Went to UNC vs Duke last night

[mcs333]

I have not seen a worst first half of basketball by both teams ever. The facts, two top twenty teams, score at half was 16-16, neither team made a single basket that was not a layup or foul shot. The second half was not much better. Duke did not score in the first 8 minutes of the third quarter. They were still sitting at 16 points, UNC had double their first half output to lead 32-16. From there Duke out scored UNC 24-8 to tie the game at 40-40. The game went into OT and UNC won 53-46. Duke shot 23% from the floor, they made 4-17 from three, all in second half and OT, they also had 19 turnovers.
UNC made two threes in the second half 2-8 for the game. They turned the ball over 26 times, yes 26 times and still won. Alysa U. for UNC had a triple double, 10 points, 12 rebounds and yes 11 turnovers!

I am a long time UConn fan who went to high school in Storrs in the 60’s. I now live in Chapel Hill and have two daughters who graduated from UNC. So I go to a few games as one of my daughters has UNC season tickets. Also saw UNC/ND last week.

ND was impressive but UNC and Duke are not very good.

In the 2010 championship game, Stanford led UCONN 20-12 at the half. UCONN shot 17% in the first half and 0-4 free throws. Thanks to Maya, UCONN won the second half 41-27 and the game 53-47. UCONN shot 9-22 free throws and 33% overall for the game. Stanford only shot 27% for the game.

Since you have watched UNC in person more than once, why do you think that they often struggle to score?
