do some research before you comment Pal!Roy has this thing called a system...and clearly 2 ships in 5 years proves it works!oh, and i think things have changed a little bit since the start of the season considering 9 of the last 10!you better hope we dont win the whole thing this year because the addition of P.J Hairston and James Macadoo means trouble for everyone!i cant wait to play on the 9th!
@ImSoPeeved Failure of this recruiting class?! Failure? Youre an idiot. Through four games Kendall Marshall is averaging 5 points 4.5 assists and 1.3 steals in only 15 mpg, and shooting 70%! Reggie is averaging 10 points in 15 mpg and is shooting over 50% !!!!
@danpon1 How many all americans does Roy have? And what's his record now? What about last year? Unc went from number 8 to 25 in one week. They only beat uncashville by 11 at home today. Harrison Barnes was the first freshman preseason all american and barely averages more than Reggie with twice the minutes. Yes, this recruiting class, specifically Barnes, is failing thus far. How many top recruits will want to go to a school that's NIT bound despite elite talent?
@ipockcr Right. I guess that's why the Wear twins transferred, Ed davis hopped to the pros when he wasn't ready, and Drew just transferred as well while unc has had recruiting problems this year by losing Zeller's little brother and Austin River to Duke. Barnes is just finally starting to realize what potential he has. Marshall is the only one that has met or exceeded the expectations tha he had. And don't try to say the expectations were too high, you unc fans made the expectations!
@ImSoPeeved so what recruiting class are you even talking about? From the vid it seems that "this" recruiting class refers to Barnes/Marshall/Bullock. You are trying to consolidate across what, 2, 3 classes lol.
Clearly though, you don't know much about any of it. Rivers was never going anywhere but dook (once he decomitted from FLA). Regardless, I won't reply to you again. You don't know what you are talking about and your "facts" are way off. Have a nice day
@ipockcr Rivers was set on Duke once he decommitted, but he also considered unc, once Ole' Roy caught wind of it. Roy went to Rivers house as well as Coach K and Bill Self, so don't act like Rivers didn't choose Duke over unc. He may have had his mind set up, but so did Barnes when strung Duke along. But Rivers made the smart decision, unlike Barnes, who would have done much better at Duke. He wouldn't have had to go through his slump in confidence. And my "facts" are dead on.
@ImSoPeeved So UNC fans are the ones who voted him a pre season all american?? He's still averaging the same number Derrick Rose did his freshman season. I'd say he's doing pretty damn well
@jc6410 He's doing much better. But only made the third team all ACC. None of the unc players made first team. But I think it's hilarious how the fair weather unc fans are all coming out of hibernation now. I've seen more tar hole shirts this past week than I have the past 18 months. All because unc won their first game against Duke out of the last 4.
PG's over SF's aye? Tell that to LeBron. Anybody can dunk in free style. It's in the game when it matters. And as for the small front court depth.. I think Knox will do more than pick up the slack.. we'll be alright. Ill get back to you after Feb. 9th.
Hey, I saw that Marshall guy before. He was in this one highlight video a lot. I think he was the guy falling all over the floor while trying to defend this really amazing point guard named Kyrie Irving. Can anyone tell me who he is playing for?
@benu571 Do I really need to reply to this? Barnes: 6'8, Irving 6'1.... Are you really going to draw a comparision there? There is a big difference between breaking someone's ankles in a crossover and dunking on them. Everyone gets dunked on, few get embarrassed like marshall does while trying to guard Kyrie. But I don't expect a tar hole to understand that.
@elementskaterxl Hey man, I'm sorry Kyrie is gonna have to jump off singlers back to get to the rim but thats just the way it is.. And the thing about Barnes is that he can break ankles and then finish with a tomahawk.. just sayin big guy
@benu571 I guess that's why Irving was in the countdown to craziness dunk contest. Hah. Point guards are more important to a championship team than SFs anyway. Although, barnes claims he's a 2 guard. That will never happen with unc's small depth in the front court.
