on perimeter defending of the three-ball (if memory serves...UNC was getting decent looks early even with NAW and 5 in, but weren't hitting them) and as good as 5 and NAW are, I don't think their absences defensively are a cause for UNCheat going 15-22 from 3 in the last 3/4 of the game.

I just like to imagine the indignation we would have if the fans of a team we beat by 21, in a game where the fouls discrepancy was not overly skewed (18-13), blamed the loss on the refs.
