UNC vs Georgia Tech game thread (12/7/2024)
- Thread starter TarHeelFanJ
- Start date
Withers with 2 turnovers in his first minute of game play. Washington fumbling the ball, and wasn't even looking when RJ gave him a pass on the pick and roll. Lubin can't catch anything.
We're playing a bad GT team at home and our big men can't even compete???

I know it was an exhibition but this team looked it’s best for a full game against Memphis. What was the difference for that one?
Washington is not a good basketball player. I really wanted him to be. I really wanted him to get better. I wanted him to make a great big improvement but he just isn't starting caliber player for any ACC team, especially North Carolina
Trimble bringing the energy today, attacking the rim and 8 points early.
16-16 with 8 mins left in the 1st

Yea, he is struggling, thought he was more of a contributor last year. Do think he is being used incorrectly? I mean should they open him up and try his skill on the wing? Man, I don't know...
Interesting that Georgia Tech decided to purely attack Cade Tyson and it looks like it's taken GT out of their rhythm.
He can't operate offensively with his back to the basket. He also doesn't look particularly comfortable defending with his back to the basket either.
I miss having big men who could dissect a zone defense. Remember Meeks, Johnson, and Hicks cutting up the Syracuse zone?
Not a good pass by R.J there, J Wash has to assume Davis will shoot a wide open 15 footer. He was going to the glass
Man that makes no sense, give him time to warm up, get into the flow of the game. He'll never break the funk being used like that.
I’d say it’s the worst front court in my life of watching Carolina. Nothing against Tyson but the money used on him should’ve been allocated towards our biggest need which was a center.
If you remember, he wanted more and was told "no". He went away for a week or so and ultimately committed.
Washington needs to play to his strengths. From what I hear, that is supposed to be shooting. Catch. Turn. Shoot!! For F's Sake!!!!
9 turnovers in 35 possessions. Hard to be efficient offensively giving up the ball 25% of your possessions.
Ian Jackson an offensive spark but a -6 in 12 minutes.
I thought RJ turned down a wide open 3 once. Cade obviously missed a wide open 3 that would've been nice to hit. And Seth had RJ in the far corner for a 3 when they were able to get a 2-on-1 zone mismatch. Seth overdribbled and passed late to RJ leading to a contested shot.
I turned on the game a little late, but I thought RJ played reasonably well at least offensively. He missed a couple of open 3s, but then hit a one legged runner off the glass from 2. I'm sure @DSouthr will come at me for UNC shooting too many 3s without that context.
What did you expect in this game? This is a struggling UNC team that's looking for an identity and they struggled through the first half against a pretty mediocre GT team at home.
Looking for answers.

Lubin 0 points.
Washington 0 points.
Post play can’t get much worse than that. This team will struggle all year because there is nobody on the roster to get a bucket in the paint when needed. It’s a very poorly constructed roster.
