" And what was Bryce thinking fouling the guy up 5 with 27 seconds left?"

When I watched the replay, it looked like Bryce did nothing but stand there with his arms out. The UVA player grabbed Bryce's arm and pulled it into him to create the contact. BS call

1/21/2020 9:10:45 AM

Yeah that was tough. CJ should not have had his arm out. Clark was super crafty there to grab the arm and draw the foul.

Sucks we lost to GT without Markell and DJ. We need this next one. Pastner owns us though. Devoe has an iffy ankle. Would be nice if he's out.

1/21/2020 11:42:11 AM

^^this was from last week but shows our remaining schedule. We've equaled last year's quad 1 wins but will be a struggle to go beyond that.

^^ and if Bates isn’t healthy for Saturday then it’ll hurt too. GTs big men are good and we need Funderburk and Bates both.

We're in 4th place in the ACC.... And just think, a couple games ago there were people on TWW saying we should should shut down basketball and forefeit the rest of our games this season.... and they'll be saying it again after our next loss. Whiny bitches.

1/21/2020 1:28:33 PM

No one said all that. I think someone said that as a sarcastic response to my post that the season (tourney chances) was over. Look, I'll be delighted if I turn out to be wrong on that but just as we shouldn't overreact to our next loss, we also shouldn't overreact to barely beating a historically offensive UVA team on an off night. You have to admit we did everything to lose that game and they just couldn't hit shots.

You have to keep in mind that the weak teams were front-loaded in our ACC schedule. We should have 1 or 2 fewer losses right now. We've only played 2 teams in the top half of the historically weak conference and already have 3 losses. If we were a stock I'd sell right now at this peak price. They are talking about the ACC only getting 5 or 6 teams so we have a lot of work to do and its going to require making free throws down the stretch which might be a problem considering our "leader" and pg is a historically bad free throw shooter. We missed the front ends for fouls 7,8, and 9. Thats usually going to be a loss.

-Learn how to shoot fts
-Get everyone healthy
-learn how to adjust defensive game plans for specific teams (saw some zone lastnight so +++)
-stop wasting funderburk fouls and be proactive about foul trouble. have him start the game with 4 fouls.

If we can do all four of those things we'll be in good shape.

1/21/2020 1:58:47 PM

We have a clear top 3 of Bryce, Markell and Dj
1 (or 2) of those 3 have been missing for all 3 acc losses.

Not to mention time missed by Hellems, Bates and yes even Andree.

1/21/2020 2:14:36 PM

But we're not really missing Andree.

1/21/2020 2:22:56 PM

Hey Justin, we get it, you don't like Andree but you like attention.

I was so ready to fact check this with the smart ass comment that we actually beat VMI in KK’s first season but then I realized you did specify ACC teams from Va. And now we get a chance to finally beat a Tech on Saturday!

1/21/2020 2:25:56 PM

Man, I'm still stoked that we beat UVA at home. Those goons have been owning us for quite some time. Now, hopefully we can get some sweet and savory revenge against GT, and then give UNC a proper ass wiping.

1/21/2020 4:49:02 PM

I'd much rather whip their ass than wipe it

1/21/2020 5:05:39 PM

I would like to both whip their ass and teach them proper ass wiping etiquette.

1/21/2020 5:08:46 PM

LOL, that typo changed the entire context of the situation.

Does anyone know what the Wolfpack Club seat sections are for this year's ACC Tournament in Greensboro?

1/22/2020 9:55:55 AM

No, because the ACC hasn't released it yet. But it's on a rotation as far as who gets courtside, corners and endzones. We last had sideline seats in 2017, so it's probably still a year away from coming back around to us.

I think the ACC usually releases the seating chart in mid February

1/23/2020 11:07:03 AM

GT playin good as of late. I am also assuming that Bates will be out again, due to age...

1/23/2020 12:23:11 PM

yeah GT's bigs present problems for us especially without Bates

1/23/2020 12:44:57 PM

Andree and Bates are both questionable

1/23/2020 1:59:20 PM

Andree's skill is questionable

hey don't let these fuckin bullies get you down just because you have an opinion.

1/23/2020 9:19:54 PM

Funderburk’s defense on Simms in the Clemson game was pretty impressive, just having him back will be a difference maker versus the first game.

Thankful for conference realignment that gives us a chance at redemption against GT that wouldn't be possible with the old ACC.

1/25/2020 1:10:09 PM

Wait what

1/25/2020 1:46:23 PM

That feels like a reference to an old tww meme thing but I can’t remember

Also, Bates and Andree are unlikely to play according to giglio’s twitter.

1/25/2020 2:52:26 PM

So far it’s been ugly

1/25/2020 4:19:50 PM

Ugh

1/25/2020 4:26:53 PM

Hug

1/25/2020 4:32:12 PM

Hellems can’t throw it in the ocean. Sheesh

1/25/2020 4:35:31 PM

another game where we listen to the opponents’ football coach for like 10 mins.

1/25/2020 4:41:52 PM

Markell looking like his 2019 self. He’s been coming alive. That’s good to see.

Hellems is...trying his best, I guess.

Am I the only one here? It’s ok if I am. I don’t mind.

1/25/2020 5:24:21 PM

Nobody can hit wide open shots, no one can hold on to the goddamn ball

1/25/2020 5:29:05 PM

Welcome, Halo! I’m not alone.

And I agree. Bryce has been a total non factor. Hellems has been bad, we can’t get Funderburk going. It’s all Markell right now. Braxton was good in the first half, but a non factor now.

[Edited on January 25, 2020 at 5:33 PM. Reason : This game is totally not fun ]

1/25/2020 5:32:56 PM

Guys. I’m getting close to starting a Devon Daniels appreciation thread. Is our comptroller here? Can they tell me if we’ve got room in the budget?

1/25/2020 5:36:40 PM

I've always like Daniels fwiw

1/25/2020 5:37:30 PM

Hellems and Bryce have played good defense despite the ass offense and ass foul calls. ass ass ass.

1/25/2020 5:38:53 PM

Jesus. Funderburk was hammered there. No call

1/25/2020 5:46:38 PM

Final four refs

1/25/2020 5:52:24 PM

damn Cole sucks at free throws

[Edited on January 25, 2020 at 5:53 PM. Reason : 46.7% before just going 0/2]

1/25/2020 5:52:48 PM

GT gets the call. We didn’t. Fuck that.
