***DUKE VS NORTH CAROLINA OFFICIAL GAMEDAY THREAD***

Tre was 6-9 from the free throw line tonight and 2 of his biggest free throw attempts actually ended up being 2 of his misses because if he hadn’t missed them then we might not have won (I know that probably sounds weird to say but there’s some truth to it).

I scared my dogs when Tre hit the shot in regulation. Then, my mom, who is who I had to take to the airport, decided to come sit near me on the couch for OT. Needless to say I scared the crap out of her too when Wendell’s put back went in. Apparently, I’m just like my father when he watches KU, but I cuss a lot more.
 
So, I have been a Die Hard Duke Basketball Fan since 1985 & this may be the most unexpected W that I have seen in real time... Down by 10+pts with a few minutes to go? Seeing a 5pt lead evaporate in OT to being down by 3pts & UNC has the ball wt approx 15 seconds left, on the road, at the Dean Dome, & WE get the W? Trey Jones was Outstanding & The Duke Blue Devil's refused to to Lose - Just WOW, Trey Jones was Outstanding! Let's Go Duke!!!

GREAT POST!

OFC
 
Great come back win. I didn't wade through the entire thread of all the Duke sucks posts, but I don't get it. This team is obviously not perfect, great or without flaws. But that's the best I've seen UNC play all year and they were preseason top 10 not completely bereft of talent. The D wasn't particularly good, but guys like Keeling and Pierce were shooting jump shots at like an 80 percent clip. FT shooting kept them in the game and then some big plays by Jones and Moore pulled it out. Biggest negative is really Hurt IMO. Just aren't getting much if anything from him at all.

For some reason, the shock still is just as fresh this morning as it was last night. We watched the game again around midnight, went to bed amazed at what we witnessed around 3:15 am, and I just woke up this morning to jump on here to continue the celebration with my Duke brothers and sisters. What a way to demoralize that arrangement of buildings 8 miles down the road.

Did that really happen or am I dreaming? If I’m dreaming then don’t wake me uo
Man, I'm with you. I know we have come to expect anything with this rivalry, but last night was absolutely crazy. I was content with them fighting back like they did, but to actually win, my goodness. And how about our boys hitting clutch free throws while the cheats were dreading going to the line. Scared to death in their own building lol.
 
That was absolute peak UNC - they haven't sniffed that level of execution at any other point this year. As Roy said in his presser, that was the team he thought he would be coaching. The basketball gods punished them for failing to play at or near this level more often, as they should have.

I agree. They haven't played like that all year. Cole had the best game offensively I have seen this year in the few games I have watched of theirs. Didn't force or let ball get stuck in his hands. He was bad on defense though besides rebounding. The Jones brothers just have that something that can't be taught..........Stones!

Tre was two people last night. He played poorly for most of the game mostly through questionable decision making. At that point Anthony was clearly dominating that matchup...then Tre took the game over and was truly in the zone...we had a chance and he made winning plays to give us the chance both offensively and defensively...he made some bad decisions again that got us down and the game looked lost a second time...then he was amazing again when the game needed a winning play...

When Tre is making good decisions and controlling game flow (His Leadership) we are a pretty good team..when he’s not we are pretty average...both can be true.
