Michigan State, on the other hand, has outstanding depth. The Spartans got 33 points from their bench against Connecticut in the semifinals.
Always be careful what you wish for, because it just may come true. If Lucas wants to push the ball up the court every time, advantage Tar Heels.
"Every time I looked up, they're getting an offensive rebound," said North Carolina coach Roy Williams. "The announcer started saying, 'That's 14, 15, 16,' So it is a huge concern, but it's a concern any time you play Tommy's teams."
"I want to push the ball up the floor every time," he said. "We have some good wing players that can really run, and bigs that can get up and down the floor as well. . . If there's a wideopen opportunity to run for an easy basket, Michigan State needs to take it. But it would be a mistake for the Spartans to just run for the sake of running.
4. Spartans' depth. Injuries have prevented North Carolina's bench from being a strong point this season.
Let's throw a Number 6 in this mix too Defense. Carolina has been playing very good defense in the tournament and while I expect them to do it again tonight, it is imperative that they do. I don't mean just perimeter defense but they need to clog the lane. MSU is ranked 260th in the country with just over 5 made three's per game so they may not shoot it from deep that often. The love to penetrate and look for offensive rebounds. Carolina will have to box out and crash the boards. Will also need to have that inside/outside game going good. Wouldn't be a good thing to have an off night from three point range in the championship. I know Carolina can score but they will need to bring that defensive urgency again and hit the boards!
5. Heels from three. North Carolina is shooting an astounding 46.3 percent from 3point range in five NCAA Tournament games.
"Suton I think is a guy that, you know, is capable of shooting the 15foot jumper and is a pretty good shooter outside," Hansbrough said. "So it adds a little bit different aspect than some guys down low banging all the time. I understand he goes to the boards, is a good rebounder, but you also have to contest him outside."
锘? things to watch
3. Banging on the boards. Three times in the last four games, North Carolina has been outrebounded by its opponent.
2. Hansbrough vs. Suton. North Carolina center Tyler Hansbrough should be strong enough to overwhelm Michigan State's Goran Suton in the post.
That includes Saturday night's NCAA semifinal, when a smallish Villanova team posted a 5348 rebounding advantage that worried the Tar Heels even though they won 8369. Michigan State, which leads the nation in rebound margin at plus9.4 per game, fought a huge Connecticut team to a 4242 standstill on the boards.
Danny Green, Wayne Ellington and Ty Lawson all are over 40 percent, with Lawson hitting at a 60 percent clip. If the Tar Heels shoot better than 40 percent from 3point range against Michigan State, it will be nearly impossible to defeat them because they do so many other things well.
1. The pace. Michigan State got Kalin Lucas, Chris Allen and Durrell Summers out on the fast break to speed past Connecticut in an 8273 win in the NCAA semifinals. Lucas said he wants to do the same thing against North Carolina.
I hope both teams play at a high level. It is going to be a tough, competitive game. With wins over 2 Big East powers, the MSU team has to feel that they are a team of destiny. Although the Spartans are impressive, they have already experienced what UNC can do in terms of running the floor. If the Heels can maintain focus for 40 more minutes and play team ball at both ends, I like their chances. Go Heels!
Suton didn't play in the teams' first meeting because of a knee injury, but he is not an incredibly effective post defender. If he is going to hurt the Tar Heels anywhere, it will be when Michigan State has the ball.
Hansbrough, Ellington, Green. I agree that UNC must, MUST box out and get rebounds. I noticed that too many times vs. Villanova UNC had one shot. There were few instances of offensive rebounds, except Frasor in the second half. Villanova often got a few chances on the offensive end.
Just one win separates North Carolina from its second NCAA title in five seasons and the realization of a lifetime goal for seniors Tyler Hansbrough and Danny Green. Monday:
"When you can go 33 points off the bench, you're probably a very, very deep basketball team," said Connecticut coach Jim Calhoun.
