Miller, I think you nailed it about Bacot. The kid came in last year and said he was going to be OAD. Damm, I fell for it. Shame on me! Most likely, he will be a 4-year player if he wants any chance at the NBA. The NBA does not have any room for a traditional 5 who cannot block shots and or shoot a consistent 15-20 outside shot. If Bacot attempted to shoot an outside shot right now everyone on this board would have a heart attack.
Bacot will be a solid presence for UNC over the next few years and that will be a good thing for UNC. Beast 1 (Sharpe) will be a lottery pick.
I don't think the 3-spot will be problem once Puff starts taking Leaky's minutes. Folks talk about defense, defense, defense. I would rather win many 95-87 games then deal with several 62-60 nail biters that can go either way on a last second miss by Platek or/and Leaky.
Beast 1 will block a lot of shots on rival players slipping into the lane.
