That was quite a performance by the Tarheels big three scorers in their opening round game against Long Island University. They scored 84 of the 'Heels 102 points in the 102-87 win.
Tyler Zeller had a career high of 32 points, Harrison Barnes had 24 points and a career high 16 rebounds, and John Henson had a career high of 28 points.
They won the game but the negatives almost outweigh the positives. The played horrendous defense (they gave up 85 shots), they still can't hit an outside shot (3 of 17 from the three-point line), and they were careless with the ball (18 turnovers). A repeat performance like this and Sunday will be their final game of the year.
From the fan's perspective, it was an exciting game to watch. Alot of up-and-down, alot of points, a few dunks, blocked shots and some great plays by both teams. You really couldn't ask for anything more from a #15-#2 game. Washington or Georgia?
