How important was Leaky Black to the Iron Five? How did you feel when he left the NC State game at Raleigh with a knee injury? How did you feel when he came back in time for the overtime when over Syracuse?
I have gone into detail about how Leaky’s defense has become a force multiplier for UNC’s team this season. He doesn’t need to score 20 ppg if he’s limiting the opposing team’s top scorer to half their season average. The end result is the same for team’s +/- and it has the added bonus of disrupting a team’s rhythm.
