I mean it is unfortunate for the city. Even though I’m a Carolina guy… Duke is one of if not the most beautiful campus in the country and it’s without a doubt the best hospital in the country. The downtown area seems relatively hip and safe but it does seem that they’ve pushed a lot of crime out but it’s on the outskirts of Durham which unfortunately for Durham… is still part of Durham.

Durham wants to be hip like Charlotte with all it’s brewieres, NODA, Camp North End, Plaza Midwood, etc… but in reality it’s got a decent downtown with a nice university and few nice neighborhoods… the rest of the city is constantly full of crime and gunshots.

The issue here is that the nice parts of Durham aren’t the only parts of Durham. How much has Durham changed since 2019? Because only three years ago it was still the most unsafe city in NC outside of High Point. Not to mention, if Durham is so nice then why are they talking about adding shot spotter again… the town may have added nice tenants and buildings, essentially putting lipstick on a pig… but it’s still crime infested. I’d rather walk into a Target and know I’m not going to get shot at then walk into a bar and not walk out later.

Current Standings 7th. Cavaliers (43-35) - 4GR 8th. Hawks (41-37) - 4 GR 9th. Hornets (40-38) - 4 GR 10th. Nets (40-38) - 4 GR The Cavs play the 76ers tonight.

If I had to guess, Bender will be invited to the USMNT camp in January. I also expect Alcivar to eventually be a regular with Ecuador and Makoun is obviously a member of the Venezuelan national team. Kahlina might also be able to get a look from Croatia but he’s a bit older so it’s unlikely.

I like that we have Black who should be able to limit Agbaji. Coach Davis might be best served at getting Puff and Styles in right before the commercial breaks to get Manek a break.

Kansas is going to be an interesting matchup but I do think the Heels matchup well with Kansas. Black on Agbaji Love on Braun Davis on Harris Manek on Wilson Bacot on McCormack If Manek outplays Wilson then I think Carolina comes away with this one.

I’m not sure how much Carolina will have left on Monday. This was an emotional game for both Carolina and Duke but if anyone can get them ready to play then it’s Coach Davis. Regardless, as others have pointed out, it will be a stress free game. I’ll be able to sit back and watch and wonder how the hell we got here.

Amazing… GDTBATH

Well… no matter what go for the win with Bacot out. Can’t play for OT.

Butthole clenching time.

Bacot hasn’t been big on the offensive end but he’s allowed Carolina to hang tough and is single handily responsible for Duke having no post presence.

So Justin McKoy but a dick?

Carolina took a right hook early and got back up. The shots are starting to fall now.

As a Carolina fan I’m happy with where we are. It felt like Duke controlled the last 15 or so minutes of that half and yet they are only up by three. If Manek and Love get going then Carolina will be fine.

That was a rough one tonight but the Union are the class of the MLS so it makes sense.

Well… Bacot has nearly fouled out Theo John.

Bacot out-hustling the entire Duke roster.

Carolina is in a good place right now, only shooting 30% and yet they are only down 3. The shots should fall at some point so keep it close until they do.

That was the worst defending I’ve seen from Lindsey all year, unfortunately it came at a bad time.

Phew… that was some poo defending, now Charlotte has to chase early and I’m not sure you can do that in a 5-4-1.

Yeah this is probably about what ol’ back pain thinks about himself. If Carolina wins this then I can’t wait until next years tour.

Go Heels.

Can’t quite tell what formation we are rolling with tonight, possibly a 5-4-1 diamond with Bender playing as a false 9, obliviously a lot of respect for the Union’s lethal attack. If I had to guess… GK - Kahlina LB - Mora LCB - Fuchs CB - Corujo RCB - Walkes RB - Lindsey LM - Bronico CDM - Alcivar CAM - Bender RM - Ruiz ST - Swiderski

That’s the Hornets for you.
