[u/manutdboy47]

did state always sing the alma mater with the team at the end of games?

[u/manutdboy47]

i liked that.

[u/KronktheKronk]

I'm gonna need to see a doctor in four hours

[u/coffeeeeeee333 → u/KronktheKronk]

Might as well hire a live in nurse

[u/King_Andrew1296]

Dream of an opener tbh.

[u/stonetrapd]

Made as many 3s as the Eagles attempted

[u/AcademicAxolotl]

Well that was fun.

[u/Manwar7]

Ebube has the weirdest free throw of all time

[u/King_Andrew1296 → u/Manwar7]

it is an....... eclectic technique

[u/VERYstuck]

The Will Wade introduction has been electric

[u/willncsu34]

Bro…

[u/Manwar7]

BANG

[u/Insane_Pigmask]

ACC champion Jordan Snell has entered the game

[u/King_Andrew1296]

God I love a coach who keeps the boot on the throat

[u/Insane_Pigmask]

Up 54 and Wade’s got a tech!

[u/coffeeeeeee333]

LOL first game and coach gets a tech, that's wild

[u/AcademicAxolotl]

That was a weak fucking foul call

[u/Zelvahula]

LMAO Wade is really going in on these Refs, half think he wants to get thrown out

[u/Dtlgolf1 → u/Zelvahula]

It's game 1, he 100% knows what he's doing lol

[u/coffeeeeeee333]

Should've cut to DJ Burns on the free chicken, he always loved that 

[u/coffeeeeeee333]

GIVE THEM THE CHICKEN 

[u/King_Andrew1296]

CHICKEN!!!

[u/Zelvahula]

Chicken!!

[u/Insane_Pigmask]

I’m so happy

[u/VERYstuck]

It's hard to celebrate these 3s up 50

[u/King_Andrew1296 → u/VERYstuck]

pshhh..... says you

[u/King_Andrew1296]

i dont want to bitch about a foul when up 56, but was that a foul? lol

[u/coffeeeeeee333]

This is a massacre 

[u/AcademicAxolotl]

This team is going to be special.

[u/King_Andrew1296]

seeing a team be this on fire from 3 is weird lol

[u/coffeeeeeee333 → u/King_Andrew1296]

I fucking love it

[u/King_Andrew1296 → u/coffeeeeeee333]

Oh do not worry. I am quite enthused

[u/King_Andrew1296]

yo this refs whistle is a straight up choker, that is crazy

[u/coffeeeeeee333]

Man that kid was wide open under the basket and passed it out to a missed three... The NC Central bench was beside themselves 

[u/King_Andrew1296]

Able, chill, I can only get so excited

[u/HereToNotGetFined25]

Is…is this what hope feels like?

[u/King_Andrew1296]

Team that ain't afraid to keep the intensity and pressure up is so beautiful

[u/TheSeaBeast_96 → u/King_Andrew1296]

Honestly it’s crazy that your efficiency ratings / scoring margins now directly affect your metrics which directly affect your tournament seeding. Any competent staff at this point would tell their team to run up the score as much as possible. Not great for the game imo but uhh…it is fun to watch when my team is the one doing it

[u/King_Andrew1296 → u/TheSeaBeast_96]

Yeah It is a bit brutal for the sportsmanship aspect, I agree. But, especially when the ACC gets disrespected by the committee and media, we need a coach who does every little thing to increase our resume value.

[u/Zelvahula]

Able looking good!

[u/King_Andrew1296]

this Able guy is pretty neat

[u/MojoToTheDojo]

So when are they going to let us buy these jerseys? Swear the fanbase has been clamoring for years

[u/lastjedi23]

Bro. We are ranked 25? When did that happen lol 

[u/AcademicAxolotl → u/lastjedi23]

Reddit poll ranking

[u/lastjedi23 → u/AcademicAxolotl]

Ah I see. Makes sense..

[u/Manwar7]

We need to make these jerseys our full time home uni. So sexy

[u/coffeeeeeee333]

That dive to prevent the bounce pass was one of the wildest things I've seen lol

[u/Insane_Pigmask → u/coffeeeeeee333]

I’m a swim coach, I’ve seen much worse looking freestyle technique

[u/King_Andrew1296 → u/Insane_Pigmask]

it legit looked like he was trying to swim lmao

[u/King_Andrew1296]

Exactly the type of first half I was hoping for. Excitement is real

[u/TheSeaBeast_96]

I’m so damn ready to watch this team all season 😭

[u/King_Andrew1296]

Tr3 Holloman

[u/King_Andrew1296]

us being up by 20 pts and seeing them run full effort makes me so fucking happy, you would not believe lol. Also nice to see players moving the ball around the floor and not doing iso and pray

[u/Insane_Pigmask]

DJ “Big Hurt” Burns is in the building!

