Carolina vs Duke in the battle of the Blues game thread on: Saturday 3 February 2024 at the Dean Dome…

[DaveChapelle]

I'm nervous about Filipowski vs Washington for the next few minutes while Bacot rests.

 

[DaveChapelle]

Haha, the under 12 and under 8 timeouts on the same possession.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Announcers just mentioned while on the bench getting a breather Bacot spent a lot of time with the trainers…

 

[JDisaheelfan]

Need the O2 tanks out there for Bacot! Need 34 mins from him!

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Trimble and Foster exchange baskets then Cadeau at the line gets two free throws 28-24

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Ryan a steal and a basket and he is fouled 30-24

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Flipowski a terrific fadeaway 30-26

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Cadeau fouled by Roach going to the hole hits one Ft 31/26

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

McCain a nice layup 31-28

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Ingram BOOM from Cadeau 34-28 and Cadeau fouled again on a one on three break right before the last tv break of the first half

 

[JDisaheelfan]

Free throws…4 points left on the court!

 

[gkss]

Let’s get RJ more involved now.

 

[UNC-75]

They sure are letting them play hard.

 

[gauchoheel]

I'm nervous about Filipowski vs Washington for the next few minutes while Bacot rests.

We did well to keep him from getting much. I was worried too.

 

[KinstonNC]

let EC cook!!!

 

[heels05champs]

The bad free throw shooting against GT has carried over to this game so far.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Cadeau back to line rips two 36-28

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Cadeau a floater 38-28

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

McCain a drive and score 38-30

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

McCain a long three 38-33 then Ingram from Franklin Street from Cadeau again followed by hoops from Flipowski and Bacot then. Bacot top in and Duke calls time to set up the last shot of the half

 

[KinstonNC]

Let-EC-COOKkkkk!!!

 

[JDisaheelfan]

McCain is a punk.

 

[KinstonNC]

Davis decoy is with about 25pts by itself!

 

[DaveChapelle]

Come out and play the 2nd half just as hard. Keep attacking the paint.

 

[HeelMac]

Seth and Jay Will are beside themselves.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

45-35 as Carolina has played tremendous defense

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

I could possibly be wrong but I do not remember Duke shooting one free throw. If Valentine was working the game the blue Devils would have shot at least 10 already and Cadeau would have three fouls…

 

[HeelMac]

Coach Davis is NOT getting the respect he deserves in my opinion. This is THE best UNC defensive team I have seen in YEARS.....

 

[KinstonNC]

Next phase: apply traps on made shots like 2nd half fsu game. The dookies will shiii their draws if we do!

 

[sctarheel30]

Second half=RJ time

 

[KinstonNC]

Let EC COOK!!!

 

[UNC-75]

Second half=RJ time

He’s been a decoy leaving others open since they are focused on him. So far he’s not forced it. Good for him

 

[KinstonNC]

Decoy Davis is worth 25pts without scoring any points at all

 

[Geth]

Steel toed boots firmly on throats. That's the halftime talk.

 

[Heels5150]

It seems like dooks game plan is for anyone else to beat them except RJ. We are up 10 points and RJ only has 4 points. We are in a great position. Roach is the only one that really was aggressive with results

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Bacot a put back 47-35

 

[KinstonNC]

Keep Flip out high and force him into his beloved 20bounce dribble…lol. I swear every team in America steal that ball every time!

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Flipowski at the line drains one 47-36

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Ingram another BOOM 50-38 after a McCain drive

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Flipowski a dunk 50-40 and then two straight turnovers
