We should, just gotta calm down. Zion needs to get back to being Zion.
Zion and RJ 4 TO’s each in the first half. Value the basketball fellas - otherwise it’s your last game in a Duke uniform.
Ummm yes they are. Outright won the big ten and beat Michigan 3 times. They are a very good team.
K will fix this......we’ve done it like this all year it seems like
I would feel a lot better if I could get a patented @Showenuff all caps decree stating Duke is going to win this game.
Duke will rally and get Tre home not only to play in his home state, but for Debbie! Only seems right for that to be the outcome with both of her son's cutting down the nets. Gotta beleive!
Playing young and dumb. Looks like Zion is trying to get everyone involved. He may take over second half.
Yeah but Michigan got destroyed one recent game so they're not good either. /sarcasm
K really needs to remove White from the rotation. He kills us offensively. His defense is not worth it.
This is true. Except those who are freshman, of course.
Zion went out with foul number two and then we preceded to play the worst 5 minutes of basketball of the season.
It seems that if we can limit Winston, they will struggle. Easier said than done but we have to turn up the pressure on Winston and force the rest of them to beat us.
I dont get it! WHY WONT WE JUST THROW ZION IN THE POST? If not most of the time then at least sometimes:Every time we do this, good things happen. Someone please help me understand this.
We just need to keep ourselves in a position to win. We need to get them running and wear them out in the 2nd half. For the 1st time this season, we are feeling the pressure of youth.
Hang in there folks, don't hang up the phone yet!
Go Duke!

Have to get aggressive driving it to the hoop. Help defenders sitting on kick outs. Take care of the ball, every pass needs to be crisp and on the money. Also need to be strong with the ball and get to all 50/50 balls. This is going to come down to the small details we need to be much better at them.
There is literally five teams left..if you are not good you are not playing right now..Saying MSU isn’t good is just ignorant..they are very good.
The lottery pick players turned into freshmen. People keep saying MSU isn’t good and they may not be but they are very experienced in this environment and Duke showed the last 5 minutes they are very inexperienced
we love to shoot the 3..no idea why...plus we dont move or post the ball well so we struggle to get it to the post. It should be a requirement every possession
I think Goldwire must be hurt. As much as I have been calling for AOC to get more minutes, Goldwire suddenly getting 3 minutes last game made no sense after he had been a regular part of the rotation and providing great defense.
I’m not ready to lose these freshman... and I’m sure they aren’t ready to finish this season. We will find a way.
