Alabama vs Carolina sweet 16 game thread on Thursday 28 March 2024 in LA

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Sears from 35 feet but Withers a rebound and basket 21-17

 

[al would]

leave EC in hub

 

[sctarheel30]

On pace for both teams going over 100 it seems

 

[Ozheelfan]

leave EC in hub

The offense is totally stuck without him

 

[DaveChapelle]

Wow sears from waaaay downtown

Washington trying to close out on perimeter shooters is already a struggle, but that shot was super deep

 

[DaveChapelle]

I'd like to see more post touches

 

[Heelicious]

cannot leave their 3 shooters. If sears is going to make them from 26 feet what can you do. Can’t have any sloppy turnovers either.

 

[NathanFielder]

Washington trying to close out on perimeter shooters is already a struggle, but that shot was super deep

Can’t zone on defensive in bounds underneath the basket against this team. They can just easily get a matchup and a good shot.

 

[NathanFielder]

Lol, Trimble/Cadeau 3/3 from 3. You don’t play this game on paper.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Trimble BOOM again Pringle a layup and Bacot dunk then Sears a short shot from the baseline 26-21

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Green a three then Cadeau misses a bunny 26-24

 

[NathanFielder]

I guess we’re just going to ignore Bacot inside all game.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Estrada s hook ties the game 26-26

 

[sctarheel30]

A game of runs and now a stupid pass

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Sears a three and Cadeau BOOM again 29-29

 

[sctarheel30]

Of course he's going to shoot it good I took him and under 7.5.

There goes that one

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Griffin on the line gets one then Trimble gets a chance at the line and he nets two 31-30

 

[sctarheel30]

No easy baskets

 

[sctarheel30]

Already not liking sears

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Sears drives and scores putting Bama back up by one

 

[DaveChapelle]

Keep attacking the rim. Put Bacot back in and feed him.

 

[Heelicious]

Man need to go back to bacot and rj.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Got to find a way to get some stops

 

[NathanFielder]

Good game. Sears has showed up. Will probably need RJ to if UNC wants to win this one.

 

[DaveChapelle]

Elliot drilling jumpers, but missing that layup.

This game is bizarre.

 

[Ozheelfan]

Cadeau’s fast break pass to Trimble - wow! For all the posters on here who doubt the effect he’s had on this team, just watch what happens when he’s on the floor.

 

[Rabidfrog]

We can play better defense… we are not perfectly in synch yet

Not sure how much better our offense gets… EC dropping 30 points would be hysterical

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Need Ingram and Ryan to help with the scoring

 

[Heelicious]

Got to find a way to get some stops

Our defense denying passes and drives is not good enough. They are getting too many offensive rebounds too.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Sears again on a lay up 34-31

 

[NathanFielder]

Fellas… Mark Sears is left handed and I’m sure he’ll remain that way for the rest of this game.

 

[strummingram]

UNC absolutely CANNOT have these turnovers

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Awful turnovers and another miss layup as Estrada scores again 36-31

 

[DaveChapelle]

RJ missing shots and turning the ball over.

Wojcik in for Cadeau

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Finally a big shot as Ryan BOOM. But Griffin hits another three 39-34

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Thank you Ryan BOOM 39-37

 

[sctarheel30]

Heels getting it run down their throats

 

[sctarheel30]

Went to a basketball game and a track meet broke out

 

[DaveChapelle]

Our bigs need to start hedging to allow the guards to recover on shooters.

Drop coverage isn't going to work.

 

[Heelicious]

Of course Alabama can’t miss. Have to just get good offense and hope Alabama cools off
