 made shots?

5) Jwit played 11mins, produced 2pts and 1 board

6) Our leading rebounder was our PG, Cadeau... he had 6

7) as a team we had 12 assists vs 13 TOs
