Can we possess the ball with a lead?
Can we convert Foul shots?
Can we defend the rim off the dribble?
Parade of fouls, some legit, others not changes direction of game.
TL and Cat need to shoot 500 Jumpers per day over the summer.
Cat has to have a jab-step jumper.
“3 off the ball fouls in one possession against us…. Then Patterson is draped all over warren… No call”
Win or Lose…we are not allowed to defend as other teams defend us.
TJ gotta go pro…you’ve earned it big guy. I think we are looking at an NBA allstar
Inside the locker room the speech should be something to the effect of
” In 2012 we were jobbed at Duke and in the ACC T vs the holes. We overcame then, made the NCAA T and reached the Sweet 16. Keep the pressure on and either win o make the powers that be continue to out themselves as biased”As fans, we are absolutely entitled to point out the crookedness of the system shed light on the gross injustice of the biased reffing. Last call not withstanding, the parade of questionable fouls in the 2H, clearly adjusting the reffing style to benefit Cuse, when they were struggling to score against our D is sickening.
AS fans we should also admit that we should be able to possess the ball long enough to get a foul at the end of the game and credit Cuse for a good last defensive posession.
When I looked at the schedule at the beginning of the year, I knew that NCSU would not be ALLOWED to win games @U*C and at Duke. The issue was moot as we did not deserve to win either of those games.
I wondered whether we would be allowed to win at SU…Now I know. Phantom call after phantom call in the 2h with SU on the ropes. The trip with no contact. No on-ball contact so refs start creating off ball fouls? The and-1 TJW play at the end of the game.
Yes, we should have been able to possess the ball for 15 seconds but…
Challenge to all deniers: Find 1 game where questionable call results in PACK win rather than PACK loss against top team.
Selection committee has no issue shafting the ACC. The brand has been tarnished for some time now.
PITT feels like a redemption game. I think we’ll have a good shot.
The holes’ season is very similar to ours. I think we have a good shot.
@ Clemson has been a house of horrors over the years.
TJW is improving every game. Now, with 3 point shot, he’s becoming unguardable. Can finally bust zones by putting TJW on one wing and RT on the other. Would love to see TJW go off in ACC T and finallly bring one home for the Pack. (hey, we can dream)
If we thread the needle, beating all remaining teams except UNC, SYR, and PITT, we fishing 10-8 with no top wins. IMO we’ll need 2 in the ACC T.
If we finish 10-8, beating PITT, SYR, UNC, and choking to one of others (a much higher probability than scenario above IMO) we probably need 1 in the ACC T.
If we manage 11-7, winning 9 of last 13 with at least 1 win over UNC, SYR, PITT, I think we are in even with 1st rd loss in ACC T….We’ll sweat like heck on selection Sunday though.
Only longshot win in last 7 is SYR. PITT and UNC are definitely winnable. I would be pleasantly surprised if we don’t lose @ Clemson or trip against at least 1 bottom feeder.
Fun to see different frosh step up at different critical times. More than than, looks like the young folks are rooting for and feeding off each other.
Don’ be hater.
Just because Cat is special does not mean that TL sucks.
TL ran the team competently with Cat on the bench and held his own on D. Glad TL is on out team….It been looooooong time since we have had more than 1 decent point guard (and many of the last 20 years TL would have been the best point on the team.
GoPACK – Agree. As I recall TL (39 mins) was still mostly running the point with both playing together in the 1st half. Cat played point of the 2H down the stretch, sparked the comeback and, earned the starting job. TL played 10 in the next game FGCU
Pretty obvious situation Neutralize Cat and Vandy then you get the team that lost to NC Central.
Credit to Detroit, they went right at Vandy and gave refs chance to make a call…well see that again.
Wont be the last time Cat play likes a frosh
Wont be the last time we see the foul and shoot 3 strategy if we are fortunate enough to be up with 3 to go.
Washington just a guy at this point..eats space but not a presence in the lane yet.
Freeman much more effective when Vandy on court.
Tyler steady but does not stir the drink
TJ more effective with Vandy/Freeman in
