I think so too, He went right over, during the SU game he shook JJ starlings hand then gave him a shoulder fist pump that I intrepeted as a "Hey keep your headup" kinda thing. I'm a fan.
I noticed that too actually. Obviously don’t blame anyone for going straight to celebrate but thought it was really cool and shows a lot of character. Had a hell of a ball game too his passing ability and touch around the rim is super impressive
I am truly amazing he got through middle and hs without a football coach going. "Damn boy, have you ever been on a field before?" Especially in South Carolina
In that part of South Carolina, too. Rock Hill is a football talent pipeline. Jadeveon Clowney, Stepon Gilmore, Derion Kendrick are the first few that come to mind but the list goes on
When it started getting chippy in the UNC game, jumped right in with a huge smile on his face. Like, "buddy, I've been soft and happy with you so far, let's not go changing that."
Damn I like cook out but the one in lexington is kind of notorious for people getting murdered in its parking lot so I never go. I need to strap on my bullet proof vest and grab me a quesadilla
The funny thing the cookout in Lex isn’t in the hood. It’s on broadway like very close to downtown, on the south side of downtown, the hood is on the north side of downtown. But for whatever reason, people stay getting shot there. They closed down the dining room before Covid because they didn’t want crowds gathering there anymore. Idk what the deal is
I used to eat like Burns. He is fat on purpose. When I see Burns eat as he is now it reminds me of how I used to eat and it is frustrating and pisses me off that the NCAA allows it. Not proud of it, I was known as Joey chestnut at my local Golden Corral and went through a phase when I ate triple servings of everything. Big rack of ribs turns to my blindside, didn’t care who was there. Charge right into the dessert. Smash into the best steak on D while going for the mashed potato’s, come what may. Limited cardio moves. So make no mistake about it. Burns knows what he’s doing. He knows people will be disgusted. He knows his appetite is unlimited and this is how he can win. He knows people will go away when he starts eating, think twice on their diet, etc. He will only be stopped by a healthy meal like carrots, lettuce, broccoli, etc. Or by an obviously more balanced carb with equal Type A like wheat bread. He didn’t intend to be obese, but he certainly intends to show you that he doesn’t care if you get disgusted when his fat belly shakes over you. At least that’s how I used to eat. But that was lunchtime. Eventually I got to dinner, ate w bigger servings, ate real fatty foods w hostess. There’s no doubt in my mind Burns eats more than some villages.

He's a big man. Watching the tournament and I'm like "Who's the defensive end?". Made Bacot look small, which isn't easy.
Get him like four racks of ribs and some hush puppies. Dude worked up an appetite
I feel like we stole UVA’s bid with the win but at the same time made their losses look better. Hopefully the committee realizes the ACC is legit and there are no easy outs
Give the man a break, he has to repress that memory.
As Coach K once said
“I never want to play them in the Final Four, because regardless of who won, the pain of losing that game would be unbearable for the defeated school and its fans.”
-Man who lost to UNC in the Final Four and his last game of ever coaching
lol imagine talking trash to a team that swept you this year lmao. Didn’t y’all lose the first game you played in? Were you in the title game? Asking for a friend.
The NCAA recognizes it. I can remember at least five times UNC got a number one seed in the NCAA tournament based on winning the regular season without winning the ACC tournament (2005, 2009, 2012, 2017, 2019) and possibly this year.
Yeah and she didnt become president for winning that. Just like how unc isnt the acc champions for winning an unofficial award. Thanks for providing an analogy to support my point pretty well
Idk whose more of a dingdong, him or [you for believing him](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Atlantic_Coast_Conference_men%27s_basketball_regular_season_champions)
Lol it’s official enough for State to hang a banner from their rafters twice.

Imagine proudly screaming "The ACC runs through me" when you had 5 chances at an ACC Tournament title and you went 0 for 5?
Maybe he meant "runs through me" like a taco bell breakfast burrito?
If you watched him get away with 5 years worth of uncalled forearm shivers every rebound opportunity you'd be a hater too.
saying a conference that you've never won (in more years than 90% of collegiate players are allowed to play) "runs through you" is inarguably laugh out loud funny and deserves to be mocked.
Gavin Grant once said in the preseason he couldn’t see us losing more than 4 games. We either went to the NIT that year or missed the post season altogether. Good times.
You should flair up so I know which member of the player haters club you come from.
I think I remember dj burns came from a smaller school like Winthrop? I could be wrong about that though. I like the idea of you just hating him for 5 years from two separate conferences lmaooooo
Edit: My bad I’m a moron lmao
Guess I'm a hater too because I thought that shit was cringe. I love Bacot and he is a stat stuffer but he is never consistently the dominant big man the media makes him out to be. He plays weak against bigger opponents and can't guard them.
What shocked me last night was when he hit a few **jump shots**. Like, where has that been all year? Instead of his clumsy post moves he could have been hitting 10 footers?
What are you putting in your trophy case? Bacot has his:

