Carolina vs UCLA game thread on Saturday 21 December

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Which team for UNC will show up in the first half and more importantly who will step up in the Big Apple and rebound?

 

[What Would Jesus Do?]

CBS announcer says Cronin is 0-3 against UNC.

Our team has something to prove. Their coach has something to prove.

 

[What Would Jesus Do?]

Four of UCLA's starters came through the portal this year. Among starters, only Dylan Andrews was at UCLA last year.

Two their benchers are also transfers this year.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Either Trimble or Cadeau need to score some points today or Jackson will get a bunch of their playing time especially since he will be playing close to home

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

This is also basically a home game for R J Davis

 

[al would]

Bill Raftery ... just when ya thought it couldn't get worse

 

[Oak ridger]

Who would have ever thought that UNC football would be what folks are talking abount instead of basketball.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Davis, Trimble, Cadeau, Powell and Lubin start

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Powell a tear drop in the lane gives Carolina the early lead but the Bruins counter with two long threes 6-2

 

[TarHeelFanJ]

9-2 UCLA…another slow start

 

[DaveChapelle]

Lubin loses his man twice and he hits 2 3s.

Lubin benched for Claude. Claude immediately gives up an and-one.

There's your 9 points for UCLA

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

A three point play for the UCLA center but Cadeau gets a ft 9-3

 

[TarHeelFanJ]

9-9 after back to back threes from RJ and Captain Jack

 

[al would]

11-9 UCLA at the TV TO

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Davis BOOM from straight out then Captain Jack a corner bomb but The Bruins center hits a short turnaround and at the tv break UCLA leads 11-9. Maybe put Withers in to cover the 6’9 Bruin center who has all of their points so far.

 

[dtodd4475]

UCLA has 1 big man, and he is eating what and whenever he wants on our bigs.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Withers post up and scores and ties the game 11-11

 

[DaveChapelle]

Withers with an uncalled goal tend and a turnover on back to back possessions

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

A short UCLA jumper puts them up 13-11

 

[DaveChapelle]

Another turnover on Withers

 

[DaveChapelle]

Withers benched

 

[DaveChapelle]

Turnover Tyson

 

[DaveChapelle]

Turnover Trimble

 

[TarHeelFanJ]

Tyson hits a 3 but heel was on the line

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Davis a short jumper but goal tending Powell . Washington and Tyson are now in. Washington a block

 

[What Would Jesus Do?]

This is in the bag, boyz. We're keeping it close in the first half and we always win the second half against top teams.

 

[dtodd4475]

Can they go back and take the goaltend bucket away ?

 

[DaveChapelle]

Tyson hits a 3 but heel was on the line

AKA a turnover. Our front court is hurting us so much.

 

[Spaceytoyz]

At this Height this team needs to play mistake free and they don’t

Plus you factor in basketball IQ on a few guys and it’s an uphill battle

 

[DaveChapelle]

Can they go back and take the goaltend bucket away ?

No. The refs have to call it on the floor.

 

[tarwhiz]

Can they go back and take the goaltend bucket away ?

I thought they could. Not sure why they didn't

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Mack a three and Clark follows with another 21-13

 

[DaveChapelle]

Washington turnover results in UCLA 3

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Washington at the line drops one 21-14

 

[DaveChapelle]

Trimble seems checked out.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Lots of turnovers today

 

[DaveChapelle]

Washington at the line drops one 21-14

The greatest big man shooter Hubert's ever seen

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Another Cadeau turnover leads to another Bruin break out and basket 23-14

 

[notashelbyfan]

I think we are getting worse.

 

[DaveChapelle]

Lots of turnovers today

Yup. Withers, Washington, Tyson, Powell, Trimble, Cadeau
