    Unexpected offense from MJ and BC and Fells finally hits some threes. The problem is that we forgot to play defense at halftime. I didn’t expect us to win this one, but I will be very disappointed with a loss after the good effort in the first half.

    highstick,

    Believe it or not, I actually played a game with Artis Gilmore and George Adams on a friend’s outside driveway court.

    Down by 6, 62-56

    It’s been Ugly ever since Hickson went to the bench in the first half with his 2nd foul with about 3:30 left.

    62-56 3rd foul on JJ

    Come on D! They’re shooting 56%!

    has anyone done any studies on the stress level of an NCState fan compared to other teams around the country?!

    our team is the most frustrating team I have ever seen.

    BC with the lazy pass at the top of the key and then the blocking foul on the layup.

    This is not good. ???!!!

    Why not use the bench, where are Harris and Smith? We need an injection of enthusiam.

    Just check the obits the day after a bball game for the number of State fans that died from heart attacks.

    maryland 80% shooting in the 2nd!

    Beb got a T for saying “and one” to the ref after scoring on a drive. WTF

  12. 1.21 Jigawatts 02/09/2008 at 9:38 PM #

    Another blowout loss resulting from coming out so freaking flat to start the 2nd half.

  13. redfred2 02/09/2008 at 9:38 PM #

    Gist is the designated “career best” player for the evening. Vasques is following in distant second.

    Ben not Beb. Sorry.

    How can this team be so mentally strong at the end of a close game yet unbelievably weak during the rest of the game?

  16. redfred2 02/09/2008 at 9:43 PM #

    Fells 3. Down by ten, 75-65, on a team that’s shooting 78% for the half.

  17. JeremyH 02/09/2008 at 9:43 PM #

    How the f*** can you call Ben McCauley motioning “and 1” after fighting to the basket a technical 2 shots and ball. Are you f****** kidding me??? Oh, and we don’t get to play them at home. TY ACC

  18. redfred2 02/09/2008 at 9:44 PM #

    Clean drive to basket bt Vasquez, that’s it.

  19. PackFan 02/09/2008 at 9:44 PM #

    I’ve got some mixed emotions on this…on the one hand, you’re simply not going to beat someone shooting 57% most of the time. However, if most of their shots are layups, that helps explain why they are shooting so hot.

  20. redfred2 02/09/2008 at 9:47 PM #

    “you’re simply not going to beat someone shooting 57% most of the time.”

    Huh?

  21. 1.21 Jigawatts 02/09/2008 at 9:49 PM #

    This team is so Jekyl and Hyde. We’ll be great one half and horrible the other. The question you should ask during the first half of ever game is, “If this is the good half is our lead big enough to withstand an ugly showing in the next?”

  22. 1.21 Jigawatts 02/09/2008 at 9:51 PM #

    Let’s just face it fellas, we’re just not an NCAAT team this year. We’re a solid NIT. Very Average.

  23. JeremyH 02/09/2008 at 9:51 PM #

    redfred2, I was slow getting back to watching the game, working on homework, we were leading by 2 but like 3 minutes into the second half they are down by 8? how did that happen??

  24. Sweet jumper 02/09/2008 at 9:52 PM #

    State 57% 2nd half shooting; MD 78% shooting 2nd hslf. I really believe that Simon Harris muscling Gist around for a few minutes might have slowed Gist down and taken away some of his momentum. Our defensive and rebounding inconsistencies are frustrating and mind boggling.

  25. JeremyH 02/09/2008 at 9:53 PM #

    i think the bottom line is we’re not strong enough on the defensive end.
