Thoughts from a Walk-On: UNC vs. UNCW
Posted Dec 6, 2018
The first half wasn’t very good. Helpside rotations weren’t clicking, there were easy baskets given up and lapses matching up in transition that also gave up easy looks. The second half looked more like the Tar Heels have looked when playing well this year. Trapping defense forced turnovers and easy transition buckets, and UNC's ball movement on offense was much better.
