OOTB Carolina Basketball Discussion Thread

Here`s the thing though. He`s won 3 national championships and has had top 10 classes in the past using that approach. You know how hard headed he is. Try telling him it doesn't work now that Little is on board.

Request from y'all on this thread, @gunslingerdick @TarHeelMark @toophly1124 @tarheel0910 etc.

I have to miss tonight's game because of burying myself in books for my exams this weekend. Can any of y'all provide any thoughts on our performance tonight, after the game is over? I'm taping the game and will watch at a later date, but I freely admit basketball isn't my strong suit. I'd like to know some things to look for when watching the replay. Plus I trust y'alls opinions a lot more than Radar lol.

Thank you, kindly.

I’ll be there in person. So no.
 
I think most of you guys have watched UNC's exhibition games so I'll ask you this... I got Northern Iowa +17 tonight, good bet they stay within 17 of UNC or no? I usually stay the hell away from betting on college basketball because of garbage time fouls but without Berry I think the game will be closer than 17 points, looking for some feedback before I finalize this bet.

Check the gambling thread. But yes, take Northern Iowa. I did.

I’ll direct you here if you’re a degenerate. But you’re in the majority of thinking that +17 is a good bet.
 
It’s just all gravy to me baby. I know it’s a cliche but after a championship the ride the next season is just that much more enjoyable. Can’t wait to check out the Brooks/Huff/Manley combo. Is Jalek the real deal? How has seventh and Kenny progressed? What the hell will Theo do next!?? And baby face Cam..will he go for 20 plus or what!?

I'll take a stab at it if I'm not drunk.

Northern Iowa isn't very good. They were mediocre (at best) last year and they lost their two best players. One of the guys they lost was easily their best and most well-rounded player. He led their team in most areas (pts, rebs, assts, stls, made 3 pointers). They have one returning player that was any kind of an impact player for them. So I anticipate them having a hard time facilitating anything.

So my thoughts on the spread are that with Berry, we're easily 17 points better than them. And even without Berry, we're still 17 points better than them (at home). But you know Roy's gotta Roy. And he'll probably have Sterling Manley playing the point forward at some point "just to see what works". So without Berry and with Roy doing his mad scientist thing with the line ups, if you have to bet it, the smart money is on No. Iowa. But I wouldn't touch that game either way.

It’s just all gravy to me baby. I know it’s a cliche but after a championship the ride the next season is just that much more enjoyable.

Agreed. It's playing with house money. But all that comes crashing down if duke or UK win the title.
 
My biggest worry is that Roy will f**k up any momentum we get with whacky lineups, which is even riskier this year considering much our team is playing in their first college game.

Let me go ahead and kill the suspense. Yes. He will absolutely do that. But he'd have to go pretty deep into the bench with extended minutes for us to be in danger of losing this game.

I'm not much of a gambler, at all. I hate going to the casino and watching money I worked for just disappear. That being said this game is tempting me, what website do you all use?

Website? Who gambles on websites? You need a bookie (most likely named "Gino" or "Doc"). Breaking the law is half the fun.

Plus, I don't know if you're married and if so, what kind of wife you have, but my wife watches the bank account like a hawk. And she rips me up one side and down the other if I lose. And when I win, she wants part of the take. No f*ckin way. I'll take my chances with having my kneecaps broken by Moose and Rocco before I want my wife knowing about my gambling exploits.

I had a buddy that used to but he's a full time fire fighter now and doesn't have the time. My wife doesn't understand the value of a dollar so I watch our account like a hawk and handle all of our finances so she would have no clue. Just went ahead and created an account on Bovada, see if that works. The line moved to UNC -15.5 so I'm staying out of that one.

I'm on UNI with the rest of the crowd, because...

you know Roy's gotta Roy.

We'll be up by 15-20 at some point I have to imagine, but Roy will be tinkering the shit out of this thing... and the final margin will be low double digits, maybe even single digits.

Did you accept the welcome bonus?
 
Man, no Berry and no Johnson isn't good. Two guys we are really going to count on for points.
 
Jalek looks like a natural running the point. Theo and Brooks look good as well. Maye hasn’t attempted a shot and Kenny has missed 2 or 3 fairly wide open 3s.
 
Taking a bunch of threes. Felton had a nice feed to Maye he wasn't ready for. D looks pretty solid. Brooks looks good.
 
Dang, Seventh made a jump shot.

We continue to be good at giving up open threes so no surprise there.
