kept reminding myself this but our defensive display at the end of the game was really awful, regardless.

5 threes in a row and a parade to the line with at least some of the calls being suspect made it look a little worse than it was. I doubt they'd hit those same five with no one on the court. Not saying I'm proud of our effort but it wasn't a complete collapse on the court either.

Favored by 28 and win by 16. Won't help the metrics if you care about that stuff

Of all the things to be concerned with, garbage time vs Campbell isn't it

I feel like that metric should be tweaked somehow so that when a team cuts into a big lead in garbage time, the winning team won’t be penalized.

that 28 in the last 6 minutes helped the Heels drop from 32 to 38 in the NET. Not a good result. Glad to see Davis start hot, but this team doesn't seem to know how to put the foot on the accelerator and keep it there.

Maybe not, but garbage time isn’t a great measure of that particular trait.

Losing garbage time seems to be a long standing UNC tradition.
 
I dont see the need to take anything good or bad from having to play what is basically a really good high school team.

We have had enough of a sample vs good to really good college teams to know we are nothing more than an average team this year.

Dean was a long time ago. If the Heels miss the tournament this year Hubert is going to be on the hotseat for sure.

I come in peace.

I don't see that happening. You guys have played a top five schedule. A brutal schedule. Your losses are to Kansas, Alabama, Auburn, Michigan State & Florida. You have wins over UCLA & Memphis. (Memphis went to Little John and knocked off the Tigers)

Looking at your schedule, you probably won't be seriously tested until the Pitt - Duke - Pitt gauntlet. (Yikes) And I'll bet by then that you're ranked and comfortably in the projected field.

agreed. it wasn't a disaster but it did not give me the warm and fuzzies.

and the officiating was definitely crap.

I think you guys are an above average team. A top 25 team. I see no reason why you won't finish top four in the league. (although I'd love to be wrong ;))

Memphis was an exhibition game.
