Carolina at Wake Forest game thread on: Tuesday 7 February 2023.

Piss poor press conference on the radio not sure if there’s another one…seemed to be cut short after waiting about 45 minutes
I watched/listened to it. I think HD does pretty well in these PCs, overall. That guy is a straight shooter. He's dealing with some serious adversity. But, that guy is about as engaged and dedicated as you could ever hope to find. I don't know if it's this particular group of kids, or... what. A 3-game losing streak is just bad. It's gotta be tough to be able to get players to be as positive and optimistic as HD is, when they're losing like this.

The people at the PC are definitely going to struggle with it. The fans? Forget about it!

ETA When HD talked about "when you shoot from that half-court, there's nothing else" and how to try and play that way all the time, I get what he's saying. And, he's trying to explain how important it is to block-out the outside noise and distractions. But, he's not a dictator. He can't force them to take his advice. They have to choose to do it. He also cannot force them to have the same passion that he has. HD is a pretty insightful, wise person, imo. I dunno if that means he's a good basketball coach. But, I'm just explaining my take on his comments.

Pretty good comeback. Could have been better, obviously, but not too shabby.
They went down swinging. But, as @notashelbyfan said, if they had played the whole game the way they did the last 4 minutes, they could have won. These guys are just disjointed as hell. If it's some kind of internal issue, then it's going to be even more difficult to have any sort of decent season.
 
Our first half stats:

11-33 33.3% FG%
0-5 0% 3FG%
3-6 50% FT%
20 boards
3 assists
2 steals
3 blocks
7 turnovers

Caleb was 0-9 from the field. Mando had 12 points, no one else had more than 2 points. Just pathetic basketball.
 
Has IDunk checked out tonight?
As nice as it is to be missed and I much as I love Carolina sports 🏀 as I mentioned when I first started this game thread 🧵 today is my wife’s birthday and I took her to see River Dance on tour in Greensboro. There are priorities in life and taking care of the wife is number one on the list.
