I dont think they are necessarily a better team then SU right now. Stewart is a difference maker (but he's not close to a freshman Melo FWIW ... not close). Their offensive spacing and passing is much better, but they dont have much more movement. Being able to utilize Stewart on the switch after that last high screen was huge. Syracuse can't do that because Boeheim likes to have his screeners be guys who can't catch or shoot. On D, i liked the fact they went man on the last possession.
Huh? Can you imagine what Stewart would do to our "bigs"?
Regarding the second bolded point, our bigs are generally unskilled.
