If they shut down Perry Ellis again, we have no chance.

I think the guys will be on fire, and we’ll win by 20+

(Don’t worry, I’ll avoid the game chat so my optimism won’t ruin the downer party.)

@Blown I’m tied for second to last place ahead of someone who didn’t finish filling out the bracket in the bucket challenge.

As I recall, the Lite group was bitterly divided between “tastes great” and “less filling”

Did anyone actually watch the last ten-ish minutes of the Tech game?

Definitely slower pace with Lucas in, but I’d say we played more under control with Lucas in the game than with either Bragg or Diallo (and definitely without Greene flying around).

The quarter of the game where you WIN, net production doesn’t matter.

Tied 44-44. What did Lucas do?

10:03 Lucas post layup

8:52 Lucas screen for Mason made 3

8:31 Lucas boxout, fouled on defensive rebound

8:10 Lucas screen on Svi missed 3

6:02 Lucas assist on Selden jam

5:04 Lucas screen for Mason made 3

3:20 Lucas bounce pass to SVI who missed the dunk, made 1 FT

2:25 Lucas screen for Selden’s made 3

1:42 Lucas ssist/lob for Ellis jam

On Devonte’s layup at 1:08 Lucas screened Selden’s guy and Selden would have had an easy dunk if Devonte needed to dish of the ball. By that point the game was won.

Lucas got scored on a couple times in the 2-4 minute range, but other than that, I understand why Self is comfortable with Lucas out there. He knows exactly where he’s supposed to be.

Until Diallo figures that out, it’s going to be Lucas.

HUGE. Kev coming back is ten times bigger than any of the new guys, including Dickenson.

I’m not sure if y’all remember how inept last year’s team was with Kev hurt or on the bench. The guy is locked in like a coach on the floor. Juando and Kev + any three other halfway competent players is a damn good team.

Well, basically this is the same penalty North Carolina got except for the penalties.

Being a retired professional basketball player sounds pretty rough. Greg Ostertag–bored with golfing every day–decided to become the world’s tallest hockey player.

Seriously, here’s the story.

Interesting quote:

“I’ll be the first to admit that I never reached my full potential as a basketball player. I took it for granted that I was 7 feet tall, and I rode that.”

Yeah, well we all kind of figured that!

When he was a little kid, they called him “Squirt”

I love the masks. Haven’t had to trim my nose hairs in months! Thanks to my expressive eyebrows and dancing eyes I’m still able to connect personally with people in Menards, Dillons, the liquor store… well, that’s pretty much it.

Holding these free throw shooters under 70 ain’t bad

I’d like to have a tunnel

@Crimsonorblue22 said in UNCW Game Thread:

@DanR like a tunnel under the house? jk?

Well, you just casually dropped that in there like everyone has a tunnel

Wouldn’t mind seeing juando get pissed off once in a while lol

@Crimsonorblue22 tunnel?

Fresh legs

Keep going after those boards passmore

Passmore is going to be good

Storr is 6’7"?

And Mayo is 6’4"?

That’s why KJ plays, folks
