Frank was not a problem in this game. Not even close. We let a bad team stick around in a game we controlled and got bit. Gotta beat teams that are worse than you. We didn't do that. The defense failed today.
The arm on neck was incidental. The NCST player's T was for getting up & getting in Frank's face. We were fortunate it was a double T.Better go back and replay that play. Player had his arm around Howard's neck enough to tug on him. Why do you think there was a double T?
i dont buy the excuse that frank is tired for his lazy d, remember the end of notre dame game? its more about his attitude and effort than his minutes.

Yes there was still enough time.So people actually do think Frank tried to hit that second foul shot.
Why?
No, but that’s not the point.Did Howard give up all the 3’s in the corner tonight too?
No way he agrees with that. I'm sure JB may have, but Frank's a free thinker. He missed that on purpose. 98% sure.Yes there was still enough time.
Especially after he went 0-5 from ft line down stretch last game. He is entering Nick Anderson territoryNo, but that’s not the point.
Until he bricked those two FT’s, we still had a chance. You simply can’t go up there and gag the freebies, completely taking the life outta your team...you, the point guard.
Personally, if he’d made the 2 and we’d still lost, I’d feel a little bit better somehow.
Losing with such a gut punch...in such a feeble whimper of a way, just puts a worse connotation on everything. It just...like i said, i got nothin’.
JMHO

5 seconds. Time for what?Yes there was still enough time.

Which has won vs Arizona neutral, at NC, and Duke/Clemson at home - i.e., not a bad teama bad team
Completely agree. As constructed right now, they are absolutely a better team.Which has won vs Arizona neutral, at NC, and Duke/Clemson at home - i.e., not a bad team
(it's not what this thread is about but I hate these false narratives that crop up after games)

Perhaps there would have been more time if FH hadn't walked the ball up the previous possession or if TB would have driven as soon as he got the ball5 seconds. Time for what?

huh?literally the worst team.
You don't think him shoving a player and drawing a T is a problem let alone not even close to a problem?
huh?
You think the game has changed that much since 2016?I’m not sure any team with JB as coach will ever be successful again.
hoping you're not really this cluelessAre you seriously arguing that NC State is decent at basketball this year?

There was a double T not because the guy had his arm around his neck but because he came back at Frank after Frank tossed him aside. It was a dumb thing to do.Better go back and replay that play. Player had his arm around Howard's neck enough to tug on him. Why do you think there was a double T?
This is another narrative that is so overplayed. We had a relatively easy path that year. Much like UConn's last title. But no one thinks ollie is a genius anymore.You think the game has changed that much since 2016?
