Miraculous recovery

lol…dook focused on stopping RJ…5-14…17 points. That opens things up for Mando and Ingram. They delivered a double double-double.
It was a little bit of sarcasm in my post if you couldn't tell. Point being, Bacot did what we know he can do and it actually helped. People always ask who is going to step up when RJ is not scoring 20+, Ingram and bacot both stepped up. Also, Bacot still had 10 rebounds even with Ingram getting 13 of them!

Bacot is alive and well! Undisclosed injury seems fully healed! Great news for Tar Heel basketball!
Oh I totally get your sarcasm. Just wait, if we lose another game the excuse will be Bacot severely re-injured his ‘Ankle Ligaments’ in this dook game.

Yep.. if Bacot can get 10 rebounds with Ingram getting 13, there are not excuses.. we have seen against Duke what Bacot can do no matter who else is scoring. I'm tired of the excuses about bacot doing the dirty work and that's why his scoring and rebounding is down. NO! That's not why. He hasn't played with the fire and intensity like he used to until this Duke game. Now maybe people will quit making bs excuses up.
 
Thanks for reminding me. I need to go find that dumbass' quote.
Yeah Also see if you can find the reason WHY he got his ashh chewed out by Coach Davis; that alone should help put that “dumbass quote” in context unlike what you are trying to do here.

Listen, If you want someone to pay you millions of dollars to play basketball It should not take a dook game for you to show how special you are! He did his thang last night…Armando style! If he had played that way in the GT game we win easily imo.

Hey I’m not the enemy guys I really really want him to do well! But if me saying “Young gone take his lunch money”, if he doesn’t play better…if that quote somehow played a role in the game he had last nigh…So Be It! Now stop reaching and enjoy the Victory!
Oh yeah, and no more injury conspiracies after loses…Armando is not in a wheelchair! He’s gd! :)

I find it ironic that some UNC fans seem more willing to accept that Bacot is a lazy poor teammates that no longer cares than to even consider the kid may have some lingering injury issues that at times has him playing in more pain that he lets be known. That is just as true before this game as it is now after.

I'm talking about TarHeelWV and the his new clown sidekick who just joined the party
Lol you're the idiot who sticks up for the people who said he has an undisclosed injury.. no he's been a lazy player since after the first 2 games of the season. Hubert straight up said he never told Bacot to take the backseat. So yeah, you're the clown. Bacot proved last night there's nothing wrong with him.

Bro why you so upset with eyeballs popping out calling people clowns? SMH. Stop letting people typing on keyboard bar-b-que your soul like that! Hell you want to be madd at someone be madd at Head Coach Hubert Davis he’s the one who chewed him a new arshhole!
 
Hullo Arch’ good to see you mate
Thanks buddy. Between the NIL, the portal, and the breaking up of traditional conferences, I’ve lost much of my interest in sports but I still lurk and post occasionally. Haven’t watched hardly any games, just catch the highlights. Nice to see “Carolina basketball” being played again.

First, why get upset at Flaheel over a thought I advanced? You disagree with anything I said fine, agreement is not mandatory, it was me, not Flaheel or anyone else, it was me discussing that I felt Bacot could have an injury that he is not talking about and I still suspect that. You have not once seen me say this was a fact, you have seen me go out of my way to say that it is speculation. I guess you didn't know that Bacot felt a pop in his knee a couple games back and it scared him, by the way that was from Bacot's own mouth. You want to discuss this I will discuss it till the cows come home, in fact be glad to. But there is no reason or need to call people idiots, people you don't know anything about.

Calling people names is what children do on the play ground when they get mad, I want to assume folks that post here are adults with the ability to discuss things they do not agree with but sometimes I really wonder...

No, just assume the guy that has set the all time double double record for UNC, the guy that has played with his heart and soul out front for everyone to see has all the sudden become a lazy player, yeah, that makes so much more sense... Kid dislocates his hip as a freshman and does not miss a single game, lazy, kid ends up the last 2 seasons on crutches but he is lazy? That you can accept but how dare anyone suggest the kid may be dealing with an injury and you start looking for tin hats?
I find it comical now days how easily folks go from disagreeing with anything to SCREAMING out CONSPIRICY THEROY MOST LIKELY STARTED BY WHITE SUREMISTS THAT ARE INSURRECTIONISTS! LOL I guess they feel that if they can not discuss the message they have to destroy the messenger, sure is a lot of that these days.

Uhhh cause he replied to me and said my new clown sidekick.. I do not know that guy but he seems to have pretty good common sense. Flaheel said the word clown first so are you referring to him saying the word clown first or what?? I called him an Idiot after he was referencing the word clown. There's a famous saying in life.. don't want none, don't start none.

I understand Bacot felt a pop in his knee but if you're hurt, either you wouldn't continue playing on it, or there would be an obvious limp. I never seen a limp.

All I've seen is no effort.

2 things, first I want to be sure that I am not putting words in your mouth, do you equate effort to production? IN other words, if you look at a box score where bacot scores 4pts and pulls down 3 boards does that equate to a less than should be effort game from the guy? I have watched this with Bacot since well before the Ky game to see if I saw anything that may be injury related. I do see things that make me continue to look. For me, I think Bacot has had 2 what I would consider bad nights, 1 vs GT and the Ky game. The games leading up to that GT game, especially the game before GT, who was it Lville maybe? His box score was not good but Bacot actually had a really solid game yet he scored and boarded very little. My point is that box score does not reflect effort, I want to be sure that not what you are referring to saying he has been playing with a lack of effort.

I don't agree with the lack of effort tag, I don't agree with it at all but that is just my opinion, it is my opinion but I have shared information that should not be dismissed out of hand. Having watched this kid for now 4.5 seasons there are many things I could critique him for but effort isn't one, again, as I say in my disclaimer, my opinion.

Second thing, I can tell you this for a fact, a player knows his body and he knows when something isn't right. Bacot feels a pop and it scares him he is going to be ginger with it, simple human reaction to something your body does that you know is not how it should be. Anyone that has ever played a sport and dealt with injury understands my saying that and they understand what playing thru pain does to you, they as well understand you don't tell anyone unless it is so bad you have no other choice, you minimize it every chance you get. Think Ryan's ankle is fine now, it isn't, think Ingram's wrist is ok now, it isn't nor will they be before this season ends. I have watched Bacot play thru things that normal folks would be bed ridden over and not show signs of pain, I am not going to question that kid's effort considering what I have watched him do for the last 4.5 seasons. It does baffle me how this kid's effort is being called in question when he has set the record for most double doubles in a career, that is all about effort and it is effort over a long period of time.

And a 3rd for good measure, guys simply do not have it every night, sometimes the tank for what ever reason just is not full, every kid has bad games, every kid has off nights. Just as true is there are some teams you play that you seem to always have a great game against, bacot seems to love to torch duke, all love for him on that! But when that tank is not as full as it has been you work as hard as you can but it just isn't there for ya and it is a awful feeling when that happens, little you can do about it. That doesn't make you a lazy player, it really makes you like everyone else.

I hear you... and admit the changes didn't dampen my enthusiasm so much.... I did boost my enthusiasm by going to a game at DES centre this year.

I get more frustrated by the arguments going on in this thread and the constant player bashing on this board.

And yeah, you're 100% right. Hubert has this team playing Carolina Ball, and he's coaching his backside off.... I was negative on him and the team a year ago, but wow, what a difference 12 months makes!
