North Carolina over Duke 77-71 tonight and let’s see who gets the correct score….Any other predictions out there this afternoon??? We are looking at about 5 hours till game time….Still plenty of time to talk about this one….
So many players that have come through Greensboro or that have ties to Greensboro in this game and it seems like we have seen all of these kids on a court in Greensboro at one time or another…..
P.J. Hairston(UNC) played at Dudley….
P.J. Hairston played against Reggie Bullock(UNC) in high school when PJ was at Dudley and Bullock played for Kinston…
David Dupont(UNC) played for Greensboro’s Grimsley High School and used to be a regular reader of this web site/blog……
James Michael McAdoo(UNC) played for Norfolk Christian in a game on MLK Day at the Greensboro Coliseum…..
Miles Plumlee(Duke) played for The Christ School against the Greensboro Day School at two times over on Lawndale Drive…..Played at Greensboro Coliseum MLK Day…
Mason Plumlee(Duke) played against Greensboro Day School…..(Christ School)…..Played at Greensboro Coliseum on MLK Day…
Marshall Plumlee(Duke) played against Greensboro Day School(Christ School)…Played at Greensboro Coliseum on MLK Day…
Seth Curry(Duke) played against Greensboro Day School on Lawndale Drive when the Bengals beat Curry’s Charlotte Christian team for the NCISAA State 3-A Title….Played at Greensboro Coliseum on MLK Day….
Ryan Kelly(Duke) played against Greensboro Day and Northern Guilford when his Ravenscroft Ravens faced GDS and NG…..Kelly struck for 57 points vs. Northern on MLK Day in a game in the Greensboro Coliseum….
Quinn Cook(Duke) played for Oak Hill on MLK Day in the Greensboro Coliseum…..
Not a rabid fan of either but like Coach K a little more than Roy.
65-59 Devils because everyone else will pick the Heels.
Duke 75 UNC 72 in OT
Tar Heels by 10 at 84-74 and we will be up on Franklin Street after the game.
UNC 74
Duke 66
Vegas Mike
North Carolina 78
Duke 70
Perry from Southpark
UNC by 3-4 and I’ll say 63-60. Heels have a much more strength inside with Zeller and Henson. That will be the difference the Tar Heels inside game. The Tar Heels have never lost to Duke on a Tuesday night.
Duke by 8 at 75-67.
Rivers and Curry will be too much for N. Carolina.
I bet you can hear crickets on Franklin Street right now. Good ole Vegas Mike…wrong again.
Suck it Holes!
Sweet.

Not a State Fan
Had Duke +14 bud, won $200, enough said!!
Vegas Mike
Vegas Mike says he had Duke +14. Who did you get 14 points from, your 12-year-old brother? That was not the line in Vegas, K-Vegas or anywhere else.
What a barn burner….they knew they were going to go to austin…don’t understand why they didnt double team but duke went on a 13-2 run with 2 mins left….and carolina didn’t attempt a basket…..zeller missing field goals at the end hurt but he had a pretty solid game otherwise…can’t wait for the re-match at cameron
Its called a teaser you moron.
Bovada.lv
Duke +14
over 148
Bet 240, win 200
do some research before you show your ignorance!
Vegas Mike
What I predict and what i bet on are not always the same.
Vegas Mike
Yeah, “Vegas”, that’s what I thought. Make up your own “Vegas” lines and exotic wagers to make yourself look like less of a fool when your prediction wasn’t even close.
You’re the one who’s ignorant if you think anyone believes you’re anything more than some clown who has to brag on a message board to make yourself feel just a little bit less impotent for one night.
Not bragging, just defending myself .” Make up your own “Vegas” lines and exotic wagers to make yourself look like less of a fool when your prediction wasn’t even close” lol, quit hating and dont worry about what i do. The only idiot here is you budd, i won my bet, loss my prediction, two different things that pocketed me $$$$… only clown i see here is you bud. “exotic wagers” lol, once again they are called teasers, quit typing on here and look it up!
Vegas MIke
It is ok to admit you are wrong Mike. It is called being a grown up.
When you get out of middle school you will see that lots of big folks are wrong too and if they are mature they don’t make up BIG stories they just admit they are wrong and move on. They find that making up lies to try to cover things up tends to make the problem worse.
It is grown up to admit when you are wrong. I said Duke would win by 6 and instead they only won by one. My mistake. See how easy that is?
;-p
PJ look like a deer in headlights. Struggling is an uderstatement. He is no help to the team right now. I thought he would step up when Dex went down but he playing like he don’t belong in ACC. what has Roy done with his confidence and shooting stroke?
Yes and I too was wrong since I had Duke winning by 3 and also wrong in that they did not need OT to do it.
Now let’s all take a deep cleansing breath and let UNC suffer alone in their defeat this morning.
No joy in HOLEVILLE today!
What a game last night! This has to rank already as one of the “Instant Classics’….You bet/think that Rivers will go pro after this year and we all know that Barnes is gone….That tip-in by Zeller gave Duke two and then the shot by Rivers, well, the fans on all sides will be talking about that shot for weeks to come….Great game and the re-match in Durham ought to be just as intense….I missed out on pick, and I was watching the clock in the second half and I could just tell that the numbers that I put up there would not hold up….The winner was in doubt until the very end, although both teams grabbed nice leads during the course of the contest…..The scoring was rolling right up there until the end….Again, a great game for the fans, the players and the coaches and the next meeting is already taking shape…On another note, that was a rough night for PJ….They had him on the diagram where he ran around the screen, he missed most if not all of his shots and he got hit with the foul on the three-point shot by Duke…Did get a few good rebounds, but all in all, not a good night at all for him…..McAdoo, on the other hand, had a decent game for UNC…..
For Duke, I would say #1 Rivers, #2 Curry, #3 Kelly and then #4 and #5 the Plumlees in order of importance last night and then Thornton coming in there with his late three….Duke has an edge after last night’s victory in Chapel Hill and now we get to see how long they can make it hold up….
