I feel like the ultimate slap in the face is going to be GT beating us at home to ruin our perfect record at the Joel.

It’s happening. This feels like the part where we just fall apart generally. We already have Damari who’s a hot mess, who knows whose twitter will follow.

We fucking suck on the road but the statement is still true. Wake is basically down to 5.5 usable players. Cam is a shell of himself post injury. Damari has been putrid and now seems in the doghouse or injured. We’re relying on spot minutes from MMM and Marsh… PFred is the only viable option off the bench

If we finish in top 4 of ACC and get a bye, we still should get in the Dance….provided we win 1st game

If we beat Clemson, our reward after the bye will be playing Clemson (probably) in the ACCT.

I don’t think we’ll beat them twice in a row. I believe we’re 0-4 in that scenario (playing a rematch at the ACCT) since 1999.

If we lose this game, I hate to say it, but I’m putting one foot in the #Forbesout camp. We play full tilt, out of control basketball. It’s exciting and explosive, but unstable. A coach has to step in and make changes to make sure things don’t go off the rails and he refuses to do that. Infuriating.

Higher floor than last 2 coaches, but his ceiling is limited.
 
It's all on me, my responsibility to coach them and get them up in the 2nd half. This has been a recurrent problem. Forbes post game.

Glad he can see and own the problem; unclear if he knows how to fix it.

There was no way the second half would ever have gone any different, you’ve seen this play out almost 10 times exactly the same way the entire season. This is embedded within this team’s DNA. Forbes has had ample time to solve this problem. He is not capable. Seems like a good guy but he has to be gone.

Never made the tournament, and to blow it with this team is inexcusable. He has to be fired. He’s not capable of winning on the road and if you can’t win games on the road you’re useless.

Just listened to Stan interview with Forbes. He says he has tried numerous techniques at halftime to get them motivated and nothing has worked.

I hope Damari didn’t aggravate his injury, but that would at least explain his frustration. On the other hand, if selfishness and self-absorption got him benched, then he really boned Marion into minutes that he isn’t ready for today
