UNC 2009 Champions?

Hi everyone!

I think that the UNC Tar Heels are going all the way. With Ty Lawson back the Tar Heels are unbeatable. If you do not agree, just look at the stars in their line-up. Field general, Ty Lawson (16 points, 6 assists, two steals per game) at point, a well seasoned, 3 –time all American in Tyler Hansborough at center, and a viable option out on the wing in Wayne Ellington. On top of the excellent line-up it, they play all their games in Greensborough, UNC has basically punched their ticket to Mo town.

The most important thing in the tourney is guard play. If you compare the backcourt of UNC to that of the other No. 1 seeds it is NO CONTEST. Ty Lawson is one of the best guards in the country point blank, period. Plus when you add in Ellington to the mix there is no debate. Some people claim Dejuan Blair is the best center, they claim he will beast Tyler in the elite 8. Wrong! Tyler Hansborough is the toughest player in the NCAA. He will eat Blair for breakfast.

The famous saying Defense wins championships is not true. A great offense always beats a great defense. If you can take the ball down the court and put it in the basket consistently, that team is going to win that game.

This is why I like UNC as the champs. They have an offense full of weapons that will not be stopped. They are just too talented.
