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

[FearTheBeard_rivals208808]

Heck no we’re still a 1

If Zion comes back and we don’t lose a game with him. We’re a 1 seed. If we win by 20+ then we’re possibly the overall #1 if Gonzaga loses.

 

[Duke Blu]

Just find a way to play in DC

 

[OldasdirtDevil]

I mean, yeah, there’s concerns...even with Zion back and totally healthy. But I think a lot of people are just really overreacting. Not surprising, either...after all, we just lost to UNC, again.

What people seem to forget is how efficient Zion was himself, and for this team. We’re talking transcendent. Like, the most efficient player (by the numbers) in the history of college basketball. He’s not just a scorer or defender....he’s the best at pretty much everything. Do we win it all with him? Maybe not.....but you’re an idiot if you think someone has a better chance.

We’re not a good shooting team. I kind of feared that coming into the season, but I didn’t think we’d be this bad. I expected more consistency from Cam, and I pictured Jack and AOC being bigger factors. But we’re a better shooting team with a healthy Zion.

Time to regroup. I refuse to give up on these kids....Zion or no Zion.

Absolutely right on, DJ.
A player like Zion is totally irreplaceable.

Heck no we’re still a 1

If we win with ACCT (with Zion) we’re going to be a one seed. Hell, it would add three more Quad 1 wins to our resume.

 

[WI#1Dukie22]

The video of Zion walking off the floor tonight is literally one of the most encouraging things I’ve seen in a looonnnngggg time.

LETS FING GO

LETS FING GI

 

[OldasdirtDevil]

OAD, I would have been glad to have given your left testicle too for the win. Always have felt you were a warrior. Lol

You're all heart, Mac! Hell, speaking of heart, how 'bout we just throw in Hart's as well. That may appease the testicle gods.

OFC

 

[sheyduke]

Shey says Barret, with one t.

Hey I corrected it so cal, lol

 

[dukiejay]

I don’t need my left testicle anymore. I’m no longer a stud and have been retired out to pasture. So take it, if you want it.

*I always joke (and my wife hates it) that if she gets pregnant, either 1) my doctor has a lot of explaining to do, or 2) she does.

 

[sheyduke]

Duke is a one seed I don’t see that changing
GTHC

 

[BOOGIEMAN1914]

Boys played tough!...70-75 sequences were tough, but hey.........on to the ACCt!!

 

[pisgah101]

How bad does it suck being UNC and the ESPN headline doesn’t even show you winning but has a Zion update LOL

 

[Shatterthesky22]

I would be more than willing to sacrifice everyone’s left testicle for #6.

I am not included in “everyone”

I already have a kid so I'll give both if need be.

I guess you're getting tired of peeing on them huh lmao/ j/k.

That's it then, the testicle gods have the ultimate...a mod cod. A championship is now guaranteed.
DJ's ...uh...jersey, will hang in the rafters at Cameron!

OFC

 

[retiredsoldier]

I don't know about you guys, but I'm freaking fired up. I got a feeling these boys are about to bust some heads open all the way to the white meat inside.

 

[skysdad]

Just to humor the board. The heels cut down the nets after the game. OFC

Actually, Pisgah, that makes me feel a little warm all over. Anything that pisses them off works for me

OFC.

They won their championship. Our quest for the real thing begins next week.

[Mac9192]

Instead of the Locks for Love drive they do, why don’t we do a testicle for 6 drive. I nominate all OFC’s.
Ipsy will do the clipping.

Wait a damn minute, I'll give 'em up, but I want a qualified surgeon and a good anesthesiologist!

[VaBlueDevil33]

I may not know exactly what would've happened, but I can tell you UNCheat doesn't shoot 36-55 from two in the first game with Zion, and we sure as **** wouldn't have taken 40 threes. Also, a we would've won at least one, but most likely two, because healthy Duke is a much, much better team than UNC. Fact.

Nothing is fact in this...you don't KNOW anything that would or wouldn't happen....you THINK things may happen...big difference

He didn't play either game basically...time to move on and hope he is back for the only tournament that matters....in 2 weeks

Where is this video? I must have missed it

[FearTheBeard_rivals208808]

i don’t think I can watch this too many times.

 

[PixelDevil]

I NEED this. I can't stomach not getting a win against THAT team.

 

[retiredsoldier]

i don’t think I can watch this too many times.

I've watched it at least 10 times, but who's counting. I'll start watching all the regular season games I have recorded tomorrow, starting with Ky lol. Getting mentally prepared for the tournament.

 

[WI#1Dukie22]

It’s pretty amazing

 

[retiredsoldier]

The crazy thing about the rematch, they have no idea what Zion brings. You can watch it on film all day, but to see it in person will be a different story.

 

[saGz777]

Not playing next week. He is done. This is smoke and mirrors guys.

Someone’s **** is about to get f###ed up.

Dear UNCheat,

You’re not gonna like Friday. Just pray that’s the last time you see Zion. I hope it’s not!

 

[retiredsoldier]

Duke has the late game Thursday night tipping at 9pm at the earliest.

If he plays will you be done then for all of us?

 

[retiredsoldier]

You give me Mod authority for a few minutes, you wouldn't have to wait until then lol.

Pound sand. How

No, bc if I am wrong I will come crawling back. So I have to believe the narrative to be worthy of you? I am very proud of our guys tonight but i don’t think Zion is coming back. I am no more a factition than any of you. It’s a theory and that is mine. I hope I am wrong. Believe me, I want to be wrong. But should you be deleted/banned if you are wrong?

Dude relax,it was a joke! You may want to like try and say hello or something, instead of just busting in the house and being so sensitive. Usually new poster start out with an introduction to the rest of the board. Now excuse me if I missed yours when you done it.

If you're not up to that, then be quiet when grown folks are talking!

You are right. I apologize and see your point. I am just shaken by all the uncertainty of this.

 

[Shatterthesky22]

He's pissed. He might actually kill Fluke next week. Gulp.

 

[retiredsoldier]

You are right. I apologize and see your point. I am just shaken by all the uncertainty of this.

Trust me, you are not by yourself, but I know for sure Zion will be back Thursday. If not, then I will take a year off from this board from posting. Now that don't count if something crazy happens to him in practice between now and Thursday night.

 

[saGz777]

I like the sounds of this.
