Hubert decided his guys could beat Alabama playing at Alabama's tempo.


UNC has been winning this way for the last two decades, so it's not surprising. Roy was a master of transition offense.

So yesterday before the game, I linked to a tweet by Wyatt Fulton who did 2,353 simulations of Bama vs UNC and had Bama winning 84-78 (here's the tweet: Tweet).

So far his simulations are 3-0, so it should be interesting to see what the simulator says for the Clemson game.

Hindsight is 20/20. Hubert probably wins that game by trying to keep the pace not quite as high and focus on force-feeding low post touches for Bacot and others. That is like demanding your C8 Corvette do the Costco run though. UNC is, traditionally speaking, a program that has more fitness and ability to sustain efficient offense at tempo than their opponents. Alabama challenged them on their terms, they accepted, and Alabama was a little more fit and a lot more productive in winning time on both sides of the court.
