55th Annual ACC Men's Basketball Tournament Round 1
#12 NC State (15-15, 4-12) vs. #5 Miami (21-9, 8-8)
Well, at the beginning of the season, most thought that NC State would NOT end up playing on Thursday. That prediction was wrong. In the first and only meeting between Miami and NC State during the regular season, Miami came into the RBC Center and choked away the game to hand Gavin Grant the game winning basket. Who knows what could happen.
Miami regular season results: DATE OPPONENT TIME/RESULT 11/09 FSO W 104-61 11/15 MAR W 85-61 11/16 VCU W 69-63 11/18 @ PROV W 64-58 11/24 MST W 55-51 11/28 ASU W 83-74 12/02 SJU W 66-47 12/08 @ FI W 67-53 12/13 @ MSU W 64-58 12/17 STET W 89-53 12/20 UNF W 85-63 12/23 NCAT W 95-64 12/29 WIN L 76-70 1/02 PENN W 88-62 1/12 GT W 78-68 1/15 @ BC L 76-66 1/19 @ NCST L 79-77 OT 1/23 UNC L 98-82 1/27 CLEM W 75-72 1/29 @ WFU L 70-68 2/02 @ DUKE L 88-73 2/06 FSU L 62-55 2/09 @ VT W 74-71 2/17 @ GT W 64-63 2/20 DUKE W 96-95 2/23 MARY W 78-63 2/27 @ CLEM L 79-69 3/01 UVA W 95-93 3/05 BC W 74-61 3/08 @ FSU L 75-72 OT

we've been playing like ass lately so we can conserve energy. Coach Lowe and the players KNEW we wouldn't be a top 4 seed and that we would have to play 4 games in the ACCt.. So they half assed it to be fresh for the run.
WE CAN DO IT!
GO PACK!

We should go old-school defensively.
Triangle and two. Double on McClinton with javi and fells. Triangle with Grant up top, Smith & Hickson down low. Why the hell not 3/9/2008 9:19:21 PM |

Out of the seven teams playing on Thursday besides us, Miami and BC are the two teams I'd want the most, and we get Miami. And out of the 4 teams who got byes, Va Tech is the team I think we match up best with. We can beat Miami and Va Tech. It wouldn't surprise me to make it to Saturday one bit, we have absolutely nothing to lose. But UNC would lay a country woodshed beating on Saturday against us.
PS- I thought the triangle-and-two was where you shadowed two players with man, and played a triangle zone with the other three defenders. Given our team's basketball IQ, this wouldn't work in a million years though. 3/9/2008 9:44:35 PM |

FSU beats wake

It normally is, but seeing how McClinton nearly beat State by himself last year, I say throw two on him.
And your right, not a chance in hell we actually play this scheme. But we have gone to a Box-and-one before ... maybe that would work?3/9/2008 9:51:36 PM |

They did win it last year, but overall, I'd say you're right.
Sure would be nice to see Wake knock them out on Friday. If their big white dude stays out of foul trouble, I'd say it's a possibility.

For this to happen, Carolina would have to lose to Wake because there's no fucking way we would beat them the way each team (State and Carolina) is playing right now. Of course there's no fucking way we beat anyone the way we're playing right now, so unless something changes, it's a moot point.3/9/2008 10:09:50 PM |
