I use to twist my ankle A LOT. Sometimes you get lucky and they roll over pretty far, and it just scares you, more then it hurts. Hopefully, that's the case. He had a nice jumper. It needs to stay loose!

Gotta get the offense worming again. Tatum or Allen to the rim.

Try and step on Clemson's throats here to end the half. How nice would an easy win be for once?

Overall good half. A little slow offensively but D was good and we played team ball

Yuck! Glad to have a cushion but would like to see a few more easy baskets! Don't wanna be dependent on making 12-15 threes a game.

I know this is silly, but I wish they didn't have walking dead ads every damn break. Watching with my five year old boy, and there are a few images there that I don't want him seeing.

A very strange half for both teams, I am worried that we are forgetting about a game plan and just shooting 3's? Or is that our game plan?

Up 11 at half. I'll take it. The defense was pretty good and the intensity was a C+/B-. That's actually pretty good considering 36 hours ago we were playing UNC.

The only concern is that we became a little too three reliant, but we made them again.

Sluggish half seemed like our offense was GA chucking 3's. We need to see some movement on the offensive side of the ball. Play inside out or something

Agree. Feels a little more like a Duke team during the stretches of good defense and rebounding.

Harry looks like a project at this point. He has zero explosion. I hope whomever takes him next year is patient

I may be different than most, but I don't mind us chucking up 3's if they are open looks. Few have been contested. We recruit shooters so that they can shoot when open. If they were constantly heaving up contested 3's, then I would have a problem.

If we can get reliable interior scoring, great, but in the meantime, let the shooters shoot when open.

It has to be hard to play at a high level after Thur game but they need to dig deep here. Clemson isn't going to keep missing these shots

I don't mind the threes, but I prefer the ball to go thru the post on occasion. That said nobody in the post is doing a very good job of getting position and showing today.

I'd like to be up 20, but I'm pretty satisfied so far. It wasn't long ago that if we had only scored 29 points at half we'd be down 11 instead of up by 11.

The Sportcenter commercials actually make me want to watch it less.

And I will repeat what I said in another thread on here

We should have our asses kicked for losing to the one man team known as NC State
