Miami @ Syracuse 1PM EST ESPNU

[Genghis Cane]

Go Canes!!!!

This place is in tears!

Sooo where the **** was this defensive intensity at for most of the game?

Saved it for the win at the end.

22-9, 14-6, Double bye in ACC Tourney.

It's Great to Be.

Wasn't always pretty but a **** of a season after being predicted to finish 12th and with clear limitations down low. Lets keep it rollin

Again, Jordan Miller is the best all around player on this team. Absolutely a monster today.

I mean.. first he gets the tip in off the missed 3 pointer to make it a 1 point game, then he gets another tip on off the missed FT to give us the lead, then he boxes out and gets the rebound and draws the foul on defense, then he hits 2 FTs, then he defends Boehein and forces the miss to end the game.

He did all of that in the last like 30 seconds.

Thats what I've been saying. If this team could just bottle that up and consistently play like that they could be really dangerous

Great chance at the 3rd spot in the tournment, I do not see Duke losing in Coach K's final regular season game.
If fact I do not see them losing in the tournment, except for maybe the canes.

 

[CBurrr93]

Big time. We in now

I thought the canes blowing an 8 pt lead to VT with 1 40 left was the worst I've ever seen then Cuse goes and blows a 10 pt lead with 2 29 left and also had a 7 pt lead with 1 10 left... incredible

 

[Genghis Cane]

If Duke beats UNC, do we get the 3 seed in the ACC tourney?

 

[N7954Canes]

I don't remember the last time we swept Syracuse.

 

[jkdood]

If Duke beats UNC, do we get the 3 seed in the ACC tourney?

YES

 

[NSHCane]

If Duke beats UNC, do we get the 3 seed in the ACC tourney?

Pretty sure

 

[Genghis Cane]

YES

Very nice.

We came back down 10 with like 45 seconds left a few years ago. Was incredible. Can't remember who we played.

 

[rayray]

this team always fights, for all its flaws I just love rooting for them.

Miller is prob the one guy on this team who might have a shot of playing in the NBA... he's a really good basketball player at 6-7, he just needs to find an outside shot. but as a small ball 4 in college he's fantastic. he fought all the way ACROSS the lane and bowled through like 3 Syracuse players to get the rebound off that Moore missed free throw

 

[canedotcom]

if haven’t enjoyed this team and this season…

 

[NSHCane]

This comeback is even more incredible when you think of how poorly we shot from 3. The Boeheim brothers in their final game at the Carrier Dome and Buddy goes off for 30, yet we still pulled it off.

Facts! This is from page 1, in the book of ‘How to get your *** beat by teams that you’re better than’. You can’t wait till you’re about to lose to turn it on. That’s a recipe for disaster. It will eventually catch up with you. Especially this time of year.

 

[KANE]

Saved it for the win at the end.

Yeah we did. Great comeback, but you can’t rely on being able to “hit the switch” all the time.

This is a team with an 8 man rotation due to poor roster construction and guys like Gak and Miller being simply unplayable. That said, we have completely overachieved this year and are going to be in tournament for the first time in 4 years. Anyone nitpicking about anything at this point or expecting more has simply lost the plot.
