[QUOTE="YlJacket, post: 679256, member: 2784"] I agree but will go more the comment - returned to our normal selves in the second half. That's simply nuts. That second half team is 10-4 maybe 11-3 this year. The first half was about UNC being simply atrocious. The second half was about GT playing very good, high level basketball against an embarrassed and motivated team. I didn't see anything that said we reverted to earlier form. I didn't think we had a shot unless DeVoe was over 20. I am floored at how well Moses, Banks and even Cole played and arguably were the difference in the game. That game was to put it mildly "loosely called" - both ways. If you were going to rebound you had to bring your hard hat and those guys did. There were guys flying out of the paint all day - especially in the second half. That was mans work. And we broke even on the boards against the top rebounding team in the ACC. That and having less TOs than UNC won the game IMHO. We didn't wilt on either aspect. One final thought about the second half is we made plays and ran coherent sets. It was admittedly almost totally Jose focused with him making the penetration and pass decisions - but we ran just enough "stuff" to get switches and give Jose driving lanes. And as opposed to earlier this year, when they had shots both Jose and Bubba generally knocked them down. Something we hadn't seen prior. This team likely isn't beating Duke and will have a couple more WTF losses - but if they can play like they did in the second half they will be at .500 in the ACC and maybe above. It is a lot more possible now than it was a week or so ago. [/QUOTE]
