The good news is we only have 4 games in left in December. Hopefully Hellems can be back by the Clemson game in 4 weeks at the latest.
I don't have any confidence in winning any games he misses though. He's an integral part of this team. 12/7/2019 7:41:09 PM |

Interesting chart I saw today. I wouldn't have guessed we shot such a high percentage of shots from 3pt range or near the rim. Hopefully we can keep this up.

^ correct. Which just kinda proves my point about the randomness of events that leads to a team covering or not covering a point spread.

why are we so streaky? We lost the lead against ga tech, and we lost it twice today. Other teams have come back against us too. We had a great run to come back against memphis. I have a guess people will say it is because of braxton/andree defense, but I have to think there is something else (I did notice that miller from uncg had a good run when beverly seemed to be guarding him). 12/15/2019 10:27:18 PM |

what teams aren't streaky? 12/15/2019 10:30:32 PM |
horosho Suspended 2001 Posts user info edit post |
Its because of our defense. When we press, or apply pressure, play are consistently out of position and get beat to the basket for easy buckets and a lot of fouls on us. When our players don't get beat off the pressure or get in foul trouble, we force turnovers or get stops and then go on a run. We gamble all game. every game.
Its feast or famine like in football if a team blitzes a lot. They are going to go on big streaks when they get sacks and are going to give up big plays when the blitz doesn't come home.
Contrast that with a team like Virginia that prioritizes playing consistent, conservative defense all game. Their streaks are based on when they make shots and when they don't. 12/15/2019 10:40:10 PM |

tower All American 12280 Posts user info edit post |
I think it's more a mix of that we play fast so more possessions and that our offense gets complacent once we're up big. Just seems a lot more Daniels going 1 on 5 or guys forcing shots to get their own offense happens once we're up 10+. If we stayed focus full time on O like Virginia does on D we'd probably have the best offense in college basketball, but we don't because we don't have the same level of discipline 12/16/2019 2:34:26 AM |

Grundy’s game winner vs UNCG 19 years ago
-----------------------------------------------
That Grundy, Miller, Inge, Thorton, Wilkins team may be my all time favorite. Isn't that the team that lost to Maryland in the ACC Title game with the ridiculous technical foul to start the 2nd half? We were up big, about to finally win some shit. In my mind that was the beginning of "some NC State Shit" 12/17/2019 12:28:10 PM |