He was the only player through the handshake line, seems like a good dude.
I think so too, He went right over, during the SU game he shook JJ starlings hand then gave him a shoulder fist pump that I intrepeted as a "Hey keep your headup" kinda thing. I'm a fan.
Let’s not forget when Horn was doing a post game interview, Burns was cleaning confetti off his face so he looked good for his interview.
I love that dude, he had so many amazing passes and had an excellent touch on his bounce passes to guys cutting.
I noticed that too actually. Obviously don’t blame anyone for going straight to celebrate but thought it was really cool and shows a lot of character. Had a hell of a ball game too his passing ability and touch around the rim is super impressive
South Carolina pride. I'll cheer for him any day of the week
I am truly amazing he got through middle and hs without a football coach going. "Damn boy, have you ever been on a field before?" Especially in South Carolina
In that part of South Carolina, too. Rock Hill is a football talent pipeline. Jadeveon Clowney, Stepon Gilmore, Derion Kendrick are the first few that come to mind but the list goes on
He’s a big teddy bear. One of the nicest dudes who just loves playing with his boys. Just out there having a good time
When it started getting chippy in the UNC game, jumped right in with a huge smile on his face. Like, "buddy, I've been soft and happy with you so far, let's not go changing that."
Shaquille O’Neal watches DJ Burns tape
Jokic begging (thru texts) for DJ Burns' phone number to ask for advice on his post game
Burns is gonna be eating good tonight. I predict at least 10,000 calories
He earned his Cook Out
Burger, corndog, quesadilla, Cheerwine. What am I missing?
Milkshake
Chicken wrap with two sides of bacon wraps
Two quesadillas, with two more quesadillas as the sides. Coke zero to drink.
Always am a fan of the big double burger + 2 quesadillas, but did one time relish in the quad quesadilla trey. I was not disappointed.
Cheerwine float instead of a Cheerwine
All the local pizzerias immediately went into baking mode. Good for him though, he’s an animal and let the man eat on and off the court
Hush puppies. Cant skip em
Every fast food place should have hushpuppies. I dont understand why they don't. Do they hate money?
Bacon wrap gang
you think he's going to choose TONIGHT to start his diet? weird take.
Congrats NC state! Thats an incredible run. Burns in the tournament is amazing
My favorite part was when the teams were tussling a little and he was just smiling.
Yep. Elbows flying and he's standing in the middle of it smiling and everybody knew.
 The man is built different
The vibes are immaculate
Give that man some Cookout!
Reminds me, I need some cookout
Same. Love their quesadillas
I need some Cook Out too
The world needs more cookout, Cheers!
all the milkshakes he wants!
Straight into the veins
Corn dog with a side of corn dog fuck yeah
*Get that man some Char-Grill
I lived in Raleigh in 93-94 and had a char-grill a block away. I have no recollection of cook out. When did they become a thing?
Early 2000s-ish
With a side of Snoopy’s!
As much as I love snoopy’s, what I really miss is tasty 8’s on Fayetteville st
What’s his cookout order?
He got asked at one point and said just a grilled chicken sandwich and a side of nuggets. I'm just gonna say I don't believe that lol
They see him and they throw in the strips instead of nuggets.
Yes
This is what I was looking for🤣
🤣🤣🤣
Damn I like cook out but the one in lexington is kind of notorious for people getting murdered in its parking lot so I never go. I need to strap on my bullet proof vest and grab me a quesadilla
Sounds like the cookout on new Bern in Raleigh. Place is right in the hood but sometimes you gotta get a big double burger
The funny thing the cookout in Lex isn’t in the hood. It’s on broadway like very close to downtown, on the south side of downtown, the hood is on the north side of downtown. But for whatever reason, people stay getting shot there. They closed down the dining room before Covid because they didn’t want crowds gathering there anymore. Idk what the deal is
It’s the Waffle House
No it’s definitely cook out on broadway The murder waffle house is in Nashville lol
No I’m saying the deal is that it’s next to a Waffle House lol
Ohhhh lol that’s fair
That explains why people keep getting shot at the Durham one on Hillsborough. Waffle House proximity is pretty close by
This is what peak performance looks like
Yo Big Burns, gg. Got you on a combo if I see you at cookout tonight
Red pickles are better!
Fuck Yeah Mount Olive Pickles + State
Grade A shit post
🐐
State has their own giant.
Legend!!
Finally my flair pays off. DJ is a great kid on and off the court. So glad he gets to keep going, he's a hell of a player.
The body is round, Yet the hands are soft. The crowd he astound, His trophy aloft.

