Welcome to another podcast from Inside Carolina.com, the independent voice of UNC Sports, brought to you by Johnny T-shirt.com, the go-to provider for all your tarheel gear.

And I'm your host, Tommy Ashley, joined by Dewey Burke, Sherell McMillan. You're listening to the Inside Carolina podcast, sponsored by Johnny T-shirt.com. Duke 74, Carolina 73. Dewey, you've got a take on it. We talked about it a little bit off air. I've got mine. I want to hit Shirel. So your overall thoughts on Carolina's one point lost to Duke and the ACC CEMIs.

Yeah, it's a great game, obviously.

And we battled.

There was no, in my opinion, no question of effort from any of our guys.

To me, it was about shooting.

I mean, if you look at the stats, we didn't turn the ball over,

we outrebounded them, which is surprising, given the way Zion plays. We just couldn't make

shots. Four for 27 from three, and outside of Cam hitting those first couple, we were two for 25.

I mean, we were brutal shooting the ball. And to me, that's what it came down to.

If we make a couple shots, I think we win that game pretty easily. Like I said, a great basketball

game, and they've got a super talent on their team that is nearly impossible to stop. And he made

the last play that ultimately won the game, unfortunately.

Yeah, and that play sort of summed it up, Sherell, when I was watching the game with my boy,

I was like, Carolina's got to rebound if they missed.

They will miss enough shots.

And if Carolina can rebound the basketball, and there were a couple of plays in the first half that we can talk about that stood out.

But in the second half, especially late, there's a ball rolling around,

and I believe Goldwire picks it up and gets an easy putback.

And then they get what they want.

They force Zion into a tough shot in the lane.

He follows it up and gives Duke the lead.
