No. I think our last win against them was with Doherty in some "pre-season" thing around 2001 or so.

But the team looked good. They're going to have to figure out how to play small. I think they will. Our guard play will be best in the nation. You can win with that. Golden State has shown it. But, we'll see how things come together.

The game when Rashad McCants went HAM? That was special.
 
I'll have to watch it again once I refresh my bourbon, but I think I'd like to see Lubin start ahead of Washington. EC, RJ, ST, JW and Lubin. With Jackson first off the bench.

RJ 3-15 in a 3 pt loss @ KU

Teams that can focus on a single player and still defend well across the board will be difficult opponents. OTOH, there won’t be many other games where RJ struggles like that and none are going to be in environments like Phog Allen. I’m cautiously optimistic. Very cautiously, very optimistic.

I don’t think it matters that much. Seems like the Heels can get solid 40 minutes between the 2 of them.

They won’t face a better 5 this season.

Outrebounding KU bodes well moving forward.

Starting guards were 10-36/1-13. You have to figure most night will be much better.

Just hope that DaJuan dude doesn't get to defend RJ again. Ugly.

Hubert's legacy so far is not being able to finish close games with the lead.
Last year we were up 1 with the ball with less than a minute and lost.
Tonight, up again and lost.
Against Kansas in Finals, we were up 20 at half and lost.

That's coaching.

No one is the Second Coming of Coach Smith but just for the historical fun of it check into some of the results, and the commentary about them, in his first 6-7 years.
 
Hope RJ can figure out the 3 ball. Didn't Paige and Berry struggle a bit in their last seasons from deep? I think he will.

Cannot relate to this

Win or lose it’s a fun game that is ultimately meaningless

A great break from the stress

Your last sentence explains it. For me a close game is stressful.

These last two weeks my stress is through the roof, dad died, brother is a piece of shit, trying to take care of my mother, election, work, reviews, project behind, project manager that's a nit picking (*&^)* micro manager, I'm just mentally worn out, the added stress would make it not fun for me.

I'll watch it tomorrow, knowing the outcome, it will not be stressful.

But, I do hope you enjoyed it as everyone else that watched it live.

My wife and I just went on a nice long drive.
