UNC vs Clemson game thread

Vegas line closed at UNC -3 ... that "meaningless" cost some folks some serious cash. Lucky for me I got them at -2.5 midday. And then bet the 2nd half total OVER, which included overtime. Phewwwww!
 
Also I think TB should start, because hicks don't have a starter IQ yet.
I'm with ya.
Never going to happen, but I'd start Berry Jackson Pinson Williams and Bradley when TP gets back.

Its not like right now Meeks is giving us anything unless he gets some unguarded layup. And neither Hicks nor Meeks work nearly hard enough right now to post up, get the ball, then finish strong. I have more faith in Maye finishing strong, than I do in Meeks. And at least Bradley tries to dunk it when he gets it down low.... even if he has a guy defender hanging on him.

I agree. Hicks upsets the rotation because he is always in foul trouble. But for quicker line-ups it may not work.
 
For part of the 2nd half, he was cooking with gas. Rough start, though, and still some bad moves in the 2nd half from time to time. Still that was the Berry we've been missing, once he got going.
And to be fair, I think Berry had some bad plays, but some of it is also due to 1,2, or 3 guys for us just standing with their ___ up their ____. I sense sometimes he is a bit unselfish, plus they were putting like 3 guys on him late in the game.

Someone else on our team has to move and do something, besides Berry and Jackson. As much as we rag on Britt, at least he moves on offense, and tries his best on defense.

Meeks and Hicks right now just stand and watch on both ends. Get them some popcorn and a seat next to Roy if they are just going to watch
 
There is a discussion on the Clemscum Premium Board about Brad and Roy......saw something about Kennedy.........not a premi member so.....
 
There were a few offensive possessions late where we ran the shot clock all the way down and the guys looked lost for 30 seconds each time.

Would love to see Roy go to a small line-up.

Berry
Williams
Jackson
Pinson
Meeks

Then bring Hicks off the bench at the 17-minute mark.
 
Hearing now had to do w Kennedy mouthing off to clemsons bench. If that was the case I retract my statement about brownell being a whiny bitch.
 
Big win!! Very happy about that. On the road against a tough team. That said, hopefully we can play even better on Saturday. We still don't look quite right.

Brownell definitely wasn't upset about the refs. Roy said sorry multiple times. If it was Kenny he needs to chill, because there was nothing wrong with the last layup. Up four in overtime...

He still is in my opinion....like players don't talk! I am sure that the Clemson players did not say a word during the whole game.....take it up with Roy on a phone call tomorrow not in line after you just lost....makes you look like a whiney sore loser!!!!!!

This sounds more likely. It makes no sense to be upset about that layup, and Roy was very clearly apologetic.
 
Just win baby and that is what the Heels did tonight. No matter what you liked about the game or what you did not like about the exciting overtime contest Carolina won and nothing and I Mean nothing else matters...

I also don't like the way Brad stood there after shaking hands looking all pissy like he was spoiling for a fight....screw him!!!!!

Roy clearly said "I'm sorry, I'm sorry about that Brad, rest assured, I'll take care of it."
 
If it was Williams late layup then we all agree brownell is a bitch. You always take the 2 in that case and don't chance getting fouled. You miss the free throws and it's a 4 pt game with 10 seconds left. A lot can happen in 10 seconds.

If it was Meeks who said something then it better have been real disrespectfuk because these are college kids who play with passion on both sides. His kids had some flares so did ours. There was nothing I saw from either side that warranted a bitch session at the end and Roy damn sure better not apologize for something without knowing what happened. What I liked the least was brownell walking back past the handshake line and saying something to one of our players, assuming Meeks. Handle it with the coach as you did and even Roy gave him an apology. Bush league coach who let a chance at a big time resume win at home get away from him.
