The North Carolina Tar Heels have been off to a hot start. UNC has two candidates for the wooden award RJ Davis, PG and Armonda Bacot, C. In my opinion they have the best player in the country Davis. He is a lethal shooter and when he hits a shot or two they have to overplay and he can get to the rim and finish. With Bacot he is very one dimensional. He is a post player. The good thing with Bacot is he is very strong and he can seal his defenders. When he seals he usually has an easy dunk or layup but depending on who has the ball they always can’t make a good entry pass. When they both play with a chip on their shoulder they are very good but Bacot usually is lazy when he is in a game that they think is easy.
UNC has a very solid team and can make a decent run in March. The thing is, I don’t know if they can make a championship run. There is a big change that UNC has to make in my opinion. The change that coach Hubert Davis has to make is starting Seth Trimble,(G) over Cormac Ryan,(G). Ryan is a great shooter who can knock down a 3-point shot but Trimble brings everything. He is a defensive menace, he rebounds well and is super athletic with an alright jumpshot. UNC can make it to the Elite 8 as long as Davis stays hot. UNC is one of the top ACC teams right now and they have been on a very cold streak and still have to play Virginia twice and have to play Duke right now one of the hottest teams in the country right now. UNC is projected to be a two seed but they may drop down a seed or two with the tough remaining schedule.
