North Carolina game thread

[CaliCuse]

Agreed they made this March Madness enjoyable and that was unexpectedAS AN ASIDE GOT returns three weeks from tomorrow and we still have the women to cheer for.

Well Boeheim Army 2 is up next. Maybe Cooney will be on it!

 

[kirbivore]

I'll always watch. The worst for me was 2014 storz/UK

 

[Kevind13]

Dude seriously?? With all the crappy officiating and how many calls UNC got you have have the guts to call these guys that after the run they have put on the last few weeks??

You cannot beat officiating. It plays such a role. I get killed for it because I complain all the time but they effect the game. It happens in every sport so be it.

Roberson needs to live in the gym and work on a workable handle and some sort of jump shot, as well as finishing inside through contact. Can we have Roc come back for a few weeks to school him?

 

[Pearl309]

Yayaya it was a great run but what a lame way to go out. Outside of trev and getting more than the usual ounce of production from DC this team played without any spark on O or D Played nervous and it showed
UNC played almost unbeatable but we sure were their guide to that great game they played

 

[NYCSUGrad]

Refs were not great but overall not a big factor at all on the outcome.

Not sure of that. We got it to 7 then the refs missed a bunch of calls in a very short time. Killed the momentum

 

[kirbivore]

what are you mumbling Roy?

 

[Toga]

Win or lose, Villanova will be the 2016 national champion.

I thought ppl said Roberson was out???

Officiating did not allow repeated uncontested lay ups, officiating did let Carolina get loose balls.

Maybe but we just didn't have the horses. We were gassed and needed a huge performance from G. Didn't happen. Not our night and Carolina was just better.

I will be rooting for UNC. I like their players.

We lost it. Those two travels they missed early in the second half hurt though. They missed that one where Mali stepped out of bounds, but all it did was get us the ball with 3 seconds on the shot clock and a violation.

We open with a three pointer, kid blatantly travels, no call......picks up Mali's 3rd foul. They get 2 points out of it.

That trap in the corner, rewound just to see if my mind was playing tricks on me (same kid Justin Jackson) drags his foot a good 2 feet to make the pass, UNC gets their first three.

Huge plays.

Also thought Brice Johnson traveled on that first UNC runout early in the second half, but would have to see it. Looks like he was going to dribble, saw the run out, took the second step before passing.

Also, not sure how Mali didn't get more And 1s.....on that one the kid just pushed him in the back. Pretty hard call to miss.

Oh wellz. happens. Us missing free throws, and G playing so erratically were bigger issues. And Lydon being kind of crap in the second half.

Rooting for UNC will mean rooting for a vacated champion...so im going that route.

Are you ing kidding me? No they didn't. But when you make a run and you are repeatedly screwed it has an effect. We were screwed. It is what it is.

I'm rooting for whichever team doesn't have Brice Johnson. Otherwise, the UNC team would be fairly likable.

 

[tptcuse]

I will be rooting for UNC. I like their players.

I like Jay Wright, so I'll be rooting for 'Nova.

 

[SoBeCuse]

Seriously. We got some bad calls going our way. DaJuan steps out trying to save a ball. Malachi steps out trying to save a ball. A ball goes off Malachi but awarded to us.

We couldn't stop them and our offense was mostly 1-on-1 garbage. Mostly chucking like it or not.

 

[wadegarrett]

he's not going anywhere. If will be painfully obvious to him after the workouts.

He is so so so gone

 

[Cowtown]

I like Jay Wright, so I'll be rooting for 'Nova.

Likewise. If UNC played ISIS, I'd have to flip a coin to see who to cheer for. Least of all Brice "penitentiary face" Johnson.

 

[Cowtown]

That's pretty much it. Well stated, iommi.

 

[Pearl309]

I swear parts of this game felt like globetrotters vs generals.

 

[kirbivore]

He is so so so gone

care to wager?

Beg to differ. Sure, we were over-matched tonight, but it was nothing even approaching comedic.
