[IDUNK4HEELS]

Another high noon showdown with a hurricane in town

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Looks like ESPN 2 will carry the game

 

[sctarheel30]

Let’s go Heels

 

[mikeirbyusa]

No Francis.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

No idea of the playing status of Cole, Francis and Brob

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Thanks for the update Mikey

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Starters for Carolina are: BRob, Platek, Bacot, Brooks and Black

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Brooks ties the game with a short jumper 2-2

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Brooks a short hook 4-2

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Nice defense causes a shot clock turnover

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Both teams cold to start the game

 

[TarHeelMark]

No Francis.

Sore knee again?

 

[TarHeelMark]

Not sure why the Canes are so quick to get back downcourt, leaving us to get easy rebounds, since we haven't proven to be a typical UNC running team.

 

[sctarheel30]

No Francis.

Man will he ever be able to play

 

[strummingram]

Man oh, man... this team struggles to score. They pass it around like "I don't want it! YOU TAKE IT!" No one with any confidence to shoot. Brooks is the only player worth a damn.

Bacot seems to be regressing.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

First tv timeout 4-2 for the Heels as both teams are coming up empty on their 3 point attempts. Miami is also short handed on players so they are smartly playing a zone forcing Carolina to hit from the outside

 

[strummingram]

Man will he ever be able to play

Not likely. Kids with damaged legs like him... I doubt he ever contributes very much. Same with Harris. Cars with busted axles aren't very good race cars.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

BRob a short jumper 6-2

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Platek BOOM from the right 9-2

 

[strummingram]

We ALWAYS get Corey Alexander as the announcer!

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Miller hits his second shot 9-4

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Bacot a tip on 11-4

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Bacot over the back his first foul

 

[sctarheel30]

Not likely. Kids with damaged legs like him... I doubt he ever contributes very much. Same with Harris. Cars with busted axles aren't very good race cars.

Hmmmm ok

 

[strummingram]

Miami is a really bad team!

 

[TarHeelMark]

We ALWAYS get Corey Alexander as the announcer!

No kidding. He's probably thinking the same thing... why am I stuck with these no-shooting mofos every game.

And Nothing against him, he's not bad, but a little variety would be nice.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Bacot a short jumper 13-4

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Keeling and Pierce are you first subs off the bench. Tv timeout with the score 13-4

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Keeling a tap in 15-4

 

[strummingram]

Yeah... Miami is really bad

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Keeling a steal and a hoop 17-4

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

The Bank is open for Miami 17-6

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Baby Jet now in

 

[TarHeelMark]

Yeah... Miami is really bad

Somehow they beat Clemson and Pittsburgh, and took FSU to overtime. But they look way worse than us.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

BRob a corner fade away and a Pierce tip in 21-7

 

[TarHeelMark]

Pierce is starting to show some consistently good play.

 

[Tru Blu Tar Heel]

Gotta like the energy at least so far.

 

[strummingram]

No reason to lose this game...

This is their best chance to get a win

 

[TarHeelMark]

I DONT EVEN WANNA HEAR ABOUT ANY TEAM WE PLAY BEING SHORT- HANDED.

 

[strummingram]

Somehow they beat Clemson and Pittsburgh, and took FSU to overtime. But they look way worse than us.

I still can't believe we lost to Clemson. That deer-in-the-headlights final 2 minutes was inexcusable.
