To me, Dean Smith only won ONE NCAA Championship

Downtown Freddy Brown throwing the ball straight to James Worthy wasn't exactly "winning", but more like Georgetown losing. Great recruiter & good coach, but sorta like Bobby Cox and the Braves during their run of the 1990's with Glavine, Maddux, Smoltz & Avery, it was kinda hard to lose with all the talent at hand.

That was a strange play. Many of Deans good years were the UCLA years where you played for runner up

The Chris Webber timeout when they had no timeouts also comes to mind, however, I think that play is a bit overblown bc UNC would have likely won regardless.

The comparison to Bobby Cox is not that far off, and even though Smith had to compete with Wooden, UCLA's last championship was in 1975, so he still had over 20+ years after that.

Good Grief.....what a stupid thing to say.....


Jordan hitting a jumper from 18 feet with less than 30 seconds to play is winning. Georgetown still had to hit a shot to win and did not execute.

Bottom line UNC scored more points hit the big shot and won.

The rest is irrelevant.
