Dear God. Another one??? If Duke had lost this game, I would have genuinely felt bad for Proctor. Fact is, HE had the opportunity as a veteran leader to put his team in a great position to win and he failed. I wouldn't want him to die over it, Christ. But what the hell is wrong with harmlessly expressing disappointment in a player that should be relied on, missing a very important FT?
I will not speak for you or anyone else on this board BrotherWhat side am I on?
Shockingly we agree here. No one called him a rat bastard for missing it. We all love the kid and wanted him to ice that game. He didn't, we still won. Let's all relax.
⬆️ I’m the one talking and you’re the quiet one right bleed? Lol
During the game they showed the records of the Cheats and Arkansas and their reasoning to get in the tourney. I don't think I would've ever said this but I'm rooting for Cal. It shouldn't even be close honestly. They had 5 quad 1 wins
Hey, guys, we beat the cheats 3 times this year. Can we all agree how awesome that is?
It is awesome. And as I posted on my top 10, we look very beatable without Cooper. Thankfully we have our one seed and Cooper does not look seriously hurt.
Jon said Coop is out tomorrow too.
And that is okay. We need him healthy for the main tournament.
Dude it says you have 82 post and joined in Jan 2023.. maybe you had a different handle and I missed it? Idk. But no I’m not going to have your back when I don’t see how anyone was hating on proctor or any other players for that matter. You jumped on a bunch of posters so I called it out
Why is everyone arguing? Duke just beat unc. Let’s talk about the lane violation. Did pat do something or not do something to coerce that? Pat looked like someone who just performed the hidden ball trick after that play. It’s almost like he and Evans knew something no one else did and were not surprised.
Gary’s post is up and it’s another must read. Refs really screwed them, Duke is maybe better without Coop, and they can still beat anyone in the country.
Mental illness continues to be a growing concern in this country.

Living in a world of IF is a terrible existence. Mental illness indeed.
I used to think it was wrong to criticize these college players. I don’t feel that way anymore now that they get paid a lot of money. Proctor did choke in the moment. A junior that has been there before has to make his FT’s in nut cuttin time. I told my wife Kon is clutch and he was.
"Someone check on me!!!" I still think I am only at three beats a minute. As @timo0402 said, "JFW." These Devils somehow found a way!!
OFC
The refs did screw them. They let them claw their way back into the game with a barrage of fouls at the end of the game and give them false hope. One of which, if not called, would have put the team in the lead with 4 seconds to go with a RJ tip in 😂 Let’s not forget UNC had 2 more points than they should have had anyway becuase of the first half botched goaltending call that was clearly a block that wasn’t reviewed as it should have been.
what stood out to me is Ngongba! I like what I saw from him. I actually like him a little more than Mal.
The officiating and style of play completely changed most of that second half. Was very strange and felt like they wanted to make the game interesting. Glad Duke won in the end but wish they had played through those changes better
Some posters’ instincts to defend perceived attacks against players is not necessarily a bad thing, but at times it crosses the line into scolding and virtue signaling.
These heat of the moment reactions are what makes a game day thread fun. Re: the $ it does change the equation when these players are making more in a year than most Americans make in five or ten yrs. No question about it
Lol alright man. Go read the losts I quoted and responded to. This board has turned into THR with the negative BS.
Don't let the doorknob poke you in the ass on the way out. The biggest negative Nancy ITT is you.
Even funnier when you hear it from Kon. Love his confidence, saying he already got his miss out the way and he knew he was gonna hit both.
Whew. I don’t think any game in history fit the moniker, “tale of 2 halves” better than that one!
We really should have won with tour the heart attack.
But let’s stop complaining about each other. We all have differing opinions. And in the heat of a tense game against our “arch nemesis” as my 6 year old grand daughter describes them, of course fans will lament a player missing a crucial FT. Doesn’t mean they hate the player. And especially if one has had a beer or two.
Our shooting has to come round before the tourney. I hope John puts some emphasis on shooting 3s. And FTs. We shot in the 20 % range from 3 the last two games. Can’t win that way.
But still proud of the team playing hard, gutting it out, and flashing their talent without the best player in the nation and without one of the best defenders in the nation.

His dad’s name is Kon. Don’t know where they came up with that one, but they really like the letter K in this family
You could correct me if you’ve been around that long what was the handle
