The following is a true story (I swear I'm not making this up)...

Two nights ago I had a dream where I was being attacked by a zombie... but it was a ROY WILLIAMS zombie! And as I'm trying to fight off the attack, I'm yelling shit like "What the hell are you doing?" and "What is wrong with you Roy Williams". Obviously yelling at a zombie does NO GOOD whatsoever.

So upon further review, it's pretty obvious that Roy will have his usual moments tonight with weird line-ups on the floor, or when he won't call a time-out and I'll be yelling that same shit at the TV - and getting the same results that yelling at a zombie will get you.... absolutely NOTHING.

I assume that Roy being a zombie is symbolic in that a zombie is hard to kill and not very adaptable, much like Roy is stubborn and somewhat inflexible in his philosophy?

But the only thing I can't figure out is why the Roy Williams zombie had a metal pole in one hand; basically a festivus pole. I hope that means we'll be celebrating some feats of strength tonight.

Strangely, this odd story has increased my confidence a little bit.

I can dig it.
 
If you knew we were going to lose tonight, given the two options below, how would you want it to go down? Would you want to lead the whole game and have it stolen at the end a la Austin Rivers? Or would you want a beatdown with it over by half so you can check out early?

On the flip side, if you knew we were going win, how would you prefer to win it? They lead the whole game and we steal it at the end or a complete beatdown?
 
Let them steal it at the end. Makes us hungrier for round 2.

Beat the brakes off of those bitches. Create more turmoil in Derm.

No sane person would watch it if they knew ahead of time we would lose. If you're not going to watch, it doesn't matter how you lose.

While it would make me nervous, I'd prefer the steal it at the end result. Nothing like feeling good about the game for 39 minutes only to have it snatched away at the end.

Definitely steal it at the end. Feels like Duke has done that a lot to us recently. One game in Chapel Hill comes to mind. Was it 2016?
