    Lifelong UNC fan and his words are exactly why I felt Carolina would win those games against Duke. The pressure on them to win would either propel them or completely dismantle those kids. Coach K should’ve just announced it at the end of the year instead of putting it all on those guys for the entirety of that year. That wasn’t even a great Carolina team they just rose to the occasion time and time again. 99% of the UNC fans I know all expected to lose that last game at Cameron.

      How many of those 99% played in the game?! The consensus amongst the Players was they were going to return the favor in Durham. I won $2,000 off that game and another $25,000 from the lottery a couple of days later! The winning lottery numbers were UNC’s winning score!

      The pressure didn't dismantle them in the Final Four... It def did in the last Cameron game... But the fact they made it to the final four under that type of pressure is one of the greatest achievements ever in sports IMO. No athletes have had that type of pressure on themselves.

    It’s no one on Duke’s fault, player or coaches. MAYBEEEE Mark Williams missing those free throws down the stretch you can point at, but the game changed significantly in the 2nd half where over a minute stretch Caleb Love hit two contested deep threes and Manek hit one of the craziest 3 pointers I’ve ever seen spinning on one foot while falling out of bounds. UNC was just a team of destiny, insane shots falling for them

    I've been seeing people debating these All-Time Duke lists that don't include Kyrie. And the reason, for me, you can't include Kyrie isn't because he was a One and Done but because it was clear he wasn't as committed. JJ talked about how Coach felt Paolo, Tatum and Zion were the best among those because they felt committed. I can totally see that and understand that. I understand you gotta do what's best for business but there's a reason why I put Kyrie in the same boat as someone like Jalen Johnson. In terms of the one and dones, I'd also put Jabari, Bagley, Carter and the big three of the 2015 team as being the best to do it for Duke.