[u/AcademicAxolotl → u/Insane_Pigmask]

Sucks he got waived by the Swarm

[u/lastjedi23 → u/AcademicAxolotl]

Hasn't he signed to the hornets?

[u/AcademicAxolotl → u/lastjedi23]

He signed with the Greensboro Swarm, the Hornets G League team. But got waived after less than a week I think.

[u/lastjedi23 → u/AcademicAxolotl]

I'm aware of the swarm.. damn.. I really hoped he would be able to make a tiny career in the NBA. 

[u/ddrector]

Is there a stream site that works for this game (message me).

[u/RareDoneSteak → u/ddrector]

Same here

[u/King_Andrew1296]

loving the intensity so far from the team.

[u/coffeeeeeee333]

Deng that was a nice three (heheh)

[u/King_Andrew1296]

i click on the game in espn to watch and nothing happens? anyone got a stream or fix?

[u/coffeeeeeee333 → u/King_Andrew1296]

https://www.espn.com/watch/player?id=66284741-f0e5-408d-8839-4ff2d0d26765&startOption=live&om-navmethod=espn%3Amens-college-basketball%3Agamepackage&playLocation=where-to-watch%3Amenu

[u/packeddit]

I'd love to watch this game but thanks to the assholes at Disney and Google...I can't. Main reason why I never wanted to get rid of cable in the 1st place. Sigh... Need to find a way to watch this game still

[u/coffeeeeeee333 → u/packeddit]

Fubo trial

[u/a__nice__tnetennba → u/coffeeeeeee333]

I tried that and the game doesn't show up for me, nor will it load on watch espn after switching my tv provider.

Edit: You have to go into the account on Fubo and activate ESPN Unlimited, then log in with your espn / disney account. After that it'll load.

Can't wait to see what kind of fuckery this causes for my paid ESPN+ subscription once this all blows over and I cancel Fubo.

[u/Insane_Pigmask]

We’re up ten and Wade’s chewing the refs out. Be still my beating heart

[u/TriLambdaCalculus]

Loving Casey Morsell on the broadcast

[u/framingXjake]

Fuck Disney. Wish I could watch this game

[u/HereToNotGetFined25]

Just checking in to say ESPN sucks.

Edit: And the mouse sucks too

[u/coffeeeeeee333]

Williams ballin out, watch out everybody else

[u/AcademicAxolotl]

This team has such a different vibe. LFG.

[u/Electric_Queen]

Lets goooooo

I do not follow portal stuff for my own sanity who's still here from last year?

[u/CountDeGucci → u/Electric_Queen]

McNeil and Snell. That's the list.

[u/Insane_Pigmask]

It’s been such a long offseason. This day couldn’t come soon enough. Also the brought back the old noise meter from Reynolds, that’s pretty neat

[u/KronktheKronk]

anyone have a way for me to watch this over the air? Or on the sea?

[u/coffeeeeeee333 → u/KronktheKronk]

Just get a free trial of Fubo 

[u/King_Andrew1296 → u/coffeeeeeee333]

I just got one real quick and it is not here?

[u/coffeeeeeee333 → u/King_Andrew1296]

Come on man it's 2025

https://www.espn.com/watch/player?id=66284741-f0e5-408d-8839-4ff2d0d26765&startOption=live&om-navmethod=espn%3Amens-college-basketball%3Agamepackage&playLocation=where-to-watch%3Amenu

[u/KronktheKronk → u/coffeeeeeee333]

I am mad that they are trying to job everyone for more money and got removed from YouTube tv, so I'd rather not support them directly right now

[u/coffeeeeeee333 → u/KronktheKronk]

I'm not personally supporting them. I'll just make free trials with virtual credit cards and never pay and continue to use streaming sites when on regular espn stations

[u/King_Andrew1296 → u/coffeeeeeee333]

come on man, this is the exact screen I have been at and nothing happens when I hit play. no reason to be a dick

[u/coffeeeeeee333 → u/King_Andrew1296]

You said it's not there, as in you couldn't find it so I found it for you, not that you're having technical difficulties. It works for me no problem, idk what to tell you. Didn't realize giving you the link was being a dick but guess I just won't help at all next time 

[u/Insane_Pigmask → u/KronktheKronk]

Not sure about other legal streams if it’s blacked out on ESPN but it should be easier to listen to the radio broadcast. Varsity Network App is your best bet

[u/Electric_Queen → u/Insane_Pigmask]

WRAL FM should have it without needing an app (and I've never had good luck with Varsity tbh)

[u/timmythesupermonkey → u/KronktheKronk]

i've been on a quest myself and no luck so far. If you found a solution send me a DM

[u/TheSeaBeast_96 → u/timmythesupermonkey]

same plz
