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.

    Nice little run there. With his size, there’s really no good reason for Wood to have such a hard time getting open looks.

    Clamp the pressure. No easy three out of the break on this one.

    I would tell the team they would run 5 suicides for every open shot zelinski gets.

    Possible that VA is wearing down a bit. Please keep that pace up.

    We GOTT another TO in less than a minute…. bridge this and then step it up a notch coming out of the TV and keep this going….down to 5 minutes and the lead….

    Hey Wood….MOVE!!!!!!! You have to work to be open. Please show him some JJ films Gott.

    I knew it.

    That’s 4. 3 this half.

    We lose.

    Stupid, stupid foul from Howell there. He’s gotta realize he’s out of position and has no fouls to give. That’s huge.

  8. Rick 01/28/2012 at 9:55 PM #

    Howell with his fourth foul.
    The refs are calling the game tighter this half than last.
    Typical ACC crap, inconsistency. How can you know how to play when it changes during a game?

    Crap call

    I know have a complete understanding of why speed and size have an effect on the stars.

    Very much looking forward to TJ, Rod, and Tyler.

    “When you play with that much intensity you’re bound to pick up fouls.”

    Uhh, Tyler Hansborough anyone?

  12. Howler 01/28/2012 at 9:56 PM #

    Bring Howell back in with 8 to go if we are still down at that point.

  13. Wufpacker 01/28/2012 at 9:56 PM #

    Dammit Wood!!! Move your narrow ass and get open!!!

  14. Howler 01/28/2012 at 9:57 PM #

    Good Hansborough observation, pup

  15. Wufpacker 01/28/2012 at 9:57 PM #

    A reach around foul. Patrick is just too damn funny, and doesn’t even realize it. I’m sure he’s been whistled for a few reach arounds in his day.

    Howell has earned loads of respect tonight. I’m proud of that man.

  17. Dogbreath 01/28/2012 at 9:58 PM #

    Wood just ran down the floor and went straight to post up on the low block. WTF?

  18. Rick 01/28/2012 at 9:58 PM #

    “When you play with that much intensity you’re bound to pick up fouls.”

    UNC is 5th in the nation in blocked shots but is last in number of fouls called against them.

  19. wufpup76 01/28/2012 at 9:58 PM #

    Rick is right. Highly inconsistent calls really cost Howell & co. in each game.

    He was even more physical in the first half and had one foul.

    ACC refs FTW.

    Need Calvin to step up. He’s been awfully quiet and with Howell on the pine we need him to make some plays. Still like where we are.

  21. bill.onthebeach 01/28/2012 at 9:58 PM #

    OK… Hoos now shooting 48% for the game….

    that’s working itself out well to our advantage for you guys that understand moving averages…..

  22. Howler 01/28/2012 at 9:59 PM #

    Hoping Painter realizes that he needs to “be” Howell right now

  23. bill.onthebeach 01/28/2012 at 9:59 PM #

    Why does Len Elmore look like he’s 65 years old…..

  24. wufpup76 01/28/2012 at 10:00 PM #

    Wood absolutely getting torched tonight.

  25. Wulfpack 01/28/2012 at 10:00 PM #

    Wood is just getting used on D by slow white guys.
