Jack White was never the same, and his launching of so many three pointers in that one game had to do with Tre and Cam being sidelined unexpectedly. And of course, it didn't help that Zion had his shoe explosion and that Cam had various issues later either.
My hunch is this team, with just normal luck on injuries, etc, was far far superior to any other team in the country. That they had so many problems, and yet were only one hoop from the Final Four, would lend credibility to that argument.
