This Andy Katz article has a bunch of juicy nuggets. It’s about how the three Wake Forest and two UNC players are getting along while trying out for the national junior team.
Evidently, just before Katz published it, Rashad McCants was cut from the team. A pretty surprising cut, don’t you think? Justin Gray is still on the team and they play the same position, but McCants does it better. I can’t imagine that he’d be cut for any reason other than his attitude. I guess all those fluff pieces about how he’d “figured it out” were just that, fluff.
One quote I liked in there was by Gray about how funny it is that the Deacons were getting along so well with the Tar Heels. “It would be tougher if there was a Duke guy,” Gray said. Hmm, I guess that’s even more proof that Duke is the king of the conference now. They’re now the team people hate, not Carolina. Wonder if that’ll change soon?
OK, now for the biggie. For this one, I’ll just pull straight from the article:
McCants has been running the wing next to Paul plenty, too.
“He’s the best point guard I’ve played with by far, by far,” McCants said.
Better than North Carolina’s Raymond Felton?
“He’s a better point guard,” McCants said. “Raymond is more talented. But taking nothing away from Ray, Chris Paul is really talented, too.”
Wow. Wow! You play in the backcourt with Raymond Felton and yet you say that another player, a rival player no less, is a better point guard? Wow! Does McCants have any idea how to get along with others? I can’t imagine that sentiment is going over well in Chapel Hill.
Wow.
