ACC semis vs Heels. Score tied 70-70 and following sequence occured: Frank drives left side for layup, next possession Grayson sets up Luke for three on wing. Then Giles blocks ACC POY shot and races up court for an alley oop. Barclays, my kids and our bench goes bananas. What a great sequence of basketball. Favorite memory of this season hands down.

Now that we have hindsight, Duke winning the ACC Tournament is such a big deal. It was such a frustrating and tumultuous season, with obstacles constant and of every kind. They did not do well in the NCAA Tournament, so it is great to be able to look back at the season and see there still was a huge accomplishment that they will always have.

Any time Grayson Allen smiled on the court since there were so few times it happened, unfortunately.

Luke's shot at Wake....turned season around and won two nites later at South Bend!

Huge moment for the team. Luke misses and we might be talking about a much worse season.

Mine is probably the ACCT. Obviously a run in the NCAAT would have been much more gratifying, but it wasn't meant to be.

I also love seniors and upperclassmen....Amile and Matt just left everything on the court. I don't have much to say about Amile that hasn't already been said, and Matt's one of those guys who is just under-appreciated. He had a tough senior campaign shooting the ball, but the defense he played on some of the best offensive players in the ACC can't be forgotten.

Grayson. Still love the kid and would be thrilled to have him as a senior. If you cut him open I swear his blood would be blue.

Lastly, beating UNC two out of three times. It will mean a lot more if they lose this weekend. Hopefully that happens.
