This clown makes me sick. It’s unreal I can’t watch sports without someone constantly hating on the team I love. Man it’s unbearable. Okay, so you might not like Grayson, but there are other guys on that team that deserved to go to the final four along with Grayson. It’s amazing that a**holes are allowed to sit on tv and just spew hatred toward an individual.

Crazy career for sure, man, the legend he almost became tonight, that shot would have been amazing. So close.

That shot will haunt me for a long damn time. Did everything BUT drop in.

Honestly I am surprised the shot even touched the inside cylinder. Allen's drive was not that high quality on this possession, it was a feeling of

"Damn this is really the best shot we are getting? (Clink clink) oh that was close"

It reminded me of the game winner against UVa a couole of years ago.

Had a text convo with a guy today. He likes Duke but he also likes UNC, KU, the list goes on. I normally don’t defend players like I’ve defended Grayson but I’ll fight for him against my other anti-Duke friends because I love that kid. I love what’s he done for the program but more importantly what he’s done off the court. Amazing kid. I can’t believe it’s over for him. My son is even more devastated. Glad we had him for 4 years!!!

I don't want this to come across as rude or anything, but I'm kind of glad that Grayson has finished his career.
I absolutely loved that kids heart, hustle, and love for Duke, but it was so much drama that came with him.
For some reason, I pulled for him as if he was my son, so if he had a game where he went 2-9 in even a win, I would be bothered. There were so many highs and lows watching him, with the final low his shot yesterday teasing all of us. Some of the joy was gone due to my own weird liking for a kid I've never met, or probably ever will meet.
I'm looking forward to just watching my team play from here on in with no feeling of attachment at all.
I think this may be a good thing for Duke, a fresh start with no distractions, like no booing from the other team when he's doing something as basic as dribbling the ball upcourt. It's been a very weird last 4 years, and I'm sure it's taken it's toll on Coach K as well.

Mac, I pulled for Grayson in a similar fashion. I wanted him to hit that winning shot, then get hot from 3 in the FF and get MOP to go with his 2nd title. Wouldn't bother me half as much if anyone else missed that last shot.

The basketball Gods were fair with Grayson. There are greater Dukies that didn't feature on multiple Title teams. Ultimately Grayson was not good enough to do it or more precisely his game didn't evolve/improve enough

I am satisfied with Grayson's Duke career. 2,000 career points is his legacy
