Mike DeCourcy of the SportingNews.com feels that the most intriguing element of tomorrows' Kentucky/North Carolina game will be the Tar Heels' defense against John Wall. Here is an excerpt of DeCourcy's article:
The most intriguing element of Saturday's North Carolina vs. Kentucky matchup is how the Tar Heels will choose to defend super freshman John Wall. Simply put: Will Marcus Ginyard get the call on Wall?
With help from his teammates, Ginyard unsettled All-American candidate Evan Turner of Ohio State, who committed 10 turnovers. Against Michigan State, Ginyard took turns shutting down Durrell Summers and Kalin Lucas.
Wall would be his most severe test. Wall is the most dynamic athlete at point guard since—well, only since Derrick Rose. But the two of them are the best athletes ever to play the position.
It'd be surprising, though, if Ginyard starts on Wall. If the Heels make such a major matchup change and it doesn't work early, that would throw their entire game plan out of whack.
