UNC's Kendall Marshall has a broken right wrist

TheMoneyShot · 03-18-12, 07:06 PM

Was it that hack on him early in the game??? From that one white dude?

yisman · 03-18-12, 07:06 PM

They face the winner of Ohio/USF.

The good news for UNC is that neither team presents a huge challenge for them.

I think you're talking about John Henson, who had an injured wrist.

Henson should play in the next game.

This is a new injury to Marshall.

My UNC to win it all bracket is 99% on ESPN, might be dead now.

Without Marshall season over for UNC this sucks. To many injuries for that team to overcome.

disagree on usf

usf has size to bang with zeller and henson and will be a nightmare pressuring the ball on the perimeter without marshall

can see unc having around 20 turnovers in that game and being super tight game

usf has to finish ohio first though

ZetaPsi808 · 03-18-12, 07:10 PM

unc lost their 2 best point guards.

marshall

strickland.

that sucks

That's what I said. I was just explaining why he might've thought I meant Henson (the "white dude" hack").

boy Roy williams looked devastated

USF is giving up about 50 points a game over last 12 and you have no point guard it is going to be very tough to score even if you have a lot of NBA players.

RL75 · 03-18-12, 07:16 PM

I could see them beating USF/Ohio but getting past either Kansas/Purdue/NC State seems unlikely. Even the USF game would be a very tough game to win.

"that one white dude" refers to 98% of creighton's student body...

zoo youk · 03-18-12, 07:45 PM

thats terrible news. they are going to have to do something drastic like switch Barnes to the point

rm18 · 03-18-12, 07:50 PM

Refs are cheating tryint to help Ohio win to make it easier for Carolina BS calls

zoo youk · 03-18-12, 08:06 PM

ohio is actually a bad match up for unc. especiqlly with marshall out it takess away the advamtage unc would have in size with marshall nlt being able to set them up. ohio can run with thwm and lock them down in half court. cooper could go off foe 30 wit no marshall

Puppy · 03-18-12, 08:17 PM

yisman make me an offer?

puppy, what, you want me to buy your UNC future?

I wouldn't pay much because I'm not confident in UNC beating people without Marshall.

yeah ill make a thread about it next week. they should be like -5.5 vs ohio anyways because they will have a few days to practice with a new guard. so maybe afther that win then i can sell it for like $150

yisman · 03-18-12, 08:36 PM

yeah I think they'll be at least -4 vs. ohio, maybe 5

PickWinnerAllDay · 03-18-12, 08:37 PM

UNC will be -6 against Ohio at close.

k13 · 03-18-12, 08:37 PM

you guys really think it's going to be that low?

yisman · 03-18-12, 08:38 PM

predicting the unknown here because we don't know how the linesmakers will value Marshall.

PickWinnerAllDay · 03-18-12, 08:39 PM

UNC will still absolutely destroy Ohio down low so not expecting it to be that low... -6 or -7 .

paranoyd androyd · 03-18-12, 08:40 PM

they'll be fine

yisman · 03-18-12, 08:47 PM

after rethinking it, I agree that what I said originally is low. I'm thinking 5.5-6.5.

k13 · 03-18-12, 08:51 PM

MSU is -5 vs Louisville

Most would think that's rather high.

jjesco425 · 03-18-12, 09:56 PM

line will still be -8.5 as much as i like ohio the size of unc will b 2 much... henson and barnes will shoot over them all game

InTheDrink · 03-18-12, 09:58 PM

even though they'll be one round further their chances of winning the title improve 0% by beating ohio

EaglesPhan36 · 03-18-12, 10:54 PM

Sportsline.com reporting surgery tomorrow w/pin inserted in hopes he can play. My guess, no play against Ohio - Willis Reed against KU.

I agree on the line and the size of UNC is really going to hurt Ohio.....BUT these guys don't get open on there own or create for themselves......Marshall gets them set up every time.....there offense really gets stagnant in the half court without him.
