I really hope Roy Williams talked some sense into his players, because Georgia Tech is a really good team, and I don’t want to see a second straight blow out especially not in the Dean Dome. Georgia Tech is kind of a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde team. They beat Duke at home, but them lost to Virginia on the road. What I do know is that they can match the size of Carolina and that is the only basic advantage Carolina has had on teams throughout the season. Rebounding will be a huge part of this game. The team with the most rebounds in the box score will win this game I can say with confidence. Carolina must not turn the ball over. A good day handling the ball for the Heels is like 15 turnovers. If they can keep it at the 12 or 11 range, I think that Carolina will have a really great shot at winning. Another X factor is toughness and heart. Against Clemson, most of the players showed no heart, toughness, or perseverance. I know this Carolina team is young, but they have to gain some mental toughness somewhere down the road. They’ll also have to face the Yellow Jackets without Tyler Zeller who is out 4 to 6 weeks. A Perfect time for a player like John Henson to step up and play well. Which player should the Heels concentrate on? Gani Lawal. He’s averaging 15 point and 9 rebounds on the season, a near double double. Carolina cannot let him get inside position and bully them in the post. The Heels have to be aggresive. They should also push the ball upcourt. Carolina would like to get the game into the eighties. I don’t Georgia Tech is fast enought to keep up with th Heels. If it’s a half court game, the guards for Carolina will have to take care of the ball. It is vital for Strickland and Drew to make wise choices when passing the ball. There should be no “no look” passes or behind the back passes, just fundamental basketball. The big men for Carolina need see the ball into their hands and try to keep from dropping the basketball. Big men like Deion Thompson and Ed Davis sometimes let the basketball slip out of their hands. All in All the Heels will be in for a fight. If they put effort into every play and scratch and claw for every rebound and loose ball, the Heels will end the afternoon with a win.
