Game Thread: UNC @ SU

[jonvi]

Who wants some of this!!!!

Yep UNC and another blue team think they own it up in here. pffft. The face of the ACC is Orange this year.

I dont think anyone will argue that. That 2-3 zone is a motha.

I think Syracuse will win this by about 20. UNC has no outside shooting outside of Paige. Slow him down and I just don't think UNC can score enough.

Yep...and because of it, I'm going with a low scoring prediction.....SU 68, UNC 64. Over 70, I think the game favors UNC. They have a roster of studs...if more then Paige knocks down shots, it soften up the zone. UNC hasn't had many light it up from outside yet.

Yea, who plays part time defense and turns the ball over unnecessarily. Carolina is a "next year" team as far as the ACC/National title contender.

McAdoo is the most overrated player ive seen in yrs

I see NO REASON for UNC to compete in this game so.... UNC by 3. LOL

lol....yeah...trolley, another poster asked me if UNC beats the great teams and loses to the shitty teams, what's that say about the Cuse? Man.....

 

[elijah]

Quite the sloppy start for 'Cuse

This Tar Heels team is totally unpredictable. We are running on fumes. Roy lost his superstars so now we are playing on true grit.

 

[geneh_33]

OK, reality is starting to settle in to this game. Think I'll just catch a few ZZZ's now.

 

[TrollyMcTroller]

Syracuse doing a good job on defense as you would expect, but if Carolina can't hit open shots, or score on fast breaks they're doomed.

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Missed the game. Looks like Cuse zone was on point once again.

 

[jonvi]

SUs D abused the heels. Shit game to watch, but that's SU.

He was good as long as he could jump passing lanes and make plays in the open court knowing Zeller and Henson were guarding the paint. Dickie V thought last year he could be a potential player of the year. He's not even close. His greatest strength is driving to the rim but someone convinced him to be a jump shooter.

The guy got a couple of highlights on the cuse. He prolly had the best dunks of the game. He also can't shoot a free throw....I mean wounded ducks don't properly describe his shot from the ft line.

Not the most exciting game to watch but a win for the Cuse is all that matters. J.B. needs to get into the bench a littler more way to many minutes for Fair, Cooney, and Ennis.

I was wondering why he didn't go to Roberson anyways.
