2014-2015 NC Hoops: Duke Rules the Road
- Thread starter tims4wins
- Start date
Last game I was at was 82-50 against UNC in 2010. Looks like I may have to make it down for more.
That's a big win right there. Unlikely to win the ACC but need to slot into the 2-3 seeds so they can be on the opposite side as Virginia in the ACC tourney.
That's one of the most boring UNC teams in a long time. Impressed with Hicks though (other than the FT). Is Meeks in the doghouse? 12 minutes?
Love how Paige was composed while held scoreless and then just turned it on when it was needed.

Roy said (or intimated) that Meeks was playing less because BC doesn't have a true "big," and he struggles to guard out on the perimeter where Clifford was going a lot today. But he also didn't say he was going to start against Pitt next Saturday, and Hicks did what you want to see a kid do when he gets a start. Too bad he missed his last few FTs but he did start seven-for-seven. It was a good game, though, to the BC guys. Hanlan is an excellent player.
Also to the Duke fellas here, that was the most impressive win any team has so far this year. ND is a really, really good team and that was a total decimation.
Duke/UNC in 10 days is shaping up to be a big game in determining the stretch run. The path still goes through UVA, and rightly so, as their defense shows up every night and is absolutely awesome to watch. Simply phenomenal effort and execution there. Louisville continues to have offensive issues, so I expect them to slide, but ND has a pretty easy schedule the rest of the way. Winner of Duke/UNC has the inside track to the 2-seed for the tourney now.
Justin Anderson broken finger for UVA. Sucks big time - hope he's back healthy for NCAA tourney.

I disagree with you.
My friend Ben made this for my son's 1st birthday and it hangs in my office now, a few years later. Both of our Dads gave us Carolina basketball and, by extension, Dean Smith. We each had/have complicated relationships with those men, his now gone a little over ten years. There are some elements hinting at that bond in the painting, so for it to be on the occasion of my own son's first birthday - it was beautiful.

Duke at FSU tonight. FSU has the following players:
Kiel Turpin is 7-0, 240, Boris Bojanovsky 7-3 and 240, while Michael Ojo is 7-1 and 290.
I mean, what is that. Play all 3 and just throw over the top all game. Sure you'll give up fast breaks on misses, but ideally you won't be missing much with those guys just laying it in.

It sounds good, but that's not true. There have been several duke-unc games on ESPN/ABC since 1979 that vitale did not call.DukeSox said:

My flight from TPA to BOS is from 8:59-11:57 tonight in JetBlue. I have never been so excited to have TV on my plane.
North Carolina blew the game all by themselves (it's what they do - Iowa State, Louisville, tonight), but come on.

The refs put the whistles away in OT. Don't forget about the rebound Okafor grabbed where the ball somehow just shot straight out of bounds as he went up with it. Overall, an awesome game. This will be another battle down at the Dean Dome in a few weeks.
I also don't think it's a foul. Loose ball, Winslow gets to it first and tips it straight up in the air (watch his hand), and Paige just runs straight into the forearm. He weighs like 95 lbs so he goes flying, but that was Winslow to the ball first.
