All but guaranteed to play Miami Tuesday in DC.

Miami-Cuse-Virginia would be a dream draw.

BC is probably the 12 seed, so what has you so confident that Miami will be the 13? Agreed on Miami Cuse UVA as being ideal

Edit: disregard I learned how to reed and cownt. We’re probably the 11 seed. Ok, makes sense

Quinten Post 2nd team all-ACC makes sense

Quinten Post 1st team all-defense is awkward

That’s kinda wild. Did they measure this based on fouls and technicals committed?

Heck of an all-around performance against Miami. Hand looked really good today, great potential for future. Hope they can bring it again vs. Clemson tomorrow.

1 down, 4 to go.

If we played like that all season, we wouldn't have been playing last night at all!

a couple of impressive answers when miami made runs to get it from 15ish to 8 or so. if they played like that more often they wouldn't have been playing on tuesdays. earl 4-2 in acc tourneys is pretty impressive

6 point underdogs tonight

I feel like first team all-defense type folks don’t head to the bench early with foul trouble on a steady reliable basis

Armani Mighty and Prince Aligbe are a treat to watch on offense. Comedy is my favorite

Gritty play got to give Earl credit so far. Harris is hitting his shots but they aren’t getting much else on offense.

If this gear exists it’s puzzling that it doesn’t get tapped into until the acc tournament. Maybe we don’t have to rely on it if we do this on Wednesdays at 9?

See this. Is there a reason we didn’t play like this before now?

Another impressive performance.

How many more wins are required for entry into the NIT?

I hate his old man Woody Harrelson CYO game but you have to credit Zachery for a great game.

Incredible performance. Harris was on his game, the defense, rebounding, and free throw shooting was great all around, and they had an awesome stretch when Post was in foul trouble on the bench. I especially loved to see the slow methodical style once they had the lead. I hope they do the same against Virginia and make it a defensive struggle -- as long as they can contain Virginia's quick guard who dominated at the end of the regular season game.

The last two games were their best performances of the year, maybe they can keep it going. Fingers crossed for tomorrow!!

can see hand starting to put it together, i probably had unrealistic expectations this season given recovery from acl.

agreed, kudos to zachary and for chasing girard around.

i know several of these wins came on tuesday specials in front of ghosts but 5-2 in the acc tournament is pretty impressive for earl

I was only able to IB the game. Why did Post only play 24mins?

got 2 fouls in first 7 minutes (second was incredibly soft). he left there were up 10 or so and they were able to maintain lead through half so earl kept him on bench. guess a blessing for tonight

not going to lie when clemson threw the zone and we had a lineup with mighty and prince out there i feared the lead would be gone in a minute

This, in a 9pm conte morgue game they probably use post’s early shelfing as an excuse to pack it in, but it was inspiring to see them rally around it and keep Post fresh on the bench until the 2nd half. Again kudos to Earl. But again, Earl, where is this grittiness the prior 4 months

Got to give the officials credit. Nobody in foul trouble for no reason

Regardless of whether we win or lose tonight, Quentin Post is the best Dutch basketball player since Rik Smits. Stunned none of the nerds decided to recycle the Dunkin’ Dutchman moniker.

Also, hell is listening to Cory Alexander do play by play in a game where your team is playing UVA.

If Hand is playing key minutes with Glock out, he probably shouldn’t be playing horse in OT

They'd have won this game with one player that could shoot. Other than Madsen's accident at the buzzer they didn’t score from 5:21 in the 4th to :58 in OT. Essentially 10 mins with 2 points.

Also, even UVa and their terrible shooting can create a few open ones with play design and good screens.

Zachery getting a huge board and then just giving it to UVa sums up this team. Nice run, bad talent.

Waiting until March to center your offense around getting the ball to Post down low is some bullshit

Waiting until the last 10 minutes of the game to stop doing it sucked worse.

Underachieving and then making an ACC quarterfinal run down to the wire is not progress. They did that 2 years ago. Fucking next

To their credit, they did that all this game and the game vs Miami
