State UNC game thread

Since I started the game threads we are 3-0. Since I am obviously the reason we keep winning I will keep doing the game thread. Ironically I will not be watching the game or able to join the game thread as my wife committed me to attend her nephew’s daughter’s baptism. Sigh. That means someone else will need to carry on the nickname “Buckets” and start the new one “Player X”.

I have no idea how this game will go. They will be playing “small ball” and we will be looking to score in the paint. Whichever team is able to force their will on the other will win. We should be more consistent as we will not be relying on the three, so if UNC gets hot we need to minimize the damage and keep our heads. This will be a close but high scoring game. I think we win it 87-83.

    Not a bad start … Allowing a little too much penetration for my liking, but I love the early aggression.

    Luke Skywalker wore black in Return of the Jedi … Just sayin’

    Leslie is going to have to move the ball quickly today. Too many doubles and flopping. He’s not handling it well

    Good choice to sit CJ.

  13. Wufpacker 02/23/2013 at 4:14 PM #

    Way too many unforced errors. We need to settle down a bit with that.

    Strickland is a stiff. Do not let him beat us!!
    6 turnovers. Hope Lewis can calm us down and protect the ball

    Are we going to play defense or what?

  21. wufpup76 02/23/2013 at 4:17 PM #

    Alright Leslie, redemption time

  22. Wufpacker 02/23/2013 at 4:18 PM #

    OK, is Leslie drunk or what?

  23. Wulfpack 02/23/2013 at 4:18 PM #

    I do not understand how UnC is wide open on all of these threes.

  24. TheAliasTroll 02/23/2013 at 4:19 PM #

    CJL way over rated… would love to see his +/- numbers the past 10 games.

  25. Wulfpack 02/23/2013 at 4:19 PM #

    This is really poor defense so far. We know what they are going to do. We have the big guys down low, but are letting them bomb away. Force the drive and make it difficult down low. May give up a few easy ones but UNC will torch us if this keeps up.

    And stop turning it over, for crying out loud. Get with it, boys.