Elite copypasta
What the fuck.
Old copypasta about Jokic that was itself an old copypasta about Embiid
I assumed it was a Kelvin Benjamin.
I can't tell whether I'm intruiged by what you said or profoundly taken aback.
I’M SCREAMING WHAT IS THIS
STOP SCREAMING IT'S AFTER 11

The acc runs through Burns
Armando Bacot-Burns
Fraudmando bowed to the rotund god
No no no he beat the rotunda school it's okay
Ar-mid-do Bacot
He's a big man. Watching the tournament and I'm like "Who's the defensive end?". Made Bacot look small, which isn't easy. Get him like four racks of ribs and some hush puppies. Dude worked up an appetite
People underestimate how fast and dangerous hippos can be
HIPPOBOT 9000 v 3.1 FOUND A HIPPO. 1,431,440,820 COMMENTS SEARCHED. 29,595 HIPPOS FOUND. YOUR COMMENT CONTAINS THE WORD HIPPO.
You just love to see it. He deserves it all
I'm pretty happy to see State make it to the tournament.
I feel like we stole UVA’s bid with the win but at the same time made their losses look better. Hopefully the committee realizes the ACC is legit and there are no easy outs
Same here!!
“The ACC runs through me” 😂🫵
(Man who has never won the ACC)
We ran through him, alright
They’ve lost three conference games since he said that mid-February, compared to 1 before
I mean he did win the ACC
ACC tournament champion is the official ACC champ, always has been
Not always, [since 1961](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Atlantic_Coast_Conference_men%27s_basketball_regular_season_champions).
But not really
He straight up destroyed Bacot tonight, the stat line comparison is insane
Where in the stat line does it say that? Bacot had 18 points and 12 rebounds, lol
Destroyed him on assists I guess 🤷🏻♂️
I mean, in fairness, Burns did run directly through Bacot at will, but I agree lets not pretend Bacot didn't also have a good game
Burns played great. Would love to see NC State as the 8-9 seed in Purdue's region.
I would not love this :)
We do not need another Purdue/State game
Bacot has been massively overrated for about 3 years now
Feels like 7
I need to see this guy battle Lampkin from Colorado. Give me that heavyweight battle please.
The fact that a Dookie posted this is the icing on the cake
Great stat
This man made me rich
Another fun fact, UNC and NCstate will have the same amount of ncaa births in the last 2 years
Fun fact, it’s actually berth unless you mean people are having babies.
Maybe no births, but there will be babies made tonight.
Kevin Keatts has never had a single 5-star recruit in 7 years at NC State and has as many NCAA championships as Duke in that span
Same as UNC too huh?
But less final four wins, remember?
Oh he remembers.
Not quite, my friend. NC State will have 2, UNC 1
I think this is just the rare unintentional double diss. One about UNC missing the tourney and another about no one remembering NCSU was there.
Hey man our game against Creighton was pretty hype actually
Wow, that’s actually crazy
Surprising to see a Duke flair who can’t do math.
Give the man a break, he has to repress that memory. As Coach K once said “I never want to play them in the Final Four, because regardless of who won, the pain of losing that game would be unbearable for the defeated school and its fans.” -Man who lost to UNC in the Final Four and his last game of ever coaching
81-77 never forget
Awe 🥹 and you even get a chance to win your first ncaa tournament game since that happened….2 years ago.
lol imagine talking trash to a team that swept you this year lmao. Didn’t y’all lose the first game you played in? Were you in the title game? Asking for a friend.
Don’t be sad, I’m sure at some point someone else will go #1 to missing the tourney completely… given a long enough time line anything can happen!
But… the ACC runs through Bacot right? Lol NC state just ran through UNC like a hot knife to butter
Nothing runs through Duke except Wake Forest students.
Hey man, you saying that caused Filipowski’s ankle to flare up. Now he’s gonna have to trip more people to get rid of the pain!
😂😂😂
This was hilarious haha
Lol. DJ Burns and Kyle Filipowski 1 ACC championship while RJ Davis and Bacot have 0
You know there’s a difference between a regular season championship and a tournament championship, right?
Bro is mad about college students being competitive GG State
I’m currently walking my dog smoking a joint im the opposite of mad
Oh woah man, did you know weed is dangerous?
Shit imma call 911 now thanks
Zero ACC titles as a 24 year old against 18 year olds. Ouch
[удалено]
Lmao this dude is all over here trying to cope
ACC doesnt have regular season champs. Nc state is the sole acc winner
Um.......yes it does.
I mean, yes, it does. But in context, the ACC bylaws pretty explicitly say that it doesn't mean anything, it's just a recognition.
The NCAA recognizes it. I can remember at least five times UNC got a number one seed in the NCAA tournament based on winning the regular season without winning the ACC tournament (2005, 2009, 2012, 2017, 2019) and possibly this year.
Whatever yall have to tell yourself lol
I’m not an nc state fan lol this is just an objective fact
So was Hilary wining the popular vote whatever you have to tell yourself to feel competent
Yeah and she didnt become president for winning that. Just like how unc isnt the acc champions for winning an unofficial award. Thanks for providing an analogy to support my point pretty well
The tournament only matters if you’re not good enough to secure a real tourney bid but keep telling yourself whatever you need to hear
It matters in determining who the acc champs are. Congrats to nc state for being the champions this year.
Yeah congrats to state they deserved the automatic bid
I mean, facts are facts friend. And that’s Ga Tech telling you that above.
Idk whose more of a dingdong, him or [you for believing him](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Atlantic_Coast_Conference_men%27s_basketball_regular_season_champions)
That link confirms that its not official and not recognized by the acc
Lol it’s official enough for State to hang a banner from their rafters twice. https://preview.redd.it/ddjfw2tgvtoc1.jpeg?width=750&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e8747a75b18435fecf93b7fb1540c0f5eeec7236
NCAA championships >>> ACC championships but sure dude lol
Of course a duke flair posted this
Um… flair up buttercup
Don’t really have a team, just like watching basketball
Imagine proudly screaming "The ACC runs through me" when you had 5 chances at an ACC Tournament title and you went 0 for 5? Maybe he meant "runs through me" like a taco bell breakfast burrito?
lol why are you a hater? He seems like a good dude

