Hey ACC Fans and more specifically UNC fans

[PA_Panther]

I can’t believe the refs in the Miami Pitt game counted Burton’s shot as a 3 and never reviewed it. Could you imagine if Hinson would have hit that shot at the buzzer for the “win”?

Honestly it would have been shitty to win that way. TV Teddy and Jamie Luckey were so bad both ways last night. There were times where I would just laugh at the calls.

Going forward, Pitt did a great job shutting down Wong and took a bench guy going 6-8 from behind the arc to beat us. I think we can win a game in the Tourney, which is good enough for me.

That's one way to look at it. I could say it took Miami to have more than twice as many turnovers at Pitt yesterday for Pitt to have a chance. And that was really disappointing to see in a home game, especially considering some of them were very careless.

All bs aside though, the teams are pretty evenly matched. Miami had a couple chances to push the lead to double digits and you guys just kept making plays and wouldn't go away. Knew it would be a dogfight. I respect the hell out of Pitt this season. Just a group that's tough as hell, gritty, and physical. Very similar to their Big East teams. Hinson is a baller.

For the record, Poplar is not a bench guy, he has been a starter all year. He didn't "start" yesterday bc Coach L put in two seniors to start the game on senior day. The other 4 starters get all the love but he's a key piece and is improving rapidly. He came up huge yesterday.

Predictions for All-ACC teams and awards?

It's about as hard to say as trying to pick what team will win the ACC tournament

CoY = Kenny Payne

 

[dukedevilz]

Picking the ACC Awards won't be easy this year. Lots of good players. But, we didn't have a whole lot elite players that distinguished themselves from the rest of the pack

Here are my flawed picks...

POY: Isaiah Wong
COY: Jeff Capel
FOY: Kyle Filipowski
DPOY: Reece Beekman

1st Team
Jamarius Burton, Pittsburgh
Jarkel Joiner, NC State
Isaiah Wong, Miami
Hunter Tyson, Clemson
Armando Bacot, North Carolina

2nd Team
Tyree Appleby, Wake Forest
Kihei Clark, Virginia
Terquavion Smith, NC State
Jordan Miller, Miami
Kyle Filipowski, Duke

3rd Team
Chase Hunter, Clemson
Reece Beekman, Virginia
Blake Hinson, Pittsburgh
Norchad Omier, Miami
Jesse Edwards, Syracuse

Nicely done. It's so hard picking the all-conference teams but you did a good job with it.

Even as a Miami fan, I don't see Wong winning POY at all. I legitimately think the rest of college basketball viewers think he is better than all Miami fans do. He was good this season, far from great, with some ugly moments mixed in.

There's definitely not a clear-cut winner this year. If it were based more on stats and less on how a team performed, I might say Bacot or Appleby would be the two frontrunners. But, there's definitely a huge advantage to one of the better teams receiving POY.

I think you could legitimately argue that Jordan Miller is the most productive Miami player. But feel like Wong has more notoriety, and more likely to receive votes than Miller... So, Idk. You could easily give the ACC POY to 5-6 different guys this year.

Dariq Whitehead is trying to give Trimble guidance on where to pass the ball. It's alleged that he even screamed, "Leaky is open!"

Hah! Nailed it.

I picked Wong and said if it based more on player production, it would be between Appleby and Bacot.

Flip should be on 1st team over Burton imo. I don't have too many major qualms with much else though.

lol right. Remove them from the voting panel immediately.

Imagine what UVA could accomplish in this league if we had a top 10 player or a top 3 coach

Flip should have been on first team. Leaky should have been DPOY though. Beekman is very good but to me logic would dictate it would be way more difficult to be an effective defender on this UNC team than on a UVA team that excels defensively and is way more cohesive on that end. Leaky basically eliminated the POY when they faced off.

Yeah, Wong absolutely got the boost from Miami finishing #1, along with UNC having a disappointing season. If UNC finished higher I think it def would've been Bacot.

Wong is a fantastic player. I have zero issues with him winning it. They had a great year and he was a big reason why.

Miami is the best team in the league what's their seed?
