2nd Unofficial Official GAMEDAY Thread

If anyone can find the box score to post it would be great. OFC
 
I believe Alex got the message, he played a much better 2nd half. He hit some three's and played much better. Team played great defense with a lot of energy. Offense much better. Now on to Kansas. We need to put a Kensucky azz whipping on them!!!

Looks like Goldwire had a heck of a game 8 assists, 2 turnover, and 5 steals. Stanley and Joey as well.
 
Just now watching.. my two questions are what exactly did tre do over the summer? Practice shooting must of not been part of it and does Avery call games or is this just a special thing?
 
Wasn’t able to watch, can someone provide cliffs?

Starting lineup was

Tre
Goldwire
Stanley
Hurt
Carey

The tone was set on defense, full court man and some trapping. Lots of turnovers created. Lots of off the turnovers, layups and dunks.

Hurt’s three was falling. It looked good. Tre still struggles from out there.

Baker came off the bench on a mission. Was like 5-6 from 3 at one point. Shot it with confidence.

Moore a lot better, played how we expected. Active in various ways, put back dunk, steals, rebounds, short pull up jumper and even knocked a three down from the corner.

Alex was disappointing in the first half. A couple of bad turnover.

Carey was great, posted up well like in the ctc scrimmage.

Overall a good showing. Alex much better in second half.

They handled an overmatched team the way it’s supposed to be done.

During the offseason I remember hearing a lot of talk about how we were going to have more balanced scoring this season and from looking at the game stats it looks like that might be the case because we had 7 players score in double figures and we had 5 other players score between 2-7 points. Also we had 14 players see time and 12 of them scored. The only 2 players that didn’t score were DeLaurier and Buckmire. I know it was just an exhibition game but hopefully we consistently have 5-7 players that score in double figures and we can consistently get some points from our bench this season.
 
Why in the world would we schedule Fort Valley State? I'm sure there is a good reason but from a "yep, this team will make us better" standpoint, I don't see it.

Probably to do with the relationship between the coaches

Coach K always schedules our exhibition games against DII schools and like someone else mentioned probably because of the connection that Fort Valley State’s Head Coach has to Durham and meeting Coach K when he was a kid.
 
Hard to tell due to the competition but i GUESS you wouldn't start with this lineup unless you were seriously considering going to it next game?

Tre
Goldwire
Stanley
Hurt
Carey

Yall think this is the lineup for KU game at MSG?
This is Dukes best press line up right now imo. I mentioned in the starting line up thread I could see it happening.

Goldwire is averaging atleast three steals in the two exhibitions and I think Tre is averaging two.

Looked good last night just think Duke needs to take the open three more. Alex and Moore are to passive when open from the arch .

Think Carey is still trying to find himself in the college stage but KU will show his skills against their bigs.

Well that was a fun game. Tre/Goldwire backcourt is disruptive! Looking forward to seeing them together a lot this year. Hurt can get buckets—-makes it look easy. Joey may be slow-footed, but loved seeing him light it up. Will definitely carve out a role on this team with shooting like that. Some great helpside D out of Stanley.

Great seeing the team play loose and tenacious.
 
What was the guys name that posted last year that we didn’t value time if you watched the game live?
 
Champ doesn’t post here when we’re winning

Y'all love me hahaha. I enjoy the fandom. It's football season. I post less around this time. I know you have my posts screenshotted from last year. I was the one who always said we would win and always on the winning game threads hahaha. i enjoy less traffic when we win. the fakes come out when we lose

“Y’all love making fun of me hahaha.”

Fixed it for ya.
 

Smh. I’m convinced y’all three on some funny business. I’m talking to Ms SoCal and here you come with your other man liking your comment. It’s all good family. I’m here to talk about Duke basketball. If there’s a problem outside of that we can handle it like men. That’s all I’ll say about that. Outside of that just talk about the game and team. Let’s get this dub on Tuesday
