The line opened as a pick 'em and now NC State is favored by 1.5.

I just hope we play loose.

Wow that was heartbreaking. The team keeps playing hard, but we just don't have enough scorers and I hate Gregory's offense. They play hard on defense and rebound well but miss a lot of easy shots and don't make the extra pass.

Totally agree. How is Marcus inbounding the ball right there? He needed to be the one taking the free throws

ARGH!!! Tried staying off line hoping that'd make a difference... Obviously it didn't.

Unfortunately TJack just can't seem to make a shot and become the player we/he wants him to be.
The MGH "charge" was a bad call.
Why didn't we foul them after they inbounded for the last time and force them to the FT line. worst case is they tie it up...

@Peacone36 - what do think the "problem" with Tadric is?

We would have only fouled them if we were up by 3. I don't think when you're up by 2 you foul and put a guy on the line to tie it. At that point you just have to play D. If Q had made 1, then we foul so they can't tie at the line. All we needed was 1 there.
Also, anyone else feel like our good offensive rebounding statistics are skewed by the number gimmies we miss around the basket? When you miss that many shots that close, you're going to have the shooter grab his own rebound a lot of times.

Cox racks up the rebounds by shooting 50% on possessions w/in 3 feet of basket.

Why we you change the line-up at the end that gave you the lead. All that was on the coach. Q probably played 3 minutes but he's shooting free throws in crunch times, That was a dumb move on the coach part.

He's normally a decent FT shooter. (Better than Corey or Tadric, IMO)

There are only 2 guys on this team that should touch the ball when you know we are going to be fouled. TJ or MGH. MGH was 8-9 on the day from the line, has been there before, and is shooting 80% from the line in ACC play. TJ has missed 1 FT this season. I know Q is a good FT shooter, but he hadn't played much.
This has been one of the most frustrating ACC seasons I have ever been through. This team should be much better than 1-8 in ACC. AT worst this team should be 13-8, 4-5. Probably should be a game or 2 better than that.
TJ is finally starting to look a little like the players I saw film of in high school.
MGH after a rough start has really adjusted nicely to having to be the main guy. He does not get the benefit of the call though like all conference players tend to. That is not the first time he has been called for a charge in a similar situation.
A good coach would have this team (and definately next year's team) in the NCAA. That is how fine a line this team is playing. it is sub.500, but frankly could be an NCAA team pretty easily.

Of course by TJ it is safe to assume #10 (Travis) and not #1 (Tadric)
RR is right, IMO. The team is so close to having being a .500 in the ACC. If we can get a couple of more 'lights" to come on for a couple of players we can have 5 - 8 ACC wins this season. If not, then 1-17 isn't impossible. ( )

)I don't know the kid, I'd have to guess confidence. I'd throw the kid $100 to try and buy a basket at this point.

Per @CuseJacket - "MGH: thought the charge call was a good call... i lost my balance"
Surprised. Must be what happened because that's one heck of an HONEST comment to come from him regarding the play at the end of regulation.
