Pack and Cavs game thread

If we want to have a chance of making the tournament we need this game. It will be a game of wills. Whichever team can impose their will on the other will win this game. We need a high scoring game.

    I love Scott Wood but he does hurt us at times. Especially with his lack of defense (slow) and his offense is basically a 3. He needs to move more on offense. I really think he is a better 6th man.

    Wood is indeed playing like turd.

    Leslie playing great as well.

    best pass of the year by CALVIN

  5. wufpup76 01/28/2012 at 9:20 PM #

    They have no answer for Leslie and Howell.

    We need to force the ball down to Calvin more this game. UVA does not have anyone who can guard him

    Pace of the game is where we want it. Nice little flurry there to get us back within five. Gotta man up on D and get some transition possessions.

    The issue, as usual, is nobody else can hit from the outside consistenty. Not Zo. Not CJ. Not AJ. Hell, our best outside shooter other than Wood is probably Painter.

    Williams on Zeglinski now. Thank God.

    Wood needs to watch film of JJ getting open.

    So far, not a turd, good energy. Need to play better defense.

  12. Wulfpack 01/28/2012 at 9:22 PM #

    UVA has us right where they want us. 31 points for us. Double that and it is 62. If it is 62, UVA wins going away. We have to pick it up and somebody has to start making some freaking shots.

    Somebody please give me a logical reason why people that eat, sleep and breathe basketball 24/7 miss open shot after open shot after open shot.

    defense anybody????

  15. WolftownVA81 01/28/2012 at 9:23 PM #

    Without the stupid turnovers we’d be right in this.

  16. wufpup76 01/28/2012 at 9:23 PM #

    Brown and Wood both playing a little sub-par tonight.

    We need to feed the horses in the next half and attempt to hold them under 60% shooting.

    ….smoke if you GOTT ’em….

    If NCSU had a board of advertising and tourism, the motto should be “Come to Raleigh and have the game of your life!”

  19. bill.onthebeach 01/28/2012 at 9:25 PM #

    At the half.

    Hoos shooting down to 60% PACK 46%

    Rebounds PACK 18 Hoos 7

    Fouls PACK 4 Hoos 7

    Turnovers PACK 8 Hoos 4

    I’ll take that….

  20. GAWolf 01/28/2012 at 9:26 PM #

    Huh… We are right in this.

  21. eas 01/28/2012 at 9:26 PM #

    We really do need another outside threat. Alex Johnson is actually a really BAD shooter for a point guard. Zo is not much better. CJW is our 2nd best shooter.

    if wood and brown don’t wake up, i see 3 freshman starting next year

  23. TheCOWDOG 01/28/2012 at 9:29 PM #

    Cowdog wants to nip some goddam heels.

    Wood simply refuses to work for a shot and lord, lord, I’d box and one him with the freakin’ Wahoo mascot if I could.

    Why do our bigs insist on putting the ball on the floor in the paint ?

    Jeezus, my damn ears are hanging in the water bowl from the turnovers.

  24. Wufpacker 01/28/2012 at 9:29 PM #

    The sad fact is this team just doesn’t have a very high offensive basketball IQ. They work hard, especially on D, but on the offensive end they just are skilled enough to hang against good teams. Not sure if there’s much of any way to change that quickly enough for this season.

  25. OldWuf 01/28/2012 at 9:31 PM #

    OK Gott coach them up, we can whip these guys. Mr. Elmore- DT owned you back in the day and there is no way Ralph Sampson was the greatest ACC player ever- he never won anything- folded when it mattered
