I disagree.

I say two words why we lost

Ty Lawson

If he doesn't play, I think we win.

I think the reason LSU lost is not Ty Lawson's points but ed davis' rebounds. UNC wasn't having a problem scoring without Lawson in the game, they were having a tough time keeping LSU off the glass. Ed Davis plays 25 min, get 9pts and 6 defensive rebounds which basically shut down LSU's offense.

Lawson doesn't get those points if Davis/Hanbrough don't get 15 rebounds. LSU out rebounded UNC 31-29 but UNC got some really big rebounds that started their fast break and gave Lawson the opportunity to make plays.

As far as Lawson, the two big threes he hit early in the second half were by far the biggest contribution in the scoring column. One of them halted the run LSU was on to start the second half.
