Clemson vs UNC game thread Wednesday 30 Dec

[IDUNK4HEELS]

37-30 at the half as Brice having a rough first half fouls with less than 2 seconds to go. Carolina misses Meeks wide frame right now as Clemson are beating up Johnson and Hicks down low. Berry and Jackson lead the attack for the good guys.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

UNC played a pretty good half and if not for two bank in threes by Clemson the game would be well in hand. The Tigers are in foul trouble so continue to pound the paint.

 

[coryfly]

Awesome. Good stuff, Brice.

 

[Spaceytoyz]

Johnson's an Idiot lol

 

[HEELS1984]

They've made how many garbage buckets

 

[coryfly]

C'mon, James.

Another banked in luck shot for CU. Then Hicks just throws the damn thing OOB.

Terrible start and end to the first half and terrible start to the second half.

 

[berens007]

The slop will just not end

 

[HEELS1984]

Pinson playing well!

 

[coryfly]

Great finish from Hicks.

 

[HEELS1984]

Great and 1 for Hicks!

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Pinson instant offense after Brice sits with three fouls...47-36

 

[coryfly]

Great steal and decision from Berry there.

 

[Littlejon]

Nice 3 by Paige after the steal. 14 point lead.

 

[HEELS1984]

Paige!!! Nice run for the Heels!

 

[Spaceytoyz]

I like Pinson because he is playing street ball and just on instincts win some lose some with that style but at least it shows a pulse..

 

[strummingram]

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

50-36 after Paige buries a wide open three on a three on two break at the Tigers call time. Pinson ' s energy early in this half has sparked the run...

 

[berens007]

Now we are talking!

 

[toophly1124]

Pinson's a special player when he's under control ...hicks can own these clowns if he keeps playing aggressive ..

 

[coryfly]

Yeah, Pinson has been great.

 

[coryfly]

Man, they are money from the FT line.

 

[coryfly]

That is where Hicks doesn't cut it. He is just not a good rebounder at all.

From 14 to maybe 8 here as our defense is struggling with this lineup.

 

[berens007]

Man, they are money from the FT line.

Nice jinx

 

[coryfly]

Clemson went to sleep and a nice find from Berry. Love that Hicks tries to stuff everything and his FT shooting is great. Just wish he could rebound the ball so we could leave him as the only big when we need to.

 

[coryfly]

That was a clean block. Guards getting eaten up on the other end now. Brice continues to struggle. Go up and dunk that.

There you go! Call the foul ref. He got pushed. Maybe that gets him going.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Johnson back in the game with a monster dunk forces a 5 second count 55-44

 

[coryfly]

Love Hicks putting it on the floor.

 

[berens007]

two bad TOs this half by Britt - good d on the other end and finally they miss their prayer at the buzzer - not by much

 

[HEELS1984]

Love the way Hicks is playing! Think he has realized how good he is

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Clemson spreading the court so they can go one on one. Hicks playing like Johnson normally does is he is in double digits going hard to the hole. Nice that others are stepping up so that Paige does not have to play so many minutes carrying the team on his back

 

[coryfly]

I like Britt shooting but not when he has it contested. Just isn't tall enough.

 

[strummingram]

Britt has 3 TO's

 

[coryfly]

Get Nate out of the game. Go with just one PG or something if Berry needs a break.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

James in the score sheet with ft and a rebound. Britt having a rough night holding on to the ball 60-47

 

[berens007]

get berry in the game!

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Johnson not scoring but he is still helping big time on the boards.

 

[coryfly]

Brice just got hammered in the back crossing the lane. That is one reason he has been so frustrated.

C'mon, James. What the hell. How can that even happen before he is even close to shooting.

Ball don't lie.

 

[imajericho]

Please stop playing James. I am going bald from all the hair I am tearing out.

 

[coryfly]

Nice job by Brice hitting Jackson right where he could shoot in rhythm.

Another shitty call to put them at the line.

 

[coryfly]

Goodness, Brice. How many terrible turnovers do we have tonight.

Then another weak call. Call that crap on the other end.
