North Carolina Basketball

Was this the best team of the last 20 years? They ran through the tournament like noone else has ever done. Is this a case of being one of the best teams ever or was it just a weak year for the rest of college basketball?

Going back 20 years? Probably quite a few teams! For starters I'll go with Carolina 05.

Larry Johnson's JR year at UNLV get's my vote as the best in the last 20 years.

UNLV in 1990 was better.

I think its pretty hard to argue against this team as one of the best in the last 20 years. 05 Carolina...maybe. That would be a fun comparison, especially since its a brand new completely different team. Nobody left from the previous years.

I think Lawson>Felton and Hansbrough=May
Ellington=McCants
Thompson<J. Williams
Green>J. Manuel


Both teams had great bench play, but I think 05 probably had a better bench just due to Marvin Williams. That would make for a great game. I have 09 having a better lineup, but 05 a stronger bench.

I will take my 92 Devils over alot of teams including this one. This Carolina team was very very good. Ty Lawson only comes along once every often. When you have a guy like that it makes things so much easier. Look at Duke the last 4 years point guard = crap. 1990 UNLV was very good, however the best of all might have been 1996 Kentucky, that was one hell of a squad.
