šŸ€ ACC Basketball - January 2024

I jinxed it. They have looked really good the last few minutes. Like good enough to where if our execution isnā€™t there Saturday, they will toy with us. Yeesh.

Not deep or super long and donā€™t pressure the ball much. But they can score it. Got our work cut out for us again.

Well, I was out and didnā€™t see the first half, but all I have seen since I started watching is Wake turn the ball over. We canā€™t play D as well as FS? Not sure all the doom and gloom. I know we are struggling ā€“ and Wake will be at home ā€“ but we shouldnā€™t fear them. STOP STEALING MY JOY! Lol.

Parker Freidrichsen is a baller/solid. Remember we were interested in him to the point of almost offering/caught wind of him when he outplayed Reed Sheppard in a head to head HS match up.

That mid major pg for Wake Forest is a baller.

They have no wing defenders or real length. Can easily punish them slashing/driving/attacking in transition.

Their offense is basically Hunter/Mid major guy, go attack iso or off a ball screen and kick to the open shooter. They donā€™t really feed Efton that much down low. We will double anyways out of principle

Hereā€™s the thing though; Wake is playing with poise. Thatā€™s the word I have been shouting at the tv the last few games for us. We get down and unravelā€¦no poise. Wake stopped turning the ball over and battled back to take the leadā€¦poise. Very aggravating, but legitimately a problem with youth. We need to find it fast.

Who do we put on Hildreth? He looks like a load who can score in multiple ways.

Not flipping it off until it goes final. No FSU lead is safe. If you watched their VT game you know.

Im hoping this week we come to the conclusion our best lineup is Reece McKneely Dunn Groves Buchanan.

And we can put Dunn on Hildreth

As soon as you said Wake shows poise they went from taking the lead to down 10 in a flash. Itā€™s really hard to win on the road and that seems especially so this year

Agree. But Wake kept coming back and had no quit in them. They got down 11 or so and ā€“ instead of folding and losing by 20 ā€“ they battled backā€¦multiple times. We havenā€™t shown that poise on the road and it has to change fast.

Remind me again why any opponent needs these against the current version of the Hoos?

Oh man the Duke at Pitt score. Capel is cooked

Kinda wild the game was over 10 minutes ago and TJ Power still no run. Has to be because they know hes gone

Good.

We need them better than terrible. If theyā€™re actually decent, even better.

Theyā€™re 155 in the net rn. Jumped 18 spots last night. If they can get within 135 itā€™s only a Q2 loss.
