Cry 'Havoc,' and Let Slip the Heels of Hoops
or:
Carolina vs. d00k in the 2011 ACC Tournament Final


After getting down big to Miami yesterday, the Heels came back to tie in the final seconds, and won in overtime. They've been down big and come back many times this year, and in both tournament games so far. (At Cameron, they went up big and let it slip away, though...)

d00k will be ready for this game, and they're unlikely to let the boys back up if they let themselves get down. Carolina is the more athletic and exciting team, d00k the more mature and polished one. We'll need McDonald and Barnes to hit threes, and we'll need to control the turnovers. Oh, and somebody is going to have to keep Nolan Smith and Seth Curry from putting up 60 combined points this time...  We own the paint, and there's not much they can do about that; the Plumli can't hang with Zeller and Henson; but they've got the superior backcourt. Anything could happen in this game, but, if I had to bet money, I'd put it on Carolina.

Go Tar Heels

and, as always,

Go to Hell d00k.
