B Mac is irrelevant to their title chances. If he's hitting, they aren't losing to anybody. If he's not, he just won't play lol (like right now)
I don't think OSU or Louisville are good offensive teams either, but they both have the numbers that say they are (10 and 12 in offensive efficiency, KU is 39). I think all 3 get offense out of their defense, but in the half court they're all pretty bad. But I guess it doesn't really matter as long as you win.

Gophs making a run ... only down 10 now. Now, I'll be really surprised if they can pull it to within 1 or 2 possessions, but still. Good stuff so far this half.

Florida should consider tightening up on Dre Hollins.

Florida Gulf Coast reminds me of Cincinnati Winton Woods down at the state tournament in the early 2000s. Robert Hite and C.J. Anderson could fly and they also hit a lot of deep threes. Gulf Coast is an aerial show. If they reach the Sweet 16, they will be the truest Cinderella team since George Mason in 2006. A 15 in the Round of 16 would be pretty cool.

Well that 2nd half was ugly but I'm decently happy about this year . UNC lost it's top 4 players still finished 3rd in the conference, went to the conf. title game and 2nd rd of the tourney. He'll half way through the year I was happy to just make the tourney, UNC will be back next year bigger and better. That being said I have Miami winning it all but wouldn't mind Fla.GC winning it.

That was 3 straight calls that were very tricky tack.

Yeah, Carolina definitely improved from the beginning of the season, but their inconsistency ended up biting them in the end. The lack of a true inside presence was the problem, as Johnson and James either aren't ready physically, or just not skilled enough yet. Paige progressed very well throughout the season, and Hairston and Bullock were outstanding much of the year as well. McAdoo was underwhelming, but if he had some help inside, his game would be much better. The Heels could return a great team next year if everyone returns (from a basketball perspective, they have no business leaving), they have some inside help coming in with Hicks and Meeks, and they still have a shot at Andrew Wiggins. The ending was disappointing, but this was always intended to be a stepping-stone year. Hopefully Carolina will be "back" next season.

Although he struggled at times, I'm sad to see Dexter Strickland go. His injury last year really made him a shell of his former self, but he gave everything he had to the Carolina program the last four years. He's a good kid and hopefully he's able to play somewhere overseas as a professional. He was a true Tar Heel.

Minnesota probably played the worst game they have all season. If they played 3,000 times, Minnesota would win 2,500+.
