OOTB Carolina Basketball Discussion Thread

I don't think so. I always thought Duke had to win the ACC tournament to get a 1 seed after their 3-3 performance without Zion. I do think that the committee will take that into account but IMO we aren't a lock unless Duke wins tonight.
I think you guys will get it no matter what. Zion is back and you have the three best wins in the nation. Us and uva twice.

I've never seen such a concerted effort by ESPN and the entire sports world to all drop to their knees and fellate everything dookie.

No one, after having watched 120 minutes of duke/UNC, thinks duke is better than Carolina. No one in their right mind, at least.

We were the better team again last night. The ball bounced their way, we couldn’t hit shit from outside and they needed a Herculean effort from a generational talent to eek out a 1 point win.

I pray we get to play duke again in the Final Four.

that’s not really the point in seeding...i actually think duke is better at full strength, but carolina has been better vs comp other than virginia.

duke gets the nod over carolina because of projections...that’s the important point.

After watching them the last 3 days, they remind me more and more of the 2015 team, except that, with Zion, they're even better than that team.

Eh, that team could shoot. If Duke had just one reliable three point shooter I'd be buying tickets to Minneapolis. Unfortunately they don't.
 
The perennial whining on THR about Duke getting an easy path to the Final Four is almost unbearable. I’d guess all of the 2s and 3s this year are capable of winning it all this year, and all will be legit with little separation. Could Duke’s bracket fall apart in front of them? Sure but that can happen to anyone and has happened for us before too.

I’ll go on record saying ACC deserves and gets 3 1-seeds later today, and zags get 4th 1 seed. We will be 1 seed in Midwest is my guess.

What about Tennessee? You don't think they deserve a 1 seed?

If Vols win today they sure have a case. They deserve the seed Zags will get, I think. I just don’t see the committee bumping Zags to the two line though they should IMO.

They might get it since TN lost. They have the most quad one wins in the country. I think the committee would rather give it to them instead of us.

mich st kid, kyle ahrens.
It seems like MSU has battled through like 5 major injuries this year, and still are competing for the Big Ten title and a 1 seed. Didn't they lose basically a top three player for the year midway through conference schedule?
 
Meh. UK is the only team that scares me there.

Don’t sleep on Utah St. They will play us tough.
I'm not sleeping on Iona.

I hope we get to play Kansas! I wanna beat Kansas more than any team in the NCAA. That's a monkey I want off the back.

Kentucky has its own problems with Iowa State and/or Houston to deal with.
 
I'd LOVE to be able to see a NCAAT Championship with UNC/dook. I wanted it so bad in the early 90's. It would be stressful, but it would be an incredible memory. It would be the most hyped game in history. I just hope it would be close like the last game, and we get that final swish! It would be hard to top that season, too. That would be the coop-duh-grass.

I get it, but how would you feel if UNC lost that game? Having to watch your rival celebrate a national championship, plus all the shit talk that would go on for the next 30 years. No thank you.
 
But, UNC wins the game.

he did!?!?!?!

wow
He did.
The X factor making UNC come out on top....

wait for it.....

"Coby's hair!" is what Jay said, kiddingly. He loves to talk about Coby's hair in a funny, lighthearted way.

But I think he sees Coby and Cam's scoring ability as tough to beat, and he really likes what stars both of these guys have become....and what Kenny gives us on defense, and Luke's all-around hustle, grinder game.
