Yeah but UNC always destroys teams like NC State (and Clemson). We can't look at these teams that UNC beats badly every single season and then use our games against them as an indicator. We've had seasons where we got beat by teams that UNC beat badly and still did well that year overall (and at times beat UNC, too).NCST lost to Heels by 57, they are not a good team. Can't sugarcoat home losses.
You're starting to sound like your avatar. Not everything can be explained by a hard-line stance. Things don't have to be black and white.It's ok when the blame can clearly be placed on someone's shoulders and everyone except like 2 will admit it

Yeah I'm one of the 2. Heck everyone was trashing Bolden just two games ago and Jones the whole season. Who's it gonna be the next game we lose? I always thought you won with five players and not one. I must have not been coached too good growing up.It's ok when the blame can clearly be placed on someone's shoulders and everyone except like 2 will admit it
Serious question. If a player did stink and was worthless to a Duke team, do you think you would actually admit it?That's not what you're doing, though. Yes, Tatum stunk down the stretch. But he doesn't stink and he's not worthless for this team. You and anyone else who thinks that is just stupid.
Some of you are so reactionary and say such ridiculous things. There's just no grasp on reality whatsoever.
Maybe not over but getting pretty darn close to it

Lol.Tatum isn't the reason we're losing. Capel isn't the reason. Neither are the injuries. There's a lot of the them....but the most obvious is that this team just doesn't mesh well together.
Tonight Tatum was really bad down the stretch. But the moves that got him those shots were outstanding....he just didn't finish. If he makes those first two we probably win by 10.
Tatum is killing this team - directly with his terrible play and indirectly by getting a pass while being so selfish.You're starting to sound like your avatar. Not everything can be explained by a hard-line stance. Things don't have to be black and white.

No he wouldn't. Some on here believe if you trash a player you dont support your team but it's not true. That's fine they believe that but they must go through blindly supporting anything and that's a sad thing. And he is trash and anyone can see that. Can he turn it around? Yes he can Matt and bolden we're both trash for the majority of the season now they aren't though. And dukedenver everything is black and white and I'll take sounding like him as a YUGE compliment. And I guess a lot of us are stupid Jay a lot of us
Completely agree OAD! It is what it is! Onto the next one. I still love my Blue Devils no matter what. The only thing that I will say is that it stinks to play one good half of basketball, then flatten another half and squander away a lead and that's kind of been my pet peeve with Duke. I remember saying it last year, that there were so many times Duke was up then blew the lead and either lost or had to fight to win. The ND game last year in the ACC tournament is a perfect example! That is the most frustrating and u can't just pin that on one player. It takes a team effort to win and takes a team effort to lose.Yep. We're all frustrated, but being a fan is accepting that the sun doesn't always shine on the same dog's azz all the time (same thing as life). Don't have to like it, but have to learn to put it in perspective.
OFC
Some fans on this board are blindly loyal. Its admirable at some level but I just am not built that way. You have to be able to call a spade a spade.No he wouldn't.

You're not stupid, but you just can't comprehend anything without it specifically being someone's fault. This 'team' just isn't very good. That's the reality. It's not one person.
I'll ask this....would you trash your own kid like that? If not, then why do it to someone else's? You can trash all you want....that's fine. But you look stupid doing it.
Maybe a little crazy talk but a wide open drive x2 and you miss!?!? I mean if it was contested maybe but good grief. If he had t played terrible in the past it wouldn't be that bad. I realize I may eat my words when he drains the 3 to win it against UNC in CH but for now, he's just terrible.OK, this is crazy talk. You're upset, but c'mon. Reel it in. He's NBA bound and will eventually be pretty good. River and Jabari had similar performances, and they're drawing big checks still. It isn't good news for us however.
Some of you all really need to take a step back

Realizing that some fans will defend any and every player on this team even if we were to go 0-30 gave me a new perspective. Thats just how some people are.
Laura Keeley's epic twitter takedown of Tatum:That's not what you're doing, though. Yes, Tatum stunk down the stretch. But he doesn't stink and he's not worthless for this team. You and anyone else who thinks that is just stupid.
I'd kill for Tyler Thornton right now.Dukes issue is point guard. Too much experimenting. Got to have guard play in the dance. Some teams mesh but this team is lost. Point guard Point guard Point guard!
You need to look up "epic"
Hi, I am excited to actually post. I have been following for years, but finally decided to put in my two cents. I may get killed for stating what has already been said a couple different times, but this team is much, much better w/Grayson coming off the bench and used in situational bursts. We simply cannot have him and Luke in the game at the same time. I personally feel that Luke is more of an offensive threat than Grayson and many have called for Tatum's head, but I think a few people are missing the chemistry issues when Grayson is on the floor.
I feel as if I'm one of those fans that people think support everything K does or that every player is off limits, but I felt like Grayson sucked tonight. That said, it ain't all on one player. Our defense or lack of is the biggest problem.

You have to remember OADs are a gamble just a few seasons ago Kentucky had the greatest class ever started ranked 1 and I believe they won the NIT title that year. Sometimes all that talent does not gel. Look at the talent UK and Duke have has since all these OADs started and they have only 2 titles between the both.
