Other than beating Duke, we’ve looked terrible the last two weeks. 🤬

It's between night and day compared to the blowout against them in the first game. I've only watched the last 5 minutes,but the zone has proven effective from what I've watched. Very frustrating stretch for Carolina this past week.

It’s not the offense. Cuse has shot over 60% for the game, if I’m correct.

Carolina has now played like crap for the last 2 weeks. The only game they've played well since Jan 30 was the Duke game. They better turn things around SOON.

Solid win for Carolina today. Bacot with a strong second half with 26 and 11. His best game since Duke. Their defense was their offense(if that makes sense) in this game. Carolina has built a brand on playing like that.

How long has it been since McCants has been away from Carolina? He evidently has new “claims” that further shame the program.

Carolina walks the line between clean and cheating just like everyone else. Sometimes going way way off that line. Move on, your like hearing Arian Foster talk now.

McCants might have been the most talented player to come through Chapel Hill since (and still since) Vince Carter but he was an absolute head case.

I think McCants left after they won the title in 05. I think he might be certifiable. He has a screw or 2 lose.

Mccants was drafted in ‘05 by the TWolves. And was immediately swindled by Peggy King (that was a pseudonym, I forget her real last name). He’s been an oddball ever since.

Peggy Hill
Peggy Bundy

But that would explain his weird timing.

The Peggy Show: Every athlete's worst nightmare

The same people who years ago entrusted her with millions—from Ricky Williams to Dennis Rodman to Travis Best—wince today at the mention of her name. They'll tell you how she left them broke. How she's a "chameleon ghost witch." How she's a forgery of the American Dream. And every athlete's...

Had to Google. I knew Ricky Williams was also swindled, but didn’t know most the intricate details in this article

I’d never heard any of that. Thanks for sharing.

I had no idea they were playing tonight. It sounds like I didn't miss anything judging from the score. Duke is getting hot at the perfect time. They're hitting on all cylinders.

It sure seems like it. They seem to be sharing the ball a lot better than they were. This was one of the few games where I felt like they did what they were supposed to do against an overmatched opponent.

The ball movement was very exciting. The off ball movement was even more exciting to watch

I hope Flip is ok, but I’ll never be a fan of his. He’s so inconsistent, undisciplined, and a defensive liability

Nobody is talking about the forearm he threw to the girl that sent her flying across the floor. When he turns around is when he gets hit. It is a bad look though and will put a damper on a win for Wake.

Edited due to new view of the accident.

Just to be clear for all the ones that show up after that game that aren’t regulars here: My previous comment has nothing to do with the court storming other than hoping he’s ok. But I can’t stand how he plays

I love these guys. Especially in March.

From the overhead slowmo shot it looks like Flip instigated it by trying to trip the WF fan and in turn caused his own injury.
