Syracuse at UNC game thread Monday 29 Feb 2016--senior night

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Hope that Marcus, Brice and Joel are not too pumped up that their early game is off because I would rather them go out in style blowing out the Orangemen. Thanks guys now use this game as a stepping stone to the big Dance...

 

[Heelicious]

I have a decent feeling. I think maybe Roy has lost only 1 senior night game in his time at KU and UNC. Last year vs Duke. Does that sound right?

 

[Ozheelfan]

Biscuits for senior night.... sounds right

 

[keysersosay#1]

Let's GO HEELS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Looks like the game is being broadcast on ESPN

 

[BillyL]

GO ZUNC

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

James opens up the scoring with a follow up 2-0

 

[tarh33ls]

Starting the seniors, including the walk ons is a simple tradition but one that I love and one that makes me proud to be a UNC fan.

 

[tarh33ls]

Joel playing angry to start which is always nice to see

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Johnson turn around 4-0

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Berry BOOM brings the rain from the top 7-2

 

[Ozheelfan]

James opens up the scoring with a follow up 2-0

Does Coleman get an assist?

 

[strummingram]

Paige is building a house again.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

At the first tv break it is 7-4 as CAROLINA is settling for long threes. 1 for 4 so far. Meeks now in for James.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Jackson BOOM from the corner and a steal and a basket 12-6

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Johnson a followup 14-8

 

[tarh33ls]

Horrible stretch, got to get it together. 4-0 on fouls

 

[strummingram]

doesn't look good so far.

 

[JP4UNC]

Wish we had a team that never committed fouls. 5-0 so far and two on Brice

 

[coryfly]

We are getting hammered inside on rebounds, several times on shots inside as well and they call that shot in Brice.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Syracuse playing strong and at the 12 minute tv timeout the score is 14-17 after a wide open Orange three. Two straight walks on the good guys. Brice now with 2 fouls and Syracuse is owning the boards. The two three zone is definitely bothering the Heels...

 

[BillyL]

LOL at Marcus talking trash to Brice on the computer sideshow.

 

[CarolinaMagic]

I'm ready for the season and the investigation to be over. No team in the country gets officiated the way Carolina does.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Hicks scores 16-17

 

[strummingram]

bricking 3's

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Maye- scores after a Pinson miss 18-17

 

[JP4UNC]

fouls 6-0. Just sit there and take it Roy

 

[Ozheelfan]

Good defence by Luke then he got away with a push for the rebound and put-back!

 

[BillyL]

Some refs just can't see . .

 

[JP4UNC]

Horrible call by the blind guys

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Britt BOOM from the top 21-18

 

[gteeitup]

good lord this is tough to watch

 

[tarh33ls]

As just an average 3 point shooting team we would look so much better

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Pinson boom from the elbow 24-20

 

[JP4UNC]

2 on Hicks still zero on Cuse

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

24-20 at the 8 minute tv timeout and right on cue Hicks gets his second foul.

 

[coryfly]

That was dumb by hicks but Syracuse is pushing in the back constantly.

 

[Ozheelfan]

So the weird line-up gets the Heels back in front...... and then Isaiah picks up his millionth career foul.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Cuse going to the line a ton

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Jackson a left handed floater 26-22
