#7 NC STATE vs #3 DUKE Preview (ACC Tournament Edition)

Time: 3:30-ish
TV: ACCN, ESPN

Recap of Last Night

Review
January 18th, 2014 (Durham, NC)
Duke 95
NC State 60

Nothing went right. I mean absolutely nothing. Even Buckets was just Average. It’s pretty simple, everything the Pack did in the first game, do the opposite.

ADVANTAGES

PREDICTION
KenPom likes Duke by 9, Vegas opened at Duke -10.

TJ is going to get tired today from carrying the heavy workload. I also think it’ll be a 5-on-8 game if it’s even close. The Pack used up all it’s magic on the final 6 shots last night and the run comes to an end today. Yes I’m being negative, it’s worked for the Pack so far.

    turner’s confidence has to be shattered at this point

    agree with other poster who suggest we do something else

    Turner HAS to keep shooting. A hot streak is only way we catch up.

    Ball game. Too bad we couldn’t last a little while longer.

    My skittish cat is crashing on my lap. He knows bad juju is in the air.

    Fuck, I’m depressed. Proud, but depressed.

    At least the refs aren’t deciding it. Props to that.

    I thought they’d do it to start the half but held off until it wasn’t necessary.

    I think you mean 4-6%.

    At the Under12 in the second…
    Dook 1 — Pack 0

    we seems to have weathered that run…
    but now..

    K will trade us out until free throw time if we let him…

    We Gott to outscore them at the rate of 3 baskets to 2 baskets over the next four minutes…

    K’s betting the ranch nobody but CUZ can do that…

    Zebras still being quiet.

    We’ve got these a$$ clowns right where we want them. Time to close the deal with a few thunder from down under Vandy slam downs.

    My inner tinfoil hat says that makes sense.

    Brando: Where is the confident player that is Warren?

    Answer: Getting Triple Teamed by 5* players.

    Why the need to declare “game over”?

    He’s a tough SOB to play for…
