UNC vs Pitt Game Thread

[imajericho]

Don't ruin your vacation dude. Do you REALLY wanna know?

Heels down 58-64 with about 5 to go. Pitt hitting every 3 they throw up.

In Pitts defense, they are all basically wide open.

 

[strummingram]

I hope they can somehow find a decent enough effort to win Saturday.

This team won't even sniff the NIT.

 

[tarheels0015]

wonder if this team could play zone .. or man to man .. not sure they know what there doing half the time

 

[heels05champs]

If we lose, it’s on Roy for that pathetic lineup of Leaky/Platek backcourt and then putting Keeling in. Just terrible that they were allowed to kill the lead and momentum.

We need to move the game Saturday to Clemson I hate to think the streak will end

cant say I disagree. At some point you have to stop doing the same shit with a bad team and expect a different result. That’s 100% on Roy.

Roy has to step it up too, all of us have played some level of basketball and its a math game, when you have a 14 point lead the new scheme is no 3's .. Make them earn it 2 at a time or at the line.. This taking target practice thing where guys have to collapse and then cover 3's is for the birds..

 

[sctarheel30]

Francis looks scared to even shoot

makes me sick to think about.

 

[sctarheel30]

When are we gonna have a team that can hit FTs too

 

[TarHeelMark]

hit your MF'ing free throws! dammit

 

[GoNtheDistance]

Best thing about this season will be when it’s over. I’m not sure we win 12 games.

 

[gauchoheel]

Keeling just plain sucks. There I said it. How awful is he

It's pretty frightening.

 

[tarheels0015]

clank

 

[TarHeelMark]

This team won't even sniff the NIT.

I think you need to have a winning record for NIT, and we are going to end up about 14-17

ETA: on second thought, 14 wins might be a hell of an accomplishment at this point

 

[Spaceytoyz]

why the Platek extended minutes thing tonight? He is a train wreck..

 

[strummingram]

Roy's jinxed, stuck on being tied with Dean.

 

[al would]

our shooting is just terrible

 

[tarheels0015]

wish I hadn't even watched

 

[imajericho]

Francis looks scared to even shoot

Yeah, he has super hesitation and looks afraid to drive in now. Plus he keeps slowing down with that gallop thing he does a lot.

 

[sctarheel30]

Is it me or does Francis do a lot of useless dribbling and really not go anywhere? Side to side and afraid to drive or shoot. Teams don’t seem to be scared that he’s gonna drive by them or pull up for a jumper.

 

[Lewis&Miller]

Our offense is in disarray. Players watching Francis dribble thru the sets wondering where in the hell they possibly could move to.

 

[Spaceytoyz]

Capel gave Roy a woodshedding after half...

It's a 1980 brand of defense and Roy will never change.

 

[sctarheel30]

Sooo true

He didnt' seem that way at first, but the whole team is just... I don't even know, but just...

 

[gauchoheel]

He's had us overhelp for years on 3s. Not sure what it's about, and it can obviously be overcome (we won a championship while doing so), but leaving 3 point shooters wide open in the three-point era to triple team a guard inside is bad coaching. Even a novice like me knows that.

 

[sctarheel30]

They’re hitting on their three-pointers

 

[TarHeelMark]

pitt is 8-11 from 3 in 2nd half... pathetic

 

[Spaceytoyz]

It's a 1980 brand of defense and Roy will never change.

you can chalk this one up to being hard headed then

 

[sctarheel30]

Man we had to score there and didn’t

 

[strummingram]

Leave the 3point shooters wide open

 

[GoNtheDistance]

why is Bacot out in favor of Pierce right now? Hmm

 

[Spaceytoyz]

Stopppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp saying their hitting their 3 pointers, its 2020, anybody and everybody can hit those when they are wide open.............................................

He was t before. He does now.

And ugh Francis missed another open 3. Hurts.

 

[sctarheel30]

I see why Francis doesn’t shoot much now

 

[GoNtheDistance]

Leaky is terrible guys. Just terrible.

 

[strummingram]

Another loss... at home

 

[imajericho]

Game over.

 

[sctarheel30]

There’s the dagger
