I thought we would shoot better today after our performance on Friday. Still hoping..... I want to see Azabukewe (spelling, whatever) get a quick 3rd foul
This will be a defensive win if we can get through this game. I still am amazed how poorly Allen and Trent are shooting the three.
Kudos to Bill Self and Kansas. Not only did we look a little tight but also confused with these heavy doubles. We are not flowing on offense. Now the GOAT gets a chance to make our own adjustments to get Bagley going. Just keep crashing the glass. Let’s go
I'd really like to see Allen's stroke come alive. He needs to shoot regular distance ones and not off balanced ones for that to happen, though.
If Allen comes alive, we can bury them.

putting Carter in with two was a mistake but even with that, horrible three point shooting and being out rebounded we have a lead. I will admit that my nerves are a wreck right now.
They get all up in a wad about how great Kansas is breaking our zone down even though they went like 3 or 4 minutes with no baskets lol
Trent seems to live for the big moments. I don’t care how he shoots all game i think he needs to touch the ball a lot in the final 10.
They just said zero fast break points for Kansas. Thought I remembered two, but guess not. That missed layup by De Sousa saved us two.
I hope Coach is saying over & over REBOUND, REBOUND, & REBOUND!!!!

Funny how so many teams “beat” our zone to the tune of 65 points.
It’s 3 o’clock my time, but I need a drink. Nerves can’t take it. One cube, two fingers of johnnie walker.
I just need us to take their candy and run away with it...I can't take another down to the wire game.. Nerves getting the best of me right now, I was okay during the first half!
Go for it. Most happy hours on the West coast start at 3:30.
7 pts and 3 rebounds combined from Carter and Bagley plus the poor 3 pt shooting and we're up 3. I still like our chances. We just need one of our Bigs to go off and hit a few 3's, then we will win this thing!
My stomachs a knot and I'm slightly shaking. Please win this
Had to hit mute on the game after Raftery's comment about Kansas "decimating" Duke's defense. Sheeesh, what game was he watching. They've had to work for everything they've gotten. Duke hits their open 3's and this is a double digit lead.
One thing that needs to happen is MBIII needs to start playing ball. He's letting a guy half his size box him out successfully every time. He's also gone back to playing D like he started the game with 3 fouls. Need him to be tougher on both ends and Duke wins this by 10+.

We are where we need to be. This doesn't seem to be a shooter's arena. That is apparent from the way both teams are shooting. We need to keep getting to the basket, that seems to ne working well.
Hope for a great second half. A repeat of the first half will be more than enough.

Ya'll mother f#$%&ers need to stop talking behind student athlete's backs.
