After Dabo mocked the long walk from the visiting locker rooms to the field here at Wallace Wade, it appears that Duke put a bunch of children’s bounce houses in Clemson’s path
My mom is at a party at Kevin Costner’s house … along with Harry & Megan. So, if you’re wondering what it’s like to be the coolest one in the family, I clearly have no idea
Instead, I’ll be buying a lawn chair & patio table tomorrow morning & sit out in our driveway whenever he wants to practice, to make sure our neighbors don’t try to get him killed (5/5)
Someone asked k if Zion’s performance reminded him of Ryan Kelly’s return game. “Well there’s a difference in athletic ability, so I didn’t think of that. At all”
46 games between Duke and UNC with both in the Top 10 is the most in any series in college basketball. Next most? 14. Duke and UNC have had that many since 2001.
Donnie Brasco, all three Godfathers, Goodfellas. Sean Miller has never seen any of these movies? Not a single episode of the Sopranos? DON'T USE THE PHONE
Best part: Start of next practice, Coach K lined everyone up on the court in their spots and ran that play again. When Laettner missed, K said, "That's how close we are to our season being over"
Flip knew he was close to a triple double. "I tried to get Coach to leave me in for the last two minutes to get it, but he said, 'You're closer to a quadruple double with turnovers.' So that put me in my place real quick"
And now, one of my favorite Dave Doeren traditions: Everyone ... EVERYONE ... that is a part of the football team from players to media relations staff gets a game ball when NC State beats Carolina.
Jon Scheyer now has more ACC Tournament wins than Jeff Bzdelik, Steve Forbes, Dino Gaudio, Pat Kennedy, Dave Leitao, Tates Locke, Bob Staack, Larry Shyatt, Kevin Stallings, Bucky Waters, Chris Mack, Danny Manning, Banks McFadden and Rick Pitino
He went outside (in our cul de sac) to practice with it. Within 10 minutes, the police pulled up. Not sure who but one of our neighbors called them and the came right away (that’s a lie, I know exactly who it was) (2/?)
“When Marvin (Bagley) got here, some of the guys may have thought ‘He’s going to take my place.’ Then they see him play & realize ‘That’s not my place’”—coach k
Eric was my first interview as an NBA reporter. I went up to him at his locker pregame & started right in with my question.
He held up one finger to stop me, then held out his hand to shake.
"How are you doing? I'm Eric Montross."
Jeff Capel rips UNC social media team (specifies that it "wasn't Hubert") for a negative post about his brother. Says Carolina fans have been "sh*tty" toward Jason since 2009
"Well, UNC, the good news is you don't have to play Kentucky in Louisville to get to the Final Four."
"Whew"
"you have to play Kansas in Kansas City for the chance to play Kentucky to get to the Final Four"
We're only five minutes into UNC's exhibition opener, but Coby White has already dethroned Marvin Bagley III for the title of Greatest Hair in ACC History
He set the drill rifle down and stepped away as soon as he saw the car approach. They were not aggressive with him and saw right away that it was “a misunderstanding” on the neighbor’s part (3/?)
assuming Zion has played his last college game, this will forever remain an odd section of the Duke career rebounding list:
#102
Greg Paulus, 293 rebounds
#103
Zion Williamson 292 rebounds
#104
Steve Wojciechowski, 291 rebounds
After tonight's

after injuring his knee against UNC, Zion Williamson sat on the trainers table, watching the game, until his mom arrived. "Then I cried in her arms." 24 days later, he's the

Also breaking: there appears to be a giant tub of Duke’s Mayonnaise on the Gatorade table, so prepare for the most awkward postgame pour on the winning coach’s head ever

I really clicked on this because I needed to know if "chainsaw fight" meant two people, both armed with a chainsaw, were fighting. Sadly, that was not the case. It was one person. That's not a chainsaw fight. That's a fight with a chainsaw. Irresponsible journalism. I am appalled
