I can't say how much better this team is going to be , but one thing we see is a true team effort now that Jones' one one and ball hogging style is gone. Yes, he was a great defender and had a lot of fire, but more often than not, players stood around waiting for a pass that would never come and watching Jones or Rozier have to go one on one late in the shot clock Quinn Snyder's coolness and unselfishness has made this team truly a team again . They move the ball and themselves to get open looks and all of a sudden, voila ,50% plus shooting and making a decent number of threes . At times this year, their offense was unwatchable , but with Pitino moving his attention to offense , this team has a chance for the final four. . The bottom line is to still be able to put the ball in the hoop. Johnson might be the key to do advancing against an NC State team that has proven it's talent ,but we have a HOF coach in Pitino vs Mark Gottfired,which is worth 3-4 points off the bat . Ricks record in round of 16 games unbelievable , I think only loss was to UK LAST YEAR. Correct me if I an wrong. Score for Friday UL 72- NC State 66
