you can call a flagrant for excessive contact which is what that was. We would've got the flagrant and probably will with about 4 minutes to go in the game.

AWESOME halftime banter all positives for NC State

I seriously hope somebody recorded that!

That follow-up by CJW on Calvin's 2nd miss FT in a row after taking a hard foul, that was a turning point for me. Great team play by NC State. The good Wood, the good Howell, the good Calvin, the good CJW, the good Lorenzo, they look to have all showed up today = a WIN

3/18/2012 1:25:43 PM

we've had ft issues all season

3/18/2012 1:25:53 PM

LETS FINISH THIS SHIT

"so its flagrant because the bodies hit before ball contact happened?"

no, it's flagrant because he looked to take out the body. "the ball was secondary" means that he just happened to hit the ball, too, but that wasn't his aim

3/18/2012 1:26:25 PM

Calling that flagrant is what makes college bball unwatchable at times. That is a good hard foul. Give me that any day of the week over the bullshit flop-fest that the sport tends to turn in to.

3/18/2012 1:26:52 PM

Looks like a ton of Gtown fans in the stands today

3/18/2012 1:27:31 PM

I haven't seen "the good Wood" out there today

what's he done in the 1st half? 1/2 FG, 1/2 FT, 0 rebounds, 1 assist

you must not have been paying attention since about halfway through conference play.

Anyone else's official stream getting audio pops? I've got it running through my receiver and it's annoying as shit to have this loud fucking clicking/popping

3/18/2012 1:28:37 PM

The State fans are a lot louder though

3/18/2012 1:28:37 PM

^^ nope

against every other team he's played with the size and talent of gtown he's usually 0-5 with 3 turnovers at the half

3/18/2012 1:29:54 PM

The Hoya board is bitching about officiating too

3/18/2012 1:29:57 PM

well that's cause the officiating has sucked the dicks

3/18/2012 1:30:09 PM

second half.

Wood might be having a rough time, but he is certainly contributing out there

Hopefully they start to commit to the paint more and he can light up some 3's

3/18/2012 1:31:33 PM

What fouls did everybody think were bad? The double dribble, what else?

State fans are just programmed to bitch about officiating no matter what.

[Edited on March 18, 2012 at 1:32 PM. Reason : I think Georgetown fans have more reason to complain, actually]

Fuck you. Wood's made some pretty well rounded plays today, defensively and driving to the basket. Just because he's not taking contested shots doesn't mean he's not making a difference.

3/18/2012 1:32:01 PM

Welcome to ACC officiating, GTown

3/18/2012 1:32:15 PM

Wood's playing decent defense too. And as usual, he's completely occupying a defender at all times.

3/18/2012 1:32:21 PM

Every message board everywhere complains about officiating. Nothing new.

It's been fine both ways. Only one I have beef with was the no double dribble call.. That's not a judgment call, it's black and white.

3/18/2012 1:33:13 PM

We need to tighten up the defense. We're keeping them from making much happen on the inside, which is great, but they're running screens and getting open looks for 3 all day long.

3/18/2012 1:33:14 PM

OLIVIA WILDE HAS ABANDONED US

3/18/2012 1:33:15 PM

we have a 6'10 guy that can't score with the ball under the basket and everyone else 3-85 feet behind him.

definitely Howell's "2nd foul." You know, where he was standing there

Flop all over the place when Sims is taking it to the basket

3/18/2012 1:34:21 PM

We have to shut down Sims..

3/18/2012 1:34:22 PM

key to second half : get sims back on bench

with your blatant uconn homerism, it's hard to take your "objectivity" seriously. but yeah, that missed double-dribble was ridiculous.

3/18/2012 1:35:10 PM

yep, gotta get sims out of it. fast


surprised Howell didn't get a reach-in there. it'll come soon

will give him that much. even the announcers mentioned him playing a lot harder than earlier this year

was wide open for 3 there twice... wonder when they're going to pull the trigger

3/18/2012 1:36:31 PM

nice job getting the tie up there by howell

3/18/2012 1:36:32 PM

Dangerous move by Howell. Glad that was a jump ball, and not a foul called against him.

3/18/2012 1:36:33 PM

Howell

3/18/2012 1:36:57 PM

OFF THOMPSON III WTF

3/18/2012 1:37:02 PM

love the effort from both teams.. that's why you get a bunch of jump balls
