"Williams also said that Ty Lawson would miss Saturday’s game and predicted that he wouldn’t play next Wednesday against N.C. State either."

It probably doesn't even matter, but I feel this would be our only CHANCE to win.

We couldn't beat them if the whole starting 5 was out the way we are playing.

2/15/2008 5:56:51 PM

yeah if anything it would make our home loss to them even more embarrassing. But this like the pulled hammies threads except it could be true, good mojo FTVictory!

2/15/2008 5:58:50 PM

i don't see any reason for williams to play lawson against us. the game's won either way, might as well give him more time.

2/15/2008 6:04:18 PM

we will beat them if lawson doesnt play.

2/15/2008 6:12:31 PM

^ care to make it interesting?

2/15/2008 6:14:56 PM

^^ Yes, in the turnover category

hansblow + acl = ?

2/15/2008 6:16:42 PM

we'll still lose








NOT, we're going to fuckin win this gamel.

2/15/2008 6:16:49 PM

We'll win the gamel but lose the game.

2/15/2008 6:20:24 PM

as I said before, if anything it gives us a chance. Just depends on if our guys are going to show up to play or not. Lately I would guess the latter.

2/15/2008 6:22:05 PM

2/15/2008 6:22:24 PM

i think it'll make a bigggggggg difference, but we'll still have to play our absolute best to win.

2/15/2008 6:29:44 PM

it'll give us a better chance... but still not that much of a chance.

in case you haven't noticed, we fucking suck.

2/15/2008 6:32:55 PM

that's pretty much what i meant.

2/15/2008 6:39:43 PM

If Fells isnt high/asleep on the court - we have a shot. He needs to sink some 3 balls like last years UNC game

2/15/2008 6:53:16 PM

Lawson will play by the time he plays us. It's like how Tom Brady is questionable for every Pats game -- the purpose is to fake out idiots.

2/15/2008 6:55:58 PM

except lawson has actually been missing games... so who's the idiot?

2/15/2008 7:16:05 PM

instead of 30, we'll only lose by 20

2/15/2008 7:20:53 PM

he'll be back next season and the 49ers should be much better

2/15/2008 7:46:32 PM

Queue gay ass Quinton Thomas to join the other five PGs that have had career games against us this season (Hinnant, McClinton, Paulus, Grevis, and Rice).

We fucking suck and Thomas will have a double digit assists in this game.

Not sure if you guys are being sarcastic above about us not being able to win either way.


I dont know if you've seen the Carolina games this year sans Lawson but they are not that good without him.

We could easily beat them if Lawson is out. They struggle getting the ball to the right people and it neutralizes their #1 advantage against us which is transition offense and just all around dominant PG play.

2/15/2008 8:30:37 PM

yeah, it'll definitely be an advantage, but the way we have played in some games this season it still might not be enough

that being said, i think we'll have a decent chance of winning.

2/15/2008 8:32:25 PM

we *could* easily beat a number of teams we've been blown out by.

play w/ a little fuckin emotion and bottle up hansbrough....make it a one man game and it can be done. I really wouldn't be that suprised if nc state wins this one

2/15/2008 11:07:36 PM

who cares, all the starters could be out and we will still loose by double digits.

2/16/2008 12:14:33 AM

Wait, we have to play them again?

Dammit

2/16/2008 1:29:42 AM

sometimes when you win.... you really lose

2/16/2008 4:01:39 AM

yo someone bust hansborough in his knee cap

2/16/2008 4:48:25 AM

maybe our team is really just sandbagging to stage a miracle run in the ACC Tourney which leads us to the national title on the 25th anniversary of the 1983 miracle


rrrrrrrrrrightt.........

2/16/2008 9:46:20 AM

lawson is being a huge vagina at this point. he's been medically cleared to play for over a week now and still doesn't want to. i sprained my ankle a few years ago and was back playing within 10 days, and i didn't get 24/7 treatment on it. kid needs to man up

2/16/2008 7:02:33 PM

you play ACC ball?

2/16/2008 7:03:46 PM

not every ankle sprain is the same.

2/16/2008 7:08:09 PM

he will be back for our game.

2/16/2008 7:17:29 PM

well its not a high ankle sprain, and there aren't any tears or else he wouldn't be cleared to play. he especially looks bad when ginyard is playing on a sprained ankle and turf toe, deon has a hyperextended knee, green has the flu, thomas has back spasms and hansbrough got his toe nail removed. not to mention roy has essentially called him out for being a pansy

2/16/2008 7:17:44 PM

bitch bitch bitch whine whine whine. carolina fans are all the same.

2/16/2008 7:18:37 PM

how am i whining. go fuck yourself

2/16/2008 7:20:38 PM

why would you risk getting injured again when you know you are playing nc state?

To get a career high in points or assists??

2/16/2008 7:30:36 PM

this will have been 5 games he's missed now for an ankle sprain that he's been medically cleared to play on. i'm just questioning his heart at this point. i mean do you think julius hodge or ray felton would miss this much time for the same injury?

2/16/2008 7:45:42 PM

What's more important? Being 100% healthy for the NCAA Tournament or beating NC State by 75?

He's undoubtly a whiny faggot, but being medically cleared and being healthy can be two separate things.

2/16/2008 7:49:47 PM

i understand the difference, but like i said, when almost all his teammates have ailments and are still playing, it just makes me wonder. whatever though, carry on

2/16/2008 7:54:39 PM

lawson's playing for the nba. why would he risk getting seriously injured in college w/ the draft just around the corner?

2/16/2008 9:23:03 PM

They beat VT by 40 today without him so they probably won't have a problem with our team seeing as how State always stinks it up for a whole half...then again they almost lost to UVA

[Edited on February 17, 2008 at 1:47 AM. Reason : .]

2/17/2008 1:46:32 AM

yeah, i was going to post the same comment
they beat a VT team thats about as good as we are, currently

at least this game isnt in the nose dome and its at home...that might give us a little chance
but if the team cant come together the day we honor the 25 yr anni of the last championship team then i dont see them having the heart to beat unc at home

2/17/2008 11:38:11 AM

wow this is almost like a real hammy thread

2/17/2008 12:30:08 PM

Yeah I can hear the announcers now

"QUENTIN THOMAS HAS FINALLY ARRIVED
HE'S FINALLY FOUND THAT SPARK HE NEEDS TO BE A DOMINANT PLAYER IN THIS LEAGUE"

Then he gets drafted late first round

what exactly did roy say? also are you sure he's been medically cleared, is that why he's dressing out? I must admit I'm getting really frustrated at this point too

2/17/2008 4:07:24 PM

i heard he had been cleared a week or two ago but didnt want to come back until he was 100% or something

i guess that makes sense if UNC keeps winning without him
