***DUKE VS GONZAGA MAUI INVITE FINAL OFFICIAL GAMEDAY THREAD***

[crazyduke3]

Best offensive team we’ve faced and it shows.

 

[retiredsoldier]

Duke will settle down and Gonzaga is hitting everything right now, we'll see how long they can contain this. Duke not playing great yet, but just what they need. their first real test to see how they adjust.

 

[duhondukie]

Jones is playing really soft right now.

 

[K-oach Q]

Man so far we can’t stop them at all....they are scoring on almost every trip down....

 

[dukiejay]

The Zags are hitting 67% from the field and over 60% from deep. We’re going to be ok.

 

[SoCal_Dukie3]

The Zags are hitting 67% from the field and over 60% from deep. We’re going to be ok.

Keep saying that. They'll be up by 10 shortly.

I don't see them fading.

 

[duhondukie]

We are playing really young and Gonzaga is playing out of their minds

 

[DukeRulesBasketball]

The Zags are hitting 67% from the field and over 60% from deep. We’re going to be ok.

It sucks these type of performances ALWAYS have to come against us!

 

[SoCal_Dukie3]

Jones is playing really soft right now.

But he's hit some clutch jumpers...

 

[DukeRulesBasketball]

Man we can’t stop them right now!

 

[Mpm277]

The Zags are hitting 67% from the field and over 60% from deep. We’re going to be ok.

It's not just that they're shooting well. We're giving them open looks and just overall getting outplayed so far.

 

[WI#1Dukie22]

May need to change our defensive philosophy tonight.

Young kids learning about shot selection on the fly tonight. Better wake up- zags throwing hay makers early

Zion and Tre appear to be rattled. Don’t believe they have seen this sort of speed and execution before

 

[jrtplaya]

Gonzaga is a good team. Doesn't help when we are playing Duke defense of the past few seasons right now.

 

[crazyduke3]

Not getting stopS. Our young defense may not be ready for their experienced offense

 

[SoCal_Dukie3]

Go zone. They can't stay in front of the Zags. If they make their 3's at this clip, so be it.

 

[K-oach Q]

It's not just that they're shooting well. We're giving them open looks and just overall getting outplayed so far.

Yeah so far they are getting whatever they want...they really move the ball very very well...

 

[IPSYCHOSIS]

Don’t look comfortable as they do

 

[Louisville Crazie]

Gonzaga is shooting such a high clip because a lot of it is wide open. Their ball movement is exposing our youth right now. I’m curious to see how the team responds to this challenge.

 

[wcu1113]

Horrific defense. Have to adjust.

 

[crazyduke3]

The Zags are hitting 67% from the field and over 60% from deep. We’re going to be ok.

I’m not sure about that. This at least is a healthy test

 

[mjccontreras]

Zags shooting 75% from the field. Unreal

 

[SoCal_Dukie3]

This could get ugly, like 20+ loss.

Good news is it should bring them back down to earth and help them see their flaws.

 

[JohnstonCDevil]

We are playing as freshmen right now!! It can't get half time soon enough!!!
OFC

 

[dukiejay]

We’re really rattled right now....compounding bad defense with bad offense.

 

[WI#1Dukie22]

NOTHIN EASY FOR US

 

[LONMUNU]

Let’s see how they respond because right now they are getting punched in the mouth.

 

[denverexpat]

defense is one thing...but not scoring at the same pace we have been isnt helping either

 

[IPSYCHOSIS]

The Zags are hitting 67% from the field and over 60% from deep. We’re going to be ok.

They also missed some wide open ones on top of that lol

 

[duhondukie]

Amazing offense by Gonzaga. They are moving the ball and doing a great job of putting us in rotation.

 

[DiehardDukeFan4Life]

We need to tighten up our defense and make better shot selection in a hurry before this game gets away from us

 

[Showenuff]

Now. Let’s see if we answer.

 

[K-oach Q]

We will be lucky to be within single digits at the end of the half....

 

[WI#1Dukie22]

Their shooting will come back to earth. Get out of this half with in reach and hope K has a plan. Very rattled

 

[retiredsoldier]

Not sure why they don't put Zion on 21. He may be a little too tough right at this moment. Let's Go Duke

 

[K-oach Q]

Our offense is pressing because our defense can’t make a stop...pretty typical...if we start to defend the offense will come....but when you have to score every single trip because that’s what the other team is doing it really compounds things....

 

[DeepColor]

Zags getting all the breaks, Duke defense looks tired.

 

[Mpm277]

Say what you will, but we're down 14 and it's really not even that close.

 

[Mr.Scary13]

LOL at this BS...

 

[JohnstonCDevil]

Every loose ball us theirs! We have to change that!!!
OFC

 

[Buzzooka Joe]

We look tired
