I was mixed on wanting Love to return to the Cheats. Part of me was worried that if he stayed he would become the guy whom put up huge numbers against Duke. The other part of me thought that if he left UNC they would be screwed because they would have to start over with a PG. But part of that part of me thought but what if the new person is a better fit for Roy and his scandalous system. But as the kids like to say ball don't lie. Aside from a gaudy FT% of 81% what else did Love excel at?
In the end, it comes down to Love not being a PG and Roy needs a PG for his system to really excel. And that is not Love. Roy's system can go with a scoring PG but Love is really a SG trying to play PG for an NBA audition. It is not a good fit and IMHO it is why his stat line was turrible and there was chemistry issues. The UNC bigs could not get a decent entry pass from Love all season. Could Love put it altogether and be All-ACC? Crazier things have happened. But Love needs to not only work on his offensive consistency but also on being a PG for Roy and his not NBA audition conducive offense. I don't know if that is feasible. I think Roy and Love are both stuck in between a rock and hard place and decided to run it back together. But that doesn't mean that the issues have or will be addressed for next season.