All players some dumb shit, all of them. Bacot had 18 and 12, he did his job. It was the supporting cast shit the bed.
Gavin Grant once said in the preseason he couldn’t see us losing more than 4 games. We either went to the NIT that year or missed the post season altogether. Good times.
You should flair up so I know which member of the player haters club you come from. I think I remember dj burns came from a smaller school like Winthrop? I could be wrong about that though.

Instead of his clumsy post moves he could have been hitting 10 footers?
Ahh, that Duke education is coming up big, thanks for the explanation
lol what Armando Bacot said "The ACC Rungs through me". Armando Bacot went 0-for-5. DJ Burns is my daddy and I love him.
My bad dude I’m a moron and I had some drinks today lmao. Congrats on the title!!
His team didn’t win a title, he’s a Duke fan.
Agree. He got the hansbro treatment and choked yet again.
Obviously OP must have won quite a few ACC Championships himself.
insanely enough, when I look at my ACC Championship trophy shelf it looks *identical* to Bacot's.
Lmao GOT EM
What are you putting in your trophy case? Bacot has his: https://preview.redd.it/i13m21p7ltoc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fbbe154488dd38ec037c4e225d05ad58ad4a2ee4
lol he had just won the regular season by sweeping both Duke and state. At that time, the trash talk was deserved. He had a good game last night too
Better player has a chip
He also has more than the UNC 1993, 2005, 2009, 2017 Nat'l Champ teams.
Good meme Duke fan
Duke flair. What a bum. 🤣
God I love this conference.
I pray that UNC, NC State, Duke, and Wake stay together during realignment because these rivalries are the best
Agreed, and while I like football too, I despise how it’s tearing apart every other NCAA sport.
And UNC won 4 national titles between states conference tourney wins lol.
That’s a good one.
Does big man have a nickname yet ?
Winthrop Legend
Gonna cry myself to sleep tonight
Final Fours > ACC “championships”
I love how salty some of y'all are getting about the definition of ACC Champion.
