NC State at UNC-Tuesday 24 Feb 2015 game thread

[WoadBlue]

Things looking good, and then lousy half court followed by lousy pass for a turn over.

 

[RP12]

These morons have called the wrong name a dozen times at least. Paige plays for the team in white guys.

 

[tarh33ls]

Three guys had open looks at 3 there and passed it up damn it

 

[RP12]

Can't afford Britt alone here.

 

[UNC71-00]

Brice is having a very poor game

 

[coryfly]

Just so many bad play this game.

 

[imajericho]

We are so scared to shoot a 3 pointer it is disgusting.

 

[tarh33ls]

Missing some gimmes here, Jackson was fouled there

 

[TarHeelNation11]

Catching the ball is a momentous task for this team.

On the bright side, we're right in this thing.

So hilariously sad and true

 

[UNC71-00]

Only 4 points and we survived Britt's defense and a couple of turnovers/no calls.

History is on our side if we can keep from killing ourselves.

Yeah, that is a tough one not to get.

 

[RP12]

If Jackson had made a couple wide open shots in the first half we'd be talking about his best game yet. Still could be.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

State still up 45-41 as the refs are letting both teams get away with a bunch of fouls and I mean both teams. Jackson keeping Unc in the game.

Yes he was. No reason this game should be this tight other than moo is playing their usual national championship game and we can't put it together on offense. Too many stupid mistakes, but to be down 4 isn't too bad. Especially since moo tends to brain fart against us in close games.

 

[coryfly]

3 pt shooting is the difference so far.

 

[berens007]

We really hate having a guy on turner

 

[strummingram]

If we just had a 3-point ace, or two.

Seems like it always is.

 

[Littlejon]

Dang if these turnovers don't seem to all come at the absolute worst times.

 

[coryfly]

Seriously? They are going to call that after how loose this game has been called.

 

[TarHeelNation11]

Too many boneheaded plays. It's going to cost us, I'm afraid. Would love to be wrong though

 

[tarh33ls]

Too many loose possessions in a game where State is slowing it down, got to get better looks every time

 

[berens007]

How hard is it to get a shot on a key possession

 

[TarHeelNation11]

Looking like UNC football here. Very comfortable coming back from a big deficit, but once it gets within 1-2 scores, we can't find a way to get it back to a tied game.

It is normal to fear doing that which you know you do terribly.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

48-43 after Berry's second unforces turnover. Only 4 minutes to go and the Heels need some stops. Everytime UNC gets close there is a turnover or a State three

 

[UNC71-00]

This game is above Berrys pay grade.

 

[RP12]

Going to have to get either Paige or Brice going if we're going to win.

 

[Bur-Heel]

Lose this game and we don't win another regular season game!!

 

[coryfly]

Yep, plenty of chances. They have just had too many bad plays up to this point.

Now they are changing the way they call the game in the last part of the game.

 

[geo1464]

can we please at least get a shot up

 

[tarh33ls]

So freaking lucky

 

[coryfly]

Airball with JP just ball watching.

 

[tarh33ls]

My kingdom for one more shooter

 

[berens007]

No one near the rim on their shot which was also open - how is that even possible

 

[WoadBlue]

Moo shoots an air ball from 3, and we have nobody there to catch it.

 

[UNC71-00]

Can we get a stop or can Moo pull a moo?

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

50-46 after a Paige three 2 plus minutes to go

 

[WoadBlue]

Bonner with the obvious: UNC runs the fast brwak much better than it runs half court offense.
