And it being at MSG was just perfect. It sucks that it's ending. Sucks even more that I started a new job 5 months ago and can't take tomorrow and Thursday off to watch it one last time like I have over the years.
My top 3 BET memories in order...G-Mac's incredible 4-day run in '06. The 6-OT classic. Dave Johnson hitting a GW shot to beat G'town in the early 90's. Obviously enjoyed many incredible performances, games and players that didn't involve Syracuse as well. I really hate that this is the last go-round.
Agreed that the Big East Tournament has always been a fanatastic event, one of the best. And, even as an ACC fan, probably the best over the last decade and a half.
With that said, welcome to the ACC Tournament, the oldest, most storied and only tournament in America that crowns the official conference champion. With Duke, North Carolina, Syracuse, Louisville, North Carolina State and Miami (as well as Wake Forest, Notre Dame, Pitt and Virginia), it's going to once again be the greatest conference tournament in the land, the way it once was, and word is that in the coming years, in addition to its traditional home in Greensboro, it could be making occasional appearances in Madison Square Garden.
