Biorhythms for UNC v Syracuse: Post Game Discussion

Meh... teams of 18- to 22-year-olds have been losing concentration and letting big leads slip since the beginning of time... especially now since Steph Curry changed the game to a 3pt bonanza. Heck, it seems like every NBA game I watch, one team builds a big lead, then the other team comes back. I think this is a much better reminder leading up to the dook game than a boring walk-off 30pt win. Now they remember that any team in the ACC is good enough to make a run back if you let your foot off their neck before the game is over.

Was not fun to watch, but the team will get more out of this than if Cuse had just rolled over and played dead.

That’s a good way to look at it.

Yep

Win or lose this game, it will give us an idea of this team's "character "

Aren’t you the poster who claimed free throwing shooting is all coaching?

Perhaps not the best arbiter of serious basketball discussion

Whatever. Take a potshot if you like. Ive expressed my opinions about the team without insulting them, the coaching staff, or anyone here on this board. Ive tried to engage and simply said it was unserious to entirely dismiss the possibility that Carolina could blow a big lead to lose a game in the same way they blew a huge lead to make it close.
 
It’s obvious. These 4 things can be true:
The fix was in to get the game under the spread for the gamblers.
Hubert helped facilitate it so he could have something to fuss at the team about and use it as a “teaching moment” leading up to d00k game.
A couple of the starters were in on the fix and took a dive; they tanked on purpose (and both made million$)
And, we suck and got lucky to even be up by 30 pts and our suckiness finally shone through at the end.

Now fit any such scenario into them hitting, what was at one point , 11 for 12. David Copperfield would have trouble with that one.

Exactly.
Totally far fetched all the way around.
Just taking the piss on folks trying to wrap their pea brain around some sort of excuse other than the Heels took the foot off the gas and Hubert did the Roy thing and gave them enough rope to hang themselves.

It is definitely a Roy move to give them the rope to aaaaaalmost hang themselves for the teachable moment.

Details. Did anyone watch dook hang 25 pts on BC at home in second half? Coached by the greatest coach since K with the best roster since, well, dook's last year
It's meaningless. Can happen when teams pack in in for the night. Very hard to turn back on.
