no reason = 2 fouls

1/11/2012 9:57:45 PM

14-1 run shouldn't happen, whether or not CJ Leslie is on the bench.

1/11/2012 9:58:10 PM

Seriously, we cannot lose to fucking georgia tech at home. That's a Sid Lowe type loss.

1/11/2012 9:58:19 PM

lol...CJ had to come out. We can't keep him off the court the entire 2nd half by giving him his 3rd foul....

1/11/2012 9:58:26 PM

i wouldve put leslie back in when howell had to go out. we were already playing like shit and it was clear the TDT/Painter combo wasnt going to stop the bleeding

1/11/2012 9:58:48 PM

there was so much "nc state shit" in that half it was ridiculous

just checking in to see if the sky was falling..

1/11/2012 10:01:08 PM

Hopefully it's out of our system for half 2.

1/11/2012 10:01:10 PM

Thank you for the edit cali...shit is definitely not hilarious

Oh yes, I mad

1/11/2012 10:02:13 PM

Is there some weird rule I don't know about in college basketball that says if a player fouls out the other team gets a 10 point bonus?


Last I checked, If a player fouls out he can't play anymore.

If you sit him on the bench, he isn't playing anyway.

So the times where he doesn't pick up any more fouls you lose.

The times where he does pick up more fouls, it's the same effect.


Foul trouble is meaningless, it's some crazy shit coaches developed in the 1920's and now try to pretend is a legit reason to sit someone on the bench so they can blame foul trouble for a loss.

1/11/2012 10:02:52 PM

Adding a coach Gott isnt going to make our scoring droughts go away...
we've had those since Herb was here!

1/11/2012 10:03:25 PM

We need to come out aggressive in the 2nd half, like we did against Syracuse. GT wont be hot from 3 pt range all game.

1/11/2012 10:04:43 PM

They Can't freaking miss. They were shooting 30% from three for the season.

They got to punch these guys in the mouth to start the second half. We are doing everything wrong the first half. Missed FT, bad shots, turnovers, and horrible D.

1/11/2012 10:05:08 PM

Foul trouble is legit if you're NC State and you want a shot at having your best offensive threat in for the end of the game when we have that characteristic blow a ten point lead shit going on.

1/11/2012 10:05:59 PM

one thing im worried about is gt's garbage mid major coach seems like he's trying to get them to play garbage slowdown mid major ball

this could be bad news in the 2nd half since our D usually breaks down about 25 seconds into the shot clock

hopefully they just come out and brick a ton of 3s thinking they can actually shoot now

Time to see how we respond to a half where nothing went right. 2nd half will be a big test of how much we have improved since last season.

They weren't hitting them the first 10 minutes of that half. They only started falling for them after that. There's no excuse for our play tonight.

1/11/2012 10:06:44 PM

There's a 50% chance when I go to a bar I might not pick up a girl to fuck.

So I think I'll just stay home tonight and jerk off so that I don't have a 50% of not getting laid.

1/11/2012 10:07:47 PM

^ if that's your story

1/11/2012 10:08:31 PM

there we go

1/11/2012 10:10:07 PM

NFL teams only convert 40% of their 3rd downs.


So technically, they'd be better off punting on 3rd down, because there is a 60% chance they won't get the first down anyway.

60% > 40%



See, you can come up with all kinds of crazy theories, but ultimately you are a better team with your better players playing. It doesn't even qualify as game theory it's so simple to understand.

1/11/2012 10:10:13 PM

Team Calvin

1/11/2012 10:10:44 PM

Finally. We hit a 3.

1/11/2012 10:11:12 PM

Leslie is playing great tonight. We need to keep feeding him inside.

FUCK the 3s by GT.

1/11/2012 10:11:14 PM

They shot a high % at 3. Then we shot at the line.

1/11/2012 10:11:33 PM

mfon udofia is a horrible shooter

the fact that hes made two 3s tonight, wide open or not, is bullshit

1/11/2012 10:11:49 PM

Damnit, where was that foul?

1/11/2012 10:12:50 PM

are you serious???????

1/11/2012 10:12:55 PM

FSN keeps giving Ga Tech our points when we score. Get it together!




Wow, Calvin DEFINITELY didn't foul. Ugh.

1/11/2012 10:13:06 PM

complete horseshit on that foul

1/11/2012 10:13:13 PM

wtf was that foul?

1/11/2012 10:13:16 PM

BULLSHIT

1/11/2012 10:13:20 PM

These refs clearly hate CJ Leslie.

What a bullshit call.

1/11/2012 10:13:28 PM

that was a HORSE SHIT jump ball call

is that the same ref who just made up a foul on calvin?

1/11/2012 10:13:35 PM

that's why CJL had to sit with 2 FWIW

1/11/2012 10:13:45 PM

They clearly don't want us to win this game.

1/11/2012 10:13:50 PM

goddammit what a ridiculous foul call

1/11/2012 10:14:01 PM

^^^ so he could play a minute and a half into the 2nd? worked out well

[Edited on January 11, 2012 at 10:14 PM. Reason : ]

1/11/2012 10:14:19 PM

gracious howell is really bad around the basket

1/11/2012 10:14:27 PM

CJ Williams reminds me of Marcus Melvin with his careless turnovers.

It's like, he clearly has the ball-skills to control the ball, but he's just so careless with it sometimes.

1/11/2012 10:14:48 PM

well if that was 4 he would be out for a long time



HOWELL GET IT TOGETHER!!!!

1/11/2012 10:14:51 PM

Howell needs to come out if he can't hit these shots.

1/11/2012 10:15:04 PM

howell isnt a good enough shooter to be 76% at the line. this is regression, not choking

1/11/2012 10:15:24 PM

LoBrow is having a bad game tonight. He can't seem to get it to fall.

1/11/2012 10:16:05 PM

cannot fucking lose to GT at home

1/11/2012 10:16:17 PM

wtf williams

god damn butter fingers

1/11/2012 10:16:20 PM

Really? Offensive foul? Little bit of an acting job?? a little bit?

1/11/2012 10:17:03 PM

put calvin back in. no point in saving him if we're going to be down 15

1/11/2012 10:17:09 PM

this is freaking pathetic

1/11/2012 10:17:24 PM

We just weren't ready for ACC play.

Team had 15 games to figure this thing out and they haven't done it yet.

GT will go cold though, we have to get ourselves back into this game by the 8 minute mark and we'll have a chance.
