North Carolina -7 over BC *****
Think BC def will have big time matchup problems today keeping 6'11 Bacot,6'11 Garcia and Maneck who at 6'9 is all over the court . Love and Davis at gd can dribble and more importantly avg almost 4 assists per game. NC was blowout by Kentucky and lost to Purdue and struggled vs Brown but today BC's front line has Bickerstaff and Post who are also 6'9 and 7'0 but cannot play defense and if NC fouls either one of them they are the worst FT shooters in the country. shooting 66% and 63 %.. Think NC is coming off a 20 pt win vs Appa St and continue with a double digit win on the road.
Iona -10 vs Marist ****
Almost every MAAC game has been postponed except this one. Covid isn't in New Rochelle yet. Iona already won 78-71 up in Poughkeepsie a few weeks ago .
Pitino's team will get better as the season progress's due to his intense practices. They press and rebound and play defense something that Iona hasn't done in years .Iona always has superstar left overs from Johnnies recruiting area in the NYC area. He hire and rebound. Then he has 6'8 Joseph at 6'9 and Slaz. Both can score play 6'8 Van Eyfck who had 8 assist vs marist in their last game. How many 6'8 fds get 8 assists in a game. Jolly is there best player and scorer . Iona a few yrs ago had great shooters or scorers but once you got the ball you did give it up If you break down the stats Iona has assist per game avgs 2.2,2.7,3.7,1.2 and 1.8. That means almost every starter is avg over 1 assist a game I would think that leads the nation . That sharing the ball. They beat Marist heir place by 7 . Think they will win by double D's at home and remember covid hasnt hit New Rochelle yet
