Parker was four of seven when covered by other Cavaliers. While Parker got his points, it took a lot of shots to do so.
Perhaps not realizing that Parker was second in ACC Player of the Year voting, Mitchell said Parker is “going to be a hell of a player.” Well, yeah, most think he already is.
The Cavaliers may get an NCAA seeding to play in Raleigh but an obviously confused Mitchell thought he already was in Raleigh.
When asked about the crowd support in the championship game, Mitchell said “It’s like we’re back in Charlottesville. To play Duke here in Raleigh you’d never imagine this. Being from North Carolina, being from Charlotte, this means everything to me.”
Ok, maybe he was just so excited that he didn’t know what he said or else he’s looking forward to the prospects of playing in Raleigh in the NCAA tournament. Fan support won’t be as great as it was in Greensboro for the ACC tournament – unless they’re playing Duke again.
