Posted Feb 13, 2008

Whoever is critical over UNC's last three games needs to sit back and consider what the Tar Heels have dealt with. And, anyone who says UNC wouldn't have beaten Duke with a healthy Ty Lawson is fooling themselves. Nobody knows whether or not the Heels would have knocked off their rivals and earned more convincing wins over Clemson and Virginia, but it's pretty clear Lawson would have made a positive difference for UNC.
