[QUOTE="lv20gt, post: 654223, member: 2299"] I was mildly surprised at first. My guess is we see Price as a better shooter and since we were playing Jose and Mike anyways (and sometimes Bubba), Phillips would be redundant. I was surprised he didn't get any action due to Jose being in foul trouble, but having Bubba really helped there. My guess is Phillips would have been in there if we were nursing a lead but since there was more pressure to score we went with Price instead. I'm not sure Funderburk is better than Bryce but point stands anyways. The way I look at it is to me it looked like first game jitters while playing on the road against a quality team is why NCSU jumped out to a 15 point lead. After that we outscored them by 15 over the course of the next 30 minutes which would extrapolate to a 20 point win over a full game if we played at that level all 40 minutes. Now obviously we have to prove that we can do that over 40 minutes, but right now I think those first 10 minutes aren't the best indicator of what the team can do, especially since we looked so much better once we settled down. We certainly need to improve, but to me it's exciting to be able to get this win and still see clear ways of improvement. It did not look like we were at our best last night, yet we got the W anyways. IMO Moses was the symptom of the bigger issue. In the first half, especially the first 10 minutes, our guards were passive in getting the ball. They were content to let themeselves be guarded and so Moses often went out as a sort of outlet. After the first 10 minutes, and especially in the second half, our guards were more aggressive in getting the ball, and Moses stayed down low more. [/QUOTE]
