Duke will wear their black jerseys tonight in Chapel Hill.

Carolina by 30 (not even joking)

I predict UNC 85 Duke 71

I base this on knowing nothing at all about UNC

They're really really tall

They're led by a 17 year senior point guard

They're coached by Huckleberry Hound

All the fans in the good seats are like 90

They're really really tall

Hmmmm. 84-72, then.

 

[DominoKid]

If we dont win by 10 imma be a lil salty

 

[Grover Cleveland]

lol first play and UNC already has two offensive boards.

Just make it respectable pls

 

[Randolph Freelander]

GG Carolina-GAF.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

Yep that's ballgame.

In other news, time for Duke to see about Li-Ning

 

[DominoKid]

im not enjoying how this game is transpiring.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

This feels like the most lopsided Duke-Carolina (in team quality) game since March 2012.

Difference is this Duke team has way more heart than that one.

Don't know how much that will help when Huck has four times as many dudes he can roll out.

UNC's basically getting lay ups every time down when Duke has to struggle for every possession. It's over.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Duke is making Brice Johnson a lot of money.

 

[TraBuch]

This game is going pretty much how I expected. Kind of want K to just say fuck it and put in Jeter or Obi or Vrankovic just so we have some size inside.

 

[Proelite]

This Duke team doesn't defend because they choose not to in the first half, for a good reason too.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Just let MP3 run isos.

 

[TraBuch]

Somehow, this game would be tied or Duke would have the lead if Ingram didn't miss so many easy shots. Feels like UNC should be up 20.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Surprisingly close at the half. Ingram isn't finishing. Legs will probably be an issue in the second, though.

 

[DominoKid]

We should be up 10 but Roy sucks smh

UNC can't defend Duke.

Duke won't defend UNC.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

Eh I'll take it.

Still feels like we're one big UNC run away from it being totally over.

Don't know if you can hang in a game for 40 minutes playing essentially 5 on 12.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

UNC can't defend Duke.

Duke won't defend UNC.

A game of well sure the basket's right over there.

 

[TraBuch]

Too bad Gbinjie and Ojeleye transferred, they'd be pretty useful right now.

 

[truly101]

Short term, I really don't care much about this game, but long term, Duke is going to be in big trouble if Matt Jones has a significant injury. Its 5 on 10 and only down 4. Can't ask for much more.

Silent G would have graduated last year if he had stayed.

Probably gonna get run down in the second. Jeter's gonna have to get in there and hold his own for a bit for us to stand a chance.

Edit: Jesus, has it been that long since Gbinjie transferred?

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Gbinije came in with Cook. He's a senior for Syracuse now, with that year he sat out.



Also, Jones came out on crutches. Start the offseason thread.

 

[TraBuch]

Jesus Christ,mput Jeter in there. I don't care how bad he is, we need a big body inside.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

Silent G came in with me in 2011.

Him
Rivers
Quinn
Plumlee The Third
Alex Murphy

 

[TraBuch]

What's Alex Murphy doing?

 

[truly101]

What's Alex Murphy doing?

Transferred to UF. I think last year was his last but I may be wrong.

 

[Proelite]

Refs, UNC doesn't need these calls to win.

 

[TraBuch]

Lol. UNC should be embarassed. 10 vs 5 and you can't put Duke away.

 

[Sky Chief]

Lol. UNC should be embarassed. 10 vs 5 and you can't put Duke away.

You mean 13 vs 5, they also have the refs

 

[Randolph Freelander]

I'm sure Domino would retort that Carolina has Roy.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

We joke about K retiring but real talk, Roy gotta go if he loses to this team at home.

 

[Deleted member 12837]

lololol what is happening

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Wow. Carolina ain't about that life. How did they lose this game?

 

[TraBuch]

Hahaha fuck you UNC. National Champs my ass.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

Yeah it's over for Huck

 

[ryseing]

Carolina lost. Today was a good day.

 

[Sky Chief]

Hahaahahahahahahahaha

 

[DominoKid]

Fuck Roy.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

Let's be real, did anyone expect Roy to actually do the smart thing and call that TO?

 

[Hasphat'sAnts]

Love this team

 

[LowlySmokeGuy]

Lmao the Texas Tech guy traveled when there was still a second on the clock, but the ref wanted to bail before the court storming.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Let's be real, did anyone expect Roy to actually do the smart thing and call that TO?

A lot of that has to be on the guards, right? Forget the timeout, they stopped going to the big men.

 

[Fjordson]

Well I didn't expect that.

 

[alejob]

Well NC and people in this thread owned by Duke.

This Duke has been playing with guts.

 

[Proelite]

I think I could have coached the UNC team to victory.

Maybe.

Probably.

Probably.

10 minutes to go, Plumlee is back in the game with 4, Jeter is no viable alternative. Whomever Plumlee is guarding, the guards have to keep feeding.

 

[NervousXtian]

That's an impressive win for Duke.. they played 5 players for almost the entire game.. that's some insane crazy shit you don't see.

Unranked last week, to top 10 this week?

I don't want them to be a 2 seed because we usually don't pull games out of our ass haha.
