UNC vs Georgia Tech game thread 2 Jan 2016

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Let's start the year off right with a win---looks like a high noon TIP off on CBS

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Looks like Georgia Tech is starting 4 seniors and one junior so it is no wonder with all of that expierence they come into the game 10-3...

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Jackson 2 fts 2-2

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Berry a bank runner 4-2

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

4-4 after 2 fts

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

James layup 2 layups 8-6 Why Georgia Tech is pressing makes zero sense--James again 10-6... No misprint James does have 6 points

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Long rebound leads to a Tech layup after Johnson scores on a short turnaround jumper. 12-10 for the good guys at the first tv timeout. Britt now in for Berry and Hicks has replaced James

 

[strummingram]

This one is going to be close, I'm afraid.

 

[strummingram]

Brice looked GREAT on that play!

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Pinson in for a Jackson commits a early foul and Brice slams in a Pinson miss and a ft 15-10

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

A Berry turnover leads to a Tech three 15-13

 

[strummingram]

we're ice-cold from 3

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Three straight turnovers on UNC and tech takes the lead 17-15 make that 4 straight turnovers and thankfully a tv timeout before the streak hits 5.

 

[toophly1124]

We're getting open looks .. They'll start to fall eventually ... Unlike berry with 2 bad passes

 

[geo1464]

Nate=turnover playing awful again.

 

[coryfly]

Berry and Britt not doing a good job taking care of the ball and we are not shooting well. This is a game where I'm not sure Maye is going to be able to handle their big guys. Great start from James though.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Nothing from Paige, Hicks , Pinson and Britt so far

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

6 straight trips with no points until Hicks scores on a follow up 17-17

 

[strummingram]

Super sloppy

 

[GoNtheDistance]

Games like this remind us why Nate Britt's minutes should continue to decrease.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Mitchell killing UNC'S interior people

 

[coryfly]

Jackson got pushed out of the way for that last rebound. Calls are pretty one-sided so far.

 

[strummingram]

6 turnovers

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

A GT three 22-19 and another Carolina turnover

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Another GT bomb is followed by a Paige lap 25-21 Smiths third three 28-21

 

[strummingram]

Ga Tech raining threes

 

[coryfly]

The trap is so dumb.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

28-23 at another TV break. Carolina getting very little from the guards today. Good thing Johnson came to play today or this one would be already out of hand.

 

[toophly1124]

No use beating a dead horse .. We know we're gonna leave their guys open behind the arc ..just have to hope they start missing lol ... Jackson to me just doesn't look comfortable out there

 

[geo1464]

Wide open there's again wow it gets so old watching this defense.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

With 9 minutes to go in the half Tech already in the one and one and lead 330-2

 

[toophly1124]

With 9 minutes to go in the half Tech already in the one and one and lead 330-2

330-2 eh?

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

30-23 as Britt causes a Tech turnover and another Tar Heel foul puts Tech on the line 31-23

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Britt 2 charity tosses 31-25

 

[Bur-Heel]

We look bad right now!!

 

[Bur-Heel]

And Paige missing free throws!!

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Paige hits 1 ft 33-26

 

[strummingram]

When they play this bad, it makes me really question the hype and talk that UNC is a Final Four team.

 

[Bur-Heel]

Where's the crowd energy?

JoEL GRAB THE DAMN BALL
