Let’s get this out of the way. Virginia is a very good team. They dismantled Louisville at the Yum! Center by 16 a couple days before coming to the Pete. They’ve been playing some of their best basketball in the past week. So losing to the Hoos, even by double-digits should not have been a stunner.
The Cavs even acknowledged that they have been getting into a groove.
“I think it’s fun to watch,” Bennett said, “when you share the ball and guys move it and they make the next pass. … They’re playing, in my opinion, the right way, the way that gives us the best chance to be as good as we can, when we’re that unselfish, on both ends, defensively kind of playing for each other, and offensively.
