And somebody find me the name and number of his personal trainer back home in S.C. that he works with every summer? That ball handling and especially his shot can’t get any worse. That trainer should not be allowed to

These games take years off my life. I bet I’m not the only one.
I agree with all of that except Brooks being bad tonight. I thought he played strong. The first 8 minutes didn’t start well for him but after that, I thought he was in position often.
his last two, actually. First one he went into no mans land under the basket then threw it over the heels bench into the third row. Roy said "why would you do that?"
Next time down he somehow can't do a jump stop and establish a pivot foot without traveling, when all you have to do is run clock, period.
I feel bad for him, but its hard seeing him coming around. He needs to, though, get his head on right, because I bet Roy continues to use him until he plays poorly again and Roy gives him the early hook
Yeah, the travel the next possession! The Gaels had surrendered by then, so it's even more strange.
its alright. I think I'd rather have these guys get back out there vs. waiting around all day on Sunday. The times I hate the most are like 11:00 central or after 8:30 central. Midday should be fine for these guys.
Trainers do NOT create talent. They help individuals improve, in the ways that the individuals can actually improve...
In the second half, we scored on our first 6 posessions, and 11 of first 13. Quite a nice run and momentum swing.
A breath of air in a sea of insanity. Didn’t get on the game thread until after the game was over because I knew we would be cannibalizing the team and the staff. Man, some of you are cray cray.
There were a few games similar to ours yesterday, it routinely happens in the first round that the 13-16 seeded teams play loose while the higher seeded teams come out tight. Usually the higher seed takes control eventually.
This was a good wake up call for the team.
I agree 100% but his handle and shot have gotten a million times worse over the course of a few summers, especially that shot? He reminds me of the kid for the 76ers with all those issues.
Good call on Nas. He was a man amongst boys last night; ended up with 19 pts in 17 minutes.
Thanks man... I figured this was the perfect game and type of team for him to show out a little bit. I figured this was the perfect game and type of team for him to show out a little bit. I am honestly a bit surprised that he didn’t get more minutes, I don’t quite know what to think about that. I believe he legitimately could have gotten to the rim whenever he wanted to last night and if he would’ve played 25 or so minutes, might of had 30 and 10. I don’t think he really played a whole lot on the perimeter offensively, which allowed him to show off his strength and athleticism.

His handle has axtuallybgotten tighter and improved... that jumper though... he needs to work with hubert davis and get rid of that hitch in it
Looking back on this thread you would think some of the guys on here had never watched an NCAA tournament game before. Its not uncommon for the 16 seed to come out firing and blow their load early. Then once halftime hits the adrenaline goes away and they start realizing theyre a 16 seed for a reason
I also changed TVs and shirts at halftime. Reading this thread after the fact is hilarious. Way to pull together Heels!
Props to @uncboy10 for rallying the troops. It was obvious our combined effort led the Heels to victory!
And of course @Archer2 has to start all the NCAAT game threads early on game day now too.