@elementskaterxl Hmm and Kyrie played in 8 games his freshman season. While kendall played all season. Part of being a good player is durability. If a stubbed toe keeps you out you don't have it.
@HolliesWood You are an idiot based on that comment. I love Kendall too, but if you are judging a kid based on the fact that he is sitting out from a very severe toe injury that needed surgery, then you are an idiot.
@danpon1 I'm saying he has durability issues. How is that idiotic? Based off of this season I would much rather have Kendall Marshall. And this season is all I have to go on sine they are both freshman
@HolliesWood You'll see who gets drafted higher and who has a more successful nba career overall. Being that Zeller was injured his first two seasons, does he suck for getting injured? That's such a logical fallacy it's ridiculous. But that's what unc fans have come to. Kyrie is the best player on Duke's team, and without him they're still top 5. Let's see unc continue without Zeller and Marshall combined. That's basically what it would be like.
@ImSoPeeved So losing one PG is equivalent to losing a Center and a PG? You're an idiot lol. And If all I had to go on was Zellers freshman year I'd say he was a disappointment. But he's played well since then. Kyrie hasn't had time to do that yet.
@HolliesWood Kyrie is three times the point guard marshall is. YES, he is equivalent to losing a center and a pg for unc. Look at Duke's stats before and after kyrie. With kyrie, everyone could focus on scoring. Without him, Singler had to do more ball handling, Nolan had to worry about getting everyone involved, and our offensive speed was killed. In order for unc to experience the same effect, they would have to lose more than just marshall. Kyrie lead the team in points AND assists.
@ImSoPeeved lol great argument. You guys played a 16, 8, and lost to a 5. Worse than our 15 and 7, however better than the 11. Except you lost to the 5 that you did play. hahahahah good try at a comeback though.
@ImSoPeeved Great logic. We play lower seeds that beat higher seeds. Somehow you think the teams that are winning are less challenging than teams that lose. . Yes we play a 4. You guys lost to a 5 as a 1 Seed. As a matter of fact you got dominated by a 5 seed. Oh well you're an idiot. Hope you have a great spring, summer, and fall waiting for a rebuild year! I will be watching UNC play in the Elite 8 tomorrow. Such a garbage recruiting class yet they went further than Dukes seniors. hahaha
@HolliesWood Annnd you lose. Wasn't the unc fans that said Duke's championship last year was "gift wrapped"? So yes, by that logic they are lesser teams. I guarantee syracuse would have beat unc. So, now you can have a great spring, summer and fall. Have you seen Duke's recruiting class coming in? I won't use the term reload like all the foolish unc fans did two seasons ago (fail), but we are in no touble. Kyrie may or may not leave. But the back court is loaded.
@ImSoPeeved lol yes we lose. All be it a round after Duke got dominated by Arizona. At least we were competitive haha. And I never said that the National Championship was "gift wrapped". They won fair and square and I never tried to take that away from them. You play who you play and it's foolish to act as if you have any control over it. hmm you think we didn't reload? We wen't from NIT last year to Elite 8 this year. I'd call that a reload. Hairston is better than rivers just for the record
@HolliesWood I was talking about how unc fans said last year was their reloading year. As in larry drew, the worn twins, freshman henson, mcdonald, and the rest of them were reloading. And you cannot compare barnes to rivers when he hasnt played a college game yet. They might play the same position occasionally, but they are far from making a comparrison.
@ImSoPeeved I never said that though lol. I knew we weren't gonna be a great team last year. We were way worse than I expected but still. I was comparing PJ Hairston and Austin Rivers. Both of them are still in highschool. And I honestly believe they will end up being around the same quality player
@HolliesWood Kyrie is back, Duke are ACC champs yet again, Duke is a number 1 seed, and Kyrie is about to make you eat your words today at 3:10. Reggie is out with an injury as well. I guess he sucks too, by your reasoning, and will watch the tournament from a bench.
haha just came back to this. I forgot what a tool ImSoPeeved was, not to mention clueless. LMAO
