Well, that was good, right? The Tar Heels took care of Mount St. Mary's in Raleigh Friday, 113-74. It was a game this team needed, I think. After playing without Ty Lawson for several weeks, and a less-than-100 percent Ty Lawson for the last two, it was nice to see the regular rotation healthy and gunning. Lawson had 21 tonight, to go with Tyler Hansbrough's 21! It was great to see this team get up and down the floor like it did. I'm not going to go crazy about a win over a 16-seed, but the team looked good. Legs were fresh, and shots were falling (save for Danny Green). Some other thoughts:
•It certainly appears that Ty Lawson worked on his jumper during his injury time. It looks great.
•Love Tyler's range extending to 18 feet or so.
•The alley oop to Surry Wood was beautiful, and it felt like one that thousands of suburban North Carolina kids have dreamed about in their driveways for years. I know one that played that out, complete with Woody's call, on Pine Needles road in Goldsboro.
•Danny Green's shot was off, but he'll play through it.
•Ellington's shots were pretty, weren't they?
•Will Graves is expanding his game, from the arc in.
Don't know who's next, but the Tar Heels have hit the dance running.
