Pretty sure the tourney champion is the ACC champ. The tourney champ gets the automatic bid.

Other sites had him as a low four-star. But all had the same basic appraisal that he “projects” to a high major starter. Question is how long does it take for the projection to come through. UNC used to have a whole string of centers that never saw the court until their junior year and really...

Mick Cronin is supposed to be huge into horse racing and betting. Have heard he has a deep urge for Kentucky Bourbon too. Could be "the guy". :unsure:

Whether he switches on a guard or tries to stay with Waardenburg on the perimeter - not sure there is a good matchup for Howard in that game. Bet we see a ton of zone or just go with Usher. But that is a problem for tomorrow. :cool:

Might be a bit of syntax. I saw him what I call hedging a good bit to cut off the ball but then returning back to the big with the original defender usually picking up the ball. I think that is what you are saying. What I didn't see was him jumping the ball screen to fully switch on the guard...

Last night we finally got the team I believe Pastner thought he would have this year. He played his older guys with a big boost from Deebo and a sprinkle of Devion. The focus was on the defensive end. And for whatever reason, they played with an energy they haven’t played with this year. All the...

This game was all about the early energy we played with. First 3/4 of the game we were outrageous and the energy we played with Tactically I love that we played half the game with a much more open set than the modified Princeton. Made the driving lanes open and saw a lot of people get to the rack.

The only question/comment I have about that article is why did it take until now to run a play specifically for Devoe?

Was interesting to see the 2 young uns that he really likes are Deebo and J Moore. I keep thinking J Moore has as high a ceiling as anyone.

Brey and Forbes are the ones to go to for personalities

Tonight was one of the few times I would really question our effort. Getting back on defense sucked. We let our offonsive ineptitude get in the way of just general effort. We need to look at spacing the floor rather than running the offense though the elbow

I think there is more potential/talent on this squad than this article gives credit for - but on the other side it is hard to argue with him given the results so far this year. The schedule gets easier in the second half and hopefully the young uns are growing up. Success and in reality an...

No - it means you don't get how they/he play BB. He is a stretch 4 who shoots better than Usher but drives the ball hard off of spacing and ball movement. The way they play creates that space for him. Us - not so much. If I had my druthers we would play Dean Smith's double post system. I...

I will give you Wardenberg is 6-10 but he hasn't posted anyone all game. Plays like Usher. The rest are 5'11", 6'3", 6'5" and 6'7". Similar to us and smaller at places. My real point was watch how they play. They play a game of tempo and space - which gets them better shots than we get and...

If you want to see how to beat UNC with a small lineup, Miami is destroying them and they are about the same size we are

I almost always put in a flex set or 2 whenever I coach a team. And then pull it out when I am pissed off at them that they are not screening off the ball or dribbling too much or something like that. 4 or 5 times downcourt and they usually get the idea :oops: The other coach starts...

I will give Pastner benefit of the doubt for starting the small lineup. Lot of coaches simply try to get their best 5 players on the court almost regardless of position. I've done it myself. And he was making the same bet he made against BC that he could score his way to a win. I just don't...

Went to Chapel Thrill and watched this abomination from behind the basket. Got a chance to see more of the court and goings on than I normally get on the TV. Be it live or on TV, it is hard to find much positive about tonight. To start out though I will try: The team generally played hard...

I like the small unit but I will be surprised to see it be the predominate lineup tonight. The only way is if we Simply turn it into a track meet and don’t play much at all in the half court. That hasn’t been pastner’s approach to any game I can recall so I don’t expect it tonight.

Saba cannot play against a team like ND. They made him play in space and exposed him quickly and badly I am hoping that against a team like UNC he can play 10 to 15 min against Bacot and simply keep him off the offensive boards. If he can do that he can be a big positive tomorrow
