So you would rather them look nonchalant? I want more damn emotion, lol.

i see la tech is one of those pressing teams that cant handle being pressed (even our shitty press)

comeback?

12/23/2014 8:35:24 PM

The colored announcer is not good at his job.

12/23/2014 8:36:20 PM

Is ESPN3 1:30 behind for anyone else? Just checked the box score

12/23/2014 8:46:39 PM

the way LT is choking this game away is very reminiscent of another team i watch...

Channeling St. Louis in the 2nd half, I like it.

12/23/2014 8:48:58 PM

To his credit, Cat has played so much better in the 2nd half

12/23/2014 8:49:28 PM

Cat is good when he runs quick half court sets. Fast breaks and the regular sets we run that eat up 25+ seconds of clock...not so much

12/23/2014 8:51:54 PM

spot on

12/23/2014 8:56:54 PM

that possession...

12/23/2014 8:58:18 PM

12/23/2014 9:01:14 PM

god dammit trevor why couldnt you play gott d aka give them the wide open 3

12/23/2014 9:02:04 PM

Someone tell me more about the technical foul.

12/23/2014 9:02:43 PM

martin hit a 3 and talked shit to the guy guarding him like he does in every game

12/23/2014 9:03:31 PM

credit where its due, heck of a comeback.

12/23/2014 9:06:46 PM

what a comeback

12/23/2014 9:07:25 PM

Good game, vintage pack in the second half. Early Christmas present wrapped in NC State red baby.I'm too much in the Christmas spirit to talk smack so Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays fuckers!!!

12/23/2014 9:11:37 PM

checked into the game down 15 at the start of our comeback. at first i was like , but then i was like

12/23/2014 9:13:04 PM

I'm surprised they didn't foul us in the last couple minutes. Oh well, can't complain

12/23/2014 9:13:59 PM

About the time I turned on the tv, we overcame a huge deficit. You're welcome, Wolfpack fans.

12/23/2014 9:21:36 PM

Bell towers red tonight.

12/23/2014 9:26:34 PM

Earl's holiday season gets off on the wrong foot thanks to a Wolfpack victory

12/23/2014 9:27:30 PM

Complete opposite for me. I went to celebrate the big win and nobody was out there.

where you at?

[Edited on December 23, 2014 at 9:33 PM. Reason : whens the last time we overcame an 18 point deficit?]

12/23/2014 9:31:28 PM

I couldn't find this game on in my area. Can someone recap how we pulled off the comeback. I see that we stopped turning the ball over and rebounded better in the 2nd half. Was our D that good or was LT that horrible.

This thread needs a "everything went better than I expected" photo for the 2nd half

12/23/2014 9:37:12 PM

looked like BJ Anya didn't play at all in the 2nd half and we went to more of a 4 guard lineup with Barber, Lacey, Turner and Martin.

12/23/2014 9:55:33 PM

I called for that lineup after purdue game. Its our best bet to create space

Gott hinted he was going to do this after the WVU game ... basically because our bigs can't score. I'm all for this lineup.

it wasn't as of 45 minutes ago, or after a victory beer at the PR which ended 15 minutes ago

anyways

that's as loud of a non-sellout game as I've ever heard in that arena. 3 stars of the game were Washington, Abu, and (2nd half) Cat.

Abu is going to be an absolute beast. he has moves in the post, and is also able to get open consistently. he was openly pissed about not getting the ball while open in the 1st half.

gotta hope that it's a season-defining win

12/23/2014 10:16:22 PM

Abu has been coming around lately (the WV game as the obvious outlier) and Washington needs to develop some consistency, but this team is night & day when they can get some offensive production from the post.

Hopefully Cat can keep up the aggressiveness too in taking the ball to the rim instead of settling for jumpers late in the shot clock. Would be nice to see a bounce back game from Ralston against Cincinnati.

12/23/2014 10:20:05 PM

Cat passed out of a wide-open lane multiple times in the 1st half. it was tough to watch.

12/23/2014 10:21:27 PM

^Yep a couple of times he was too quick to dish when he should've finished himself.

Second half Cat was maybe the best he's been all year. Great second half from him, Washington, Lacey, Abu.

how would you consider the "source" to be trolling?

what's there to fall for?

You just asked how Earl could be trolling. I think you're too far gone

I'll just leave this here and let you figure out the rest: https://www.ncsu.edu/about/history-and-tradition/belltower-celebrations/

don't think he fell for a troll so much as he doesn't understand when the bell tower is turned red.

12/24/2014 1:34:48 AM

I got in bed at the half and watched reruns of something terrible--I can't even remember--please tell me the comeback wasn't exciting. I checked the score every once in a while but not enough to switch on ESPN3 and watch the end.

12/24/2014 1:38:14 AM

Best part was the 18-2 run over about 4-5 minutes where we went from down 50-32 to down 52-50. Then we just slowly overtook them.

You can watch the replay on Watch ESPN.

Best stretch was Ralston hitting a running jumper, Lacey hitting a transition 3, then Cat flying down the court for a transition layup -- all in the stretch of about 30 seconds. Crowd went nuts.

12/24/2014 9:33:35 AM

yeah, we need to funnel it to Lacey more. Wofford game would have won if we had just giving it to him every possession in the last 3 min. Shit, that's what they did to get back in the game.

I can't imagine how the latter wouldn't come up while victory-beering at the PR.

12/24/2014 9:43:22 AM

^^^^I wasn't feeling well, and everybody knows Valvano had a caveat for not feeling well. It just didn't get as much publicity for some reason.

12/24/2014 10:35:41 AM

Surprised La Tech's 1st half alley-oop didn't make the Top 10.

Biggest comeback since Gott's first season when we were down to Texas at the Meadowlands. At least this one didn't have CJ Leslie looking like he goal tended the tying 3 point shot.

12/24/2014 11:53:00 AM

I like to go to the gym during our games...I tell myself if I push harder then the team will as well. I got on the stationary bike when we were down 18 and didn't stop until the game was over. I like the false feeling of contribution.
