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

It's been a rough year all around. We've all been dealing with the pandemic for a year now. Last year's tournament was cancelled, we will miss the tournament and we just got curb stomped by our rivals and swept. Our best recruit left mid season, and the entire college basketball world is gloating now that we are down. Duke basketball is an escape for many of us, and it's turned into a heartbreaking season. I feel for the kids, our fans. It happens to all programs eventually but the fact that it happened this year is rough. Next year should be better. That's all I've got right now.

I think what you just posted sums it up for about all of us. If you think last year's off season was long this one will feel like an eternity. Hopefully the Olympics will go well and The Little League World Series which I look forward to so much will happen. I'm a Yankee fan also and looking forward to some good baseball. If all these events go as scheduled next season will be here before you know it. OFC
 
The ACC tournament is a good opportunity for Duke. The pressure should be off. They should be able to release some frustration against BC. They would then get the chance to avenge two very close losses against Louisville

I don't know about that. People said the pressure was off against UNC and we played with the weight of the world on our shoulders. I think we need to beat BC, if nothing else for the confidence of these kids going into the offseason.
 
The pressure should be off. At least I think so. But I'm not a high school all American. If I were coaching, I would not practice or discuss basketball. Play kickball or some other fun activity.
