NC STATE at VIRGINIA TECH Game Thread

13-14 Basketball281

Time: 2:00
TV: RSN (Fox Sports South)
Announcers: Tom Werne, Dan Bonner

Sorry guys for the lack of a preview but major computer problems is the culprit. Add in the downer that is the Syracuse and Clemson games then the effort level has reflected the Pack’s performance in Clemson.

If the Pack wins then there’s nothing to be excited about and deserve a slow clap:

If the Pack loses then…

Predictor:
KenPom thinks we win by 2. I’m done guessing.

    Look at WBS being all slick and finishing that off.

    Rick I’ve been saying the same thing but have been told numerous times:
    1. Our super transfer Lacey will work out where no transfer has before.
    2. Our freshmen players will improve magically as Sophomores more so than ever has before.
    3. Our midrated incoming freshmen will carry the load more than the current midrated freshmen have this year.

    I have seen the twins play. They are going to carry any offensive load.
    Yeah no way all of those thing happen

    Lewis superb today … also impressed with how active Freeman has been in limited time.

    Bad reach Frenchie…the Aussie had good D position.

    The only important question left to be answered today is ….

    “Do we finish this game strong and going away or do we limp into the locker room with a modest win??”

    Vandy’s tip-ins only work when he’s on defense.

    Given toys team lost to wake and central, nothing is guaranteed

    I understand why they would play “Triangle and 2” (with the 2 both on Buckets), but it sure is making things easy for the other 4 guys.

    “Vandy’s tip-ins only work when he’s on defense.”

    ^Apparently … poor fella. It’d be nice for him to be rewarded – he’s had a solid game on the offensive end w/r/t ball movement and screens. Still woefully un-quick on defense, but that’s ok Vbeg.

    KW has that same problem Avie Lester used to have…can’t make a move to the bucket without putting it on the floor first.

    I’ll give the boys in red this much, at least they are trying this game.

    We do NOT need Le Nard taking midrange jumpers. Down to 8, because we are sleepwalking.

    Is it just me or are those rims extremely dead? Balls just die when they hit it.

    I would think about going three guard for awhile.

    THREE defenders on Buckets there. Barksdale should get T’d up.

    ^Avie Lester…. the proud owner of the “ugliest” jump shot in the history of NC State basketball…
    Not even Jim Valvano could fix that!

    Nevertheless… few worked harder than Avie…
    He played about 10 years over in Europe… and is back in North Carolina now…

    Now the officials are physically assaulting us…I knew it would come to that eventually. 😀

    I vote for three guards and a Hippo.

    No matter what…we MUST get Frenchie and Vandy outta there. Le Nard will fight someone, and Vandy is plodding.
