up and down and back up
For a long time it’s been my biggest bone of complaint about basketball, that there’s no such thing as traveling if you’re driving at the rim. Want to take three, four steps, and stick the ball on your hip or cradle it in your elbow? These may have been literally the precise behaviors that James Naismith intended to leave out of his new indoor game, but in the name of Excitement it makes no difference. Take what you need. Any defender attempting to stop you from doing the single most illegal thing in all of basketball will be called for a foul, so run all you like.
Thanks to the fact that Roy Williams just isn’t even trying anymore, the ACC race is tight like drum, and UVA could realistically win the whole thing or fall out of the top four. Most of the top six has three games left against someone else in the top six. Again – this is how the ACC looks when the basketball world is right and good. And I’ll say it right now, before it sounds like sour grapes: the regular season title is nice, and you can put it on a banner, but it’s not the ACC championship. It’s something you can point to if you don’t win the tournament, but if you do come out with that tourney title, you’ll just about forget whether or not you won the regular season – especially if you didn’t.
And right now, UVA is one of about ten teams that has as good a chance as any other to win the national title. Can’t ask for more than that.
At From Old Virginia you will find impassioned, monumentally biased coverage of ‘Hoos football in the fall, basketball in the winter, baseball and lacrosse in the spring, and everything else when the mood strikes me.
