re: I don’t understand how Wade fans…

The final four teams aren't better coached, they just have better players. Compare our starting lineup to North Carolina, let alone Duke. Eason is the only player that would have started for any of them. They ran the same kind of plays, rubbing the point guard off a high pick so he could drive. Taking three's from the corners and wings. Feeding the low post. They just shot and passed the ball a lot better because they had better individual talent. If Wade cheated in recruiting , he still couldn't keep up with the old guard of Duke, North Carolina, Kansas, Villanova, Kentucky, Michigan, etc.

They get 5*'s let alone McDonald's All Americans every year without fail. If one of them doesn't pan out they have two others to put in their place. Let's see how many of our players in the portal go to quality programs or how many end up big dogs at mediocre schools. Murray and Reid are the only ones that will be in demand.
