Favorite THR Quotes....

Glad to see he owns some “dress casual” clothes Jeans with an untucked dook polo and Jordan’s. Maybe it’s because I wear a tie M-F, but Roy never lets our guys look like bums on the bench when injured.

Zion is good but hes a ball hog plain & simple … gets away with lots of push offs but what dook player hasn't in 20 years
Most people I talk to say Zion should take more shots but at THR he is a ball hog.
 
DSouthr wants to take one last stab at idiotic post of the year before 2018 is in the books. This one is a borderline hall of Famer in my eyes. From a pure lack of common sense, to taking things too literally, and of course my favorite just making things and quotes up out of thin air, this one has it all. To be clear, you can tell a HOF THR post when it’s so outlandishly stupid that you can’t even argue it, you just have to laugh and enjoy it.

“I swear I think K must have someone, maybe a team of folks that pour over social media looking for buzz words and phrases. UNC has their long standing tradition of the family, what grew organically and has been in place for pretty much our entire lives, K had to have something to counter that, even if it didn't exist so evidentially the key word phrases that worked best was to say they had a "brotherhood" at duke? K notices that Kalipari had coined his "dribble drive" phrase to give a name to his dumbing down their system so now duke has what they want to call "positionless" basketball, a clear rip off of what the GSW have named what they do as.

2 examples of duke coming up for a name for something that does not actually exist. There is actually no such thing as "positionless" basketball, don't believe me, fine, get back to me what Boldin plays PG for duke, let me know when Tre Jones becomes the starting center for duke? There are and pretty mcuh have always been players that play multiple positions, Roy and UNC have done this for as long as I can remember. Because you can play multiple positions does not mean you are "positionless" because when you are in the game you do still play a single position, how many minutes has Zion had this season for duke as a PG, how3 often has McConnell defended centers this season, oh can he please try to be a center when we play, I would LOVE to see McConnell guarding Luke Maye in the paint.”
Not sure where to begin with this stupidity. First he says it's a rip off of GSW offense, then he says it doesn't exist. Then he says what about Player X being in this defined position or Player Y being in this defined position. Think I just figured out his issue with this offense. He doesn't know what the word "Positionless" means. It's the "less" part of the word that gives him the most trouble.

↑ From who other than Gary-7 Play zone and hope they cannot light it up from three. We don't have a soul that can play their three freshmen man to man. Not quite true. KW will ideally be on Barrett, and if Kenny gets a fair shake from the zebras Barrett could have a rough day. Force him to his right and he's out of his comfort zone. Reddish is not that hard to guard provided you stay in his grille, as he tends to stand around when his compadres hog the ball. He will shoot as soon as he feels leather however, so you can't give him any space. I would imagine Cam will get him. Zion is a dadgummed handful, especially as poor as this team is at moving their feet in Help. Granted, if they actually called his travels, he'd average 10 TOs a game, but good luck with that . I tend to agree that Nas would be the strongest matchup (literally and figuratively). Thing is though, we need to keep Nas outta foul trouble, because none of their glory-hounds can guard him if we turn him loose to attack the rim. I REALLY hope we're starting Small by then, because I want to see Bolden have to chase Luke around the perimeter and keep him away from protecting the rim, and I would invert Nas and Luke and let Nas operate in the paint. Bolden has hurt us in the past but if he has to chase Luke that could be negated. The biggest issue could be if Jones plays. We haven't guarded a legit PG worth a damn all season and if he runs free it puts too much pressure on everyone else. The good news about Jones is you can dare him to shoot. If he happens to hit, hey oh well, you hafta take your chances somewhere, but I like those odds. If it's White, you MUST take away the corner-3 and keep him from getting a running start to crash the boards --- and whoever he's guarding needs to go to take it to him because White trying to play defense is a study in comic bufoonery. And like Reddish, O'Connell can't be given an inch of space. He's little threat off the bounce, but he can flat shoot. I also wouldn't mind mixing in some Point Zone, but I'm not expecting it. Found this gem in the Duke/UNC matchup thread. They already bitching about the refs. I wish I wasn't banned.

I use think Gary would post stuff to get attention, and say ridiculous stuff to make friends. After reading that post I'm convinced he just doesn't know about basketball. God if he coached UNC, Duke would win by 100 plus and I'm not even exaggerating at all.

“Got some cryptic info tonight that seemed to translate into he and/or his family ain't exactly feelin' it with Crean so far. As I posted months ago, that factor going wrong for them would be the only thing that could lose a Kessler for UGA.”


Who wants to guess who posted this :D
What the heck does cryptic info even mean?

This isn’t a quote from thr, but a direct quote from a tarhole “friend”.

Him: Did you see the game last night?

Me: what game?

Him: The tarheels

Me: no, I only watch them when they’re playing Duke.

Him: Well just an fyi, if we play duke like we played last night, we’ll beat y’all by 20.

If he likes to wager, tell I'll take Duke and 10 for 500.00

Yeah, I'm not entirely convinced he shouldn't be in a psych ward somewhere, some of the shit he says...man it's insane. Makes for an absolute comedic gold mine however.

Wow that's really damn stupid. I mean where do they come up with this shit? I don't think they watch honestly, no way you can pay attention and still be that naive about the game as a whole.

What did you say lol
 
Gary is far from stupid but he has built such a following over there in la la land making statements that only stupid followers can appreciate and expect. I especially love it when his followers say how they like and thank him for his comments about Cheaters basketball. They actually think he is a former basketball coaches elite guru who keeps fulfilling them with much needed descriptions, analysis and break downs of all things that matter in unc basketball. The truth is what he says is quiet simple if you have the proper audience to preach to.

I decided to venture over to THR because I hadn’t been over there in awhile because I haven’t felt like logging out to go over there until now and while over there I noticed that they already have a thread talking about the fist Duke/UNC game and what it’ll take for them to beat us even though we each still have 5 games to play before we play each other.

That's exactly the way I've always thought he looked like all these years. Do you have a picture of steat or guru gary. I sort of think that guru gary -7's avatar is the what he really looks like. dirt has a picture of a photo shopped unc/UK fans. Beautiful pic and job he did on that but I wonder if both are heel fans and one is steam and the other is the guru? OFC

“Heels will be in Minneapolis. Not sure dook will make it past the first weekend but we’ll see.”

Tarheelmark with a gem
Its more likely they lose to a team like buffalo in the second road than going to the final four. Their defense will not beat 3 good teams to get to a final four

Not as bad as that weirdo Keysersosay claiming that this is the same Duke team that heavily relies upon the 3.

Ummm, do they even bother watching games? Duke is 21-2 and ranked 202nd in 3’s made per game. They are shooting 30% from 3, which is 316th. Meanwhile UNC is ranked 92nd in 3’s made. They are shooting 37%, which is 48th overall.

Both teams have been successful so far this year. But 1 is far more reliant on the 3 ball than the other.
 
Not THR but a UK poster trying his hardest to make the dumbest post of year.

"My love of college basketball is really starting to fade. I get sick of the corrupt NCAA, constant media bias against UK, incompetent/crooked officials, getting shafted in the rankings, getting put on the worst bracket each season, and complaining about it to people who can't fix the issue or others who say I'm just looking at things through blue tinted goggles and I'm a conspiracy theorist.

It makes it worse considering that Duke and K are the antithesis of Kentucky and watching them get a more blatantly obvious unfair advantage. I can't wait for the day K retires. I group him with Wooden in the category of severely overrated and carried by referees, the media, and other advantages that no other coach receives."
