State UNC game thread

Since I started the game threads we are 3-0. Since I am obviously the reason we keep winning I will keep doing the game thread. Ironically I will not be watching the game or able to join the game thread as my wife committed me to attend her nephew’s daughter’s baptism. Sigh. That means someone else will need to carry on the nickname “Buckets” and start the new one “Player X”.

I have no idea how this game will go. They will be playing “small ball” and we will be looking to score in the paint. Whichever team is able to force their will on the other will win. We should be more consistent as we will not be relying on the three, so if UNC gets hot we need to minimize the damage and keep our heads. This will be a close but high scoring game. I think we win it 87-83.

    No fear here. Play our game and nothing to worry about. Let those shooters roam free and it could be a long night. Must guard the perimeter.

    I hope we don’t take a big lead in the first 30 mins. That would be the kiss of death. I have no real feeling one way or the other. Just nervous.

    I do hate losing to them. But I have to say that I love beating them a whole lot too.

    I’d say it’s about even. My mood for the rest of the weekend will definitely be influenced one way or the other.

    How sweet it would be if Rick was making game threads in April!

    They need to go ahead and restart this damn race.

  6. Wufpacker 02/23/2013 at 3:56 PM #

    Agreed Amy. Looking likely to be ESPNNews to start the game I guess.

    Daugherty should be ashamed for not being at the game anyway.

    Are we really going to have to watch wreck clean-up instead of the first half of our game?

    The feed usually switches for “home market” games. Not that such would help Wuf and other non-locals.

    Don’t people just watch auto racing for the wrecks? Why the shit do they stop ’em for bad weather?

  11. PackAmy 02/23/2013 at 4:03 PM #

    I have it on ESPN News now.

    Time to pound these phuckers.

    Buckets!

  14. Wufpacker 02/23/2013 at 4:04 PM #

    Buckets with the nice start. 2pt, 2 boards already.

  16. Wufpacker 02/23/2013 at 4:05 PM #

    Time to kneecap Hairston.

  17. Wufpacker 02/23/2013 at 4:06 PM #

    Why did we call timeout?

  18. Wulfpack 02/23/2013 at 4:06 PM #

    Leslie MUST get out on Hairston. MUST

  19. wufpup76 02/23/2013 at 4:07 PM #

    Leslie can’t allow that much space obviously … Go ahead and get cocky Hairston

  20. Wulfpack 02/23/2013 at 4:07 PM #

    Terrible defense so far.

  21. Wufpacker 02/23/2013 at 4:08 PM #

    I think we got a break on that call.

  22. Wulfpack 02/23/2013 at 4:09 PM #

    Leslie is killing us.

  23. bill.onthebeach 02/23/2013 at 4:09 PM #

    espn… needs to get this nascar bs off…

  24. Wulfpack 02/23/2013 at 4:10 PM #

    Go to espn news.

  25. Wulfpack 02/23/2013 at 4:10 PM #

    Could have forced #2 on Hairston there but no call. Go right at him. He is key.
