(Sorry for spacing out and forgetting that both the basketball teams have games today, and therefore not starting this thread until now. Best wishes to the women's team as they face off now (They're up by 17 at the half) against a league foe Utes.)

The UNC Bears (2-0. 0-0 after their 1st three games were cancelled) will (hopefully) be in Boulder tonight to face off against CU (2-1, 0-0) with a 7:00 PM MT tipoff.

Go Buffs!!!

Game Notes - https://cubuffs.com/documents/2020/12/13/cunotes_northern_colorado.pdf
 
Daylen with 15, 3 and 3 in 2 games so far with UNC. Happy to see him doing so well. I figured he would thrive there. UNC is a low key very good team with a very great junior class. They won 22 games last year and lost Linder to WYO which I feel like was a great hire. Think this is the second best team we've played this year.
 
There’s going to be a lot of sloppy disjointed basketball this year. Makes it all the more important to have a stud in Kin captaining the ship. But I really like all the energy all the new guys are bringing, even if there’s some miscues that come from them.

They might be a bit better than K-State, but K-State matched up better against us. UNC has no one who doesn't get dwarfed by Battey or Walton.
 
Is it just me, or is Barthelemy's shooting motion a bit, shall we say, strange?
 
At what point does Tad move Horne or Walker into the starting lineup in place of Schwartz?
 
Late to the info.. why is Kountz not sitting out the transfer rules? "exhibition?

Last full offensive possession of the half started with 44 seconds on the clock, near turnover, then bad shot late in the shot clock.

That needs to be a 2 for 1 instead.
 
He is who he is. If he takes up some space inside on D, gets us 6 pts 4 rebs and 2 blocks a night he's done his job. You know who's more of a liability on this team right now? Schwartz. You want to sit someone, sit him.
Sit em both because I agree on Schwartz. There is too much talent sitting to let either be in the starting 5
 
That sloppy 3-ish minutes of play with the stupid crowd noise might be the most unpleasant basketball I've watched since seeing George Karl's Nuggets trying to inbound the ball late in tight playoff games.
