Unless everyone was watching a different game than I was watching it was not just great offensive performances from Jackson and Withers that kept Carolina ahead slightly thru out the night but Coach Davis’s probably BEST COACHING DECISION the entire season when with about 12,minutes to go with Syracuse guard Starling lighting up every Tar Heel person trying to slow him down he took a giant gamble and asked Drake Powell to try and slow down the Syracuse sharpshooter who was as having a career game and was trying to put the final nail into Carolina’s coffin in its hopes to getting invite to March madness…
What a great move as Powell’s height and quickness completely shut down the Orangeman star for the next 10 minutes helping Carolina build up a workable lead again. His clutch block on Starling who was trying to tie the game but ate rubber instead was the play of the game and it kept Carolina’s season already on life support alive for another game…For those who live to attack and criticize Coach Davis at every opportunity must admit as much as it hurts to say so that was a game saving decision as was going with three forwards(withers, Powell and Washington) in winning time instead of playing four guards…
