If you haven't listened to the press conferences yet in the ACC champion thread, you need to. Duke's is great as usual, but Hamilton's presser was about as great as it gets when talking about another team as he did with Duke. He has always been so respectful and never made excuses, but more yet gives credit to the other team.

Hamilton is a classy dude and underrated coach.

What an amazing night! Not been home long from the game, and trying to wind down now. Big time performances from Tre and Javin! Awesome 3 days of Duke basketball!

crazyduke, take off the T. The tournament champ is the ACC CHAMPIONS, nothing more...

Yep, 2019 Atlantic Coast Conference Champions and that is # 21, most in ACC History. (3 more than chapel hill, and 11 more than 3rd NC State who once upon a time led all schools with ACC Championships.)

Duke also now has 103 wins in the event. (Chapel hill has 101)

And this surely locked Duke in for a #1 seed if there was any remaining doubt. The quality wins are too good and everyone knows the Blue Devils weren’t playing with all their weapons.

Charlotte did a helluva job hosting this tourney and ACC fans showed up big time. Friday night atmosphere was old school Big East! Tension could be cut with a knife but didn't see one fight. Charlotte is an ACC town & Brooklyn isn't the answer.

Absolutely, they did an incredible job.

All the fans I interacted with were competitive but cordial. Although, during the Duke/UNC game when they were showing former player highlights and they showed the Tyler Hansbrough package, when it was over a guy one section over from me stood up and yelled "That guy is a f****** clown." He got a good laugh, including from me (I'm only human).

We were complaining last week that we were regressing. Well with Zion back we are improving, have another defensive ace in Goldwire, and should be getting Bolden back. Also Javin and Tre stepped up big time.

It’s interesting that as some have regressed (Cam, Jack) others have impressed (JGold). Now we need it all to come together at once, like a symphony.

Cam hasn’t regressed. He’s been the same player all year. Inconsistent offensively and consistently solid defensively. When he’s on, we are tough to beat if Zion and RJ are both in the lineup. Jack, seems to have his role of filling in when we need defense, he’s clearly taken a step back from where he was coming into conference play shooting wise. Jordan provides great minutes when defense is needed. Fingers crossed that Javin of ACC championship game is what we get the entire tournament.

Our bench seems to rotate who plays well. They have all had their moments, but never consistently.
