NC State at Carolina game thread on: Wednesday 19 February 2025

[DaveChapelle]

Lubin is just terrible on defense

 

[DaveChapelle]

Lubin is better on offense lol

 

[notashelbyfan]

I have noticed this game we have made a big time effort to get the ball up the floor quick and score before state can get set.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Taylor another three and Taylor another bomb and a layup but Lubin continues his strong second hal with another dunk off a great pass from Davis

 

[DaveChapelle]

Well at least one thing has stayed the same Elliott keeps fouling this game too

First foul was a bad call from the refs

Second foul was a legit contest to stop a basket

Third foul was just him putting 2 hands on the ball handler... that's the foul he simply has to avoid

 

[DaveChapelle]

Both Lubin and Withers have been leaving shooters wide open.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Davis held by McConnell at the first tv timeout

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Middlebrooks a no show so far

 

[DaveChapelle]

Not a good 2nd half for UNC so far.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Parker at the line drops two 67-45

 

[DaveChapelle]

I don't like our defensive effort in the 2nd half at all. We're letting State shoot an insane %.

We're coasting instead of putting our foot on their necks.

Like I said he’s consistent

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Davis another layup but State shooting 80 percent this half scores again but Jackson BOOM followed by a Huntly-Hatfield score in close

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Have to draw blood or have a bone broken to get a foul called

 

[big_deez]

EC?

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Good to get Cadeau back in because the offense with him riding the bench has not been sharp this half

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Jackson high off the glass scoree 74-49

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Jackson goes to the line and he connects on bothn76-49

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Heard fouled and at the line he gets one 76-52

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Trimble scores in the paint 78-52

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Taylor another jumper 78-54

 

[DaveChapelle]

Withers takes a long contested 3 and flops. LOL

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Davis living at the line in this contest nets two more 80-54

 

[keysersosay#1]

I get tired of watching us get pummeled going to the hoop, wind up on the floor and no fouls called. It happens all the time no matter who we play. Meanwhile, touch foul u...in Derm, as usual gets the touchies.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Lubin gets a chance from the stripe and bails two 82-54

 

[DaveChapelle]

That's not a goaltend!

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Styles quiet most of the night gets three back

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Styles a long three 82-60

 

[DaveChapelle]

Styles has been busting Withers' butt in the 2nd half

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Powell misses two from the line

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Trimble a break away from Cadeau but O’Neal responds. Then Cadeau splits 2,fts the Oneal hits a three and Davis another layup and a Lubin and Powell dunks matched by another O’Neal hoop

 

[DaveChapelle]

I like how when Drake checked back in, he immediately D'ed up Styles tough and knocked the ball away. None of that soft stuff Withers has been giving in the 2nd half. Drake is playing hard.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Trimble hits 2 fts 93-67

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

McNeil having a good second half gets one ftv93-68

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Two awful late turnovers

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

O’Connell drills 2 from the line 93-73

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Brown from Cadeau a dunk 95-73

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Brown again from Cadeau for another dunk 97-73

 

[DaveChapelle]

Brown from Cadeau a dunk 95-73

That wasn't a dunk.

But that last bucket by Brown definitely was

 

[tarwhiz]

Middlebrooks a no show so far

He has no skill. I like his blue collar play, but there is a reason he is the starting 5 on a ten win team.
They go hand in hand.
He should be the 4th big on a really good team
