[HOFCeluck]

2/8 FTs.

Damn it refs!

 

[JarHeadJim]

3 on hicks!

 

[NineOneSeven]

Defense needs to step up

 

[Ghost]

Keep missing the free throws, guys! That'll win this one!

 

[doc05]

UNC has not hit ONE 3 pointer and they are up double digits. Obviously not a good sign.,

 

[NineOneSeven]

That was an atrocious half overall.

 

[UelSU]

Come back time.

 

[Ajflood12]

3-10 from FT. and G...yipes. We will be ok after the half.

 

[JarHeadJim]

Well we can't play much worse. We got this!

 

[djcon57]

Well...I think we need to make shots and FTs and that's it.

They are going to score. Need 70 points to win I think

 

[We Are Syracuse]

Awful Awful Awful half

 

[44cuse]

Can't play much worse. That's the good news. Make some adjustments. Let's go.

Just a disgusting half.

About as bad as we can play. It's one thing to miss shots. Quite another to have senior leaders making mental mistakes every other time down the court.

 

[Briancuse]

Come back time.

The problem is unc is much better offensively.

 

[two3zone]

If we can button up the paint, stop shooting long 2s, and make some free throws we'll win.

 

[MiniCuse]

I'm not worried. We got this.

 

[Orangemen]

UNC has not hit ONE 3 pointer and they are up double digits. Obviously not a good sign.,

No one expected them to hit 3s. Nothing crazy there.

Unc is doing what they do. Solid overall, a lot of offensive rebounds. They haven't gone crazy.

We're not playing well, missing fts, foul problems.

Given how we're playing, this score is almost a best case scenario.

 

[tee1222]

Gut check. Attack the heck out if them to start the second half. Get hungry, fellas.
Let's go.

 

[Ghost]

Well, TC gets hot in the second half, and Mali/Lydon pick it up and we got our shot.

G needs to come up big in this one though - gotta expect the 5th year backcourt to pick it up a bit!

And please, for the love of god, make your free throws!!!

 

[retro44]

I AM NOT LIKING THE REFS AT ALL. Players playing real physical against us and the North bigs are parked in the lane for violations on a lot of trips down court

[tptcuse]

Way to stay classy, Roy. Up by 11 and complain about a foul call at the halftime interview.

 

[Cootface]

Well...I think we need to make shots and FTs and that's it. They are going to score. Need 70 points to win I think

 

[UelSU]

Mals disappeared. G has forgot how to play basketball. Cooney has played ok. Roberson is giving his all. What a half.

 

[iommi]

FT shooting has been bag over to head material. 4th graders shoot better freebies. Outside of that, it came down to zero defensive rebounding and awful shot selection by SU. Frankly, UNC shot so poorly from the outside, you could argue we should have the lead. What a wasted opportunity that half was.
