NC State at UNC-Tuesday 24 Feb 2015 game thread

Nobody can shoot, so Moo plays D merely to contain.
 
Damn it. Joel takes a pass headed to a wide open Paige. Somehow even the good plays get screwed up.

Why do we using James as our go to scorer?

Worst offensive half of basketball of the year I think.

Great coaching Job By State in this one hope it does not hold up but so far advantage Pack
I don't know about that. They just dribble around and then shoot it, making one now and then.

WTH Hicks?
still feel that way?lol

Jackson is shooting as if he just learned the game.

It seems to me that the team plays dumber, less aware, D when Joel James is in the game for more than 2 minutes.

I guess you missed the Ga Tech game a few days ago?
 
sorry that was incredible coaching by state The Ball forced to everyone you didnt want to shoot the ball and it came up aces for them..
 
Possibly the worst half of basketball in the Roy Williams era. Absolutely pathetic by coach and players.
 
Absolute joke of a half. Everyone guaranteeing a victory against Dook in a week and a half just because we're at the dome needs to watch this one closely. Two well played games in a row is about the limit for these guys, then the lack of consistent effort, consistent intelligence, and of plain old ability to get the ball in the basket at times returns unfortunately
 
One of the worst halves I've seen a Carolina team play ever! By laws of statistics we will have a better second. Not sure why but we look almost bored out there. Roy better light a fire in the locker room.
 
The Basketball IQ is the problem with this team, James gets it in the paint, Paige is uncovered to his left for a three but he challenges a superior player and misses...there is a reason some of these guys have the available shots because they are bad shooters and State is denying the only good one...
 
It's not like State is playing amazingly well... Just UNC is playing amazingly poor.
 
NO 2nd chance points! Killing us on the boards, got to dig down and find something quick. Our front line is being out played-out hustled-out worked.

Berry looked very slow and sluggish, still sick?

I don't know why anyone would be. Like I said in the other thread, if we lose by less than 10 I would be surprised.
 
I will not be able to tolerate listening to those cow pucks tomorrow if they lose. I want the pissed because we won. I love their excuses they give for our wins

We missed shots down low we usually make.

We took dumber shots than we have been taking.

Paige has zero attempts.

We aren't rebojnding worth a damn.

A few careless turnovers.

Other er than that, we look pretty bad.
 
29-18 at the half and that is not a misprint. State has come in with a game play and they are going a tremendous job in executing it. They are using almost the entire game clock before taking a shot and they are getting a bunch of extra shots because they have 8 offensive rebounds. Neither Meeks, Johnson, James, Hicks or James can make a shot in close.

Jackson is taking way too many shots but since Paige, and Tokoto seem to be missing in action he has no choice. No sugar coating the obvious by the State guards are winning the war against the Carolina guards. Neither Paige, Britt or Berry have been able to slow down Barber and Lacey is just embarrashing who ever is trying to cover him.

The Wolfpack is controlling the Tiempo and for UNC to get back in the game they have to find a way to get some stops and a way to speed the game up.
 
We're being out-efforted . . funny how Roy called out the Dean Dome crowd for intensity and he let's this team get away with that effort in the first half.


Oh well . .
 
The one thing I always hate when playing State is the win/loss law of averages.
 
Luckily, State has missed a lot of shots. Heh 18 points, not so sure they came to play tonight. Maybe they will pick it up in the 2nd...
