***DUKE VS NORTH CAROLINA ACC TOURNEY SEMI-FINAL OFFICIAL GAMEDAY THREAD***

We came back and showed heart with 2 guys hobbled. We can still have a good tournament. Sucks losing to them but there is still hope.
I am incredibly disappointed, but, it is what it is. We lost in the semis in 2015, this team lost in them last year. We still have something much bigger to play for. I'm going to try and get past this, but this one hurts. Worse than @ State or UNC, this one hurts.
Our players think they have to do it by their self. Had a chance at the end but bad decisions by Grayson. At least they fought back.
Good come back. Grayson did not look good the last two possessions. The bounces did not go Dukes way at all and they were in it
Stupid game no adjustments at all. This is on everybody embarrassing. Play like that we have two more games max
Yeah, pretty disappointing...I'm not sure if whatever was intended was transparently broken, but that was tough to stomach...just no opportunity to move the defense even a step.
We were lucky to even be in that situation but it would have been nice to have that and the charge back...on to the tourney...
Guys, this wasn't just any game, it's a game against our hated rival. It's just different. We still have a great chance to do some damage in the NCAA's. I'm proud of our guys. We came back and gave ourselves a chance. We're good.

Disappointed in the effort for the majority of the game and that turnovers are still such a problem. The loss is probably for the better. Carter and Duval don’t need to play tomorrow.
Once again we get on here and debate whether this team has turned a corner and tonight tells you that they haven't. They did make a comeback, but turnovers and bad decisions will get them knocked out in the NCAA. Book it!
The trend of Grayson’s late game decisions is my biggest concern
Congrats to the tar heels. They were better tonight because unc did the things they do when they win. Transition offense, raining 3's and getting a ton of offensive rebounds and second chance points. Loved the way we did not quit. This may cost us a #1 seed. Go Wahoo's. OFC
Well let’s get rested and ready for the Tourney!
Got beat 2/3 times by a team with pretty good experienced players. I’d rather have guys that stay more than one year.
The fight the team showed was good at the end. I just never expected Grayson to be the one to sink us with a chance to win.
Some serious a$$hole posters in here. Great effort to end after 35 minutes of lackluster play.
I still think Duke gets a 1 seed after Xaviers loss. Mark it down.
Not too worried, the boys will be ready next week.

We have to get healthier. Wendell is obviously hurting, he had no burst all game. If we go into the tourney healthy, we still have as good of a shot as anyone to cut the nets.
This Duke team is not the 2015 team. Really wished posters would stop comparing the two.
It’s either Bagley is consistent or Grayson the two were only consistent down the stretch against a tired ND team with an out of shape Colson.

Our mods are going to have a long night. My thoughts are with them. I hope the trolls are quickly banned so we don't have to see them. OFC
Have a good night fellas. Looking forward to Sunday and seeing where we are going! Disappointed but it is what it is!
Good fight at the end. We need that for 40 mins. Definitely a poor game for our guys in a lot of areas. Let's get ready for selection sunday.....no point in letting this great board turn into rupp rafters even if for only a night. We are better than that.
