***DUKE VS NORTH CAROLINA OFFICIAL GAMEDAY THREAD***

[DukeRulesBasketball]

Damn!

 

[chov1125]

We are completely lost, completely lost

 

[christophero]

Well that was...not ideal. We still have a chance to win. But we have to make 3s.

 

[LONMUNU]

Well that half just sucked. No other way to put it.

 

[duhondukie]

Trying to understand why we are guarding the ball at half court in a 2-3 zone

 

[FearTheBeard]

I cannot remember a worse FT shooting Duke team. Abysmal.

 

[Mpm277]

Crazy how good we can look while, at other times, how terrible we can look. Just crazy.

 

[IPSYCHOSIS]

I’d settle for a open shot on offense once in a half ... duval is killing us

 

[chov1125]

That was one of the most embarrassing halves of basketball that I can remember as a duke fan. There’s no other way to sugar coat it.

 

[krzyzewskiville]

Thank god there are two halves in the game of basketball. Because that one we got beat like a red-headed step child.

We look deplorable.

 

[WI#1Dukie22]

On a positive note.... these are the games we typically steal. But holy s that was sooooooooooooooo finggggggg baddddddd

 

[tclark6]

We waited all day for this....they better turn this crap around in the second half...ugh!

 

[dukesince91]

Worst offensive performance I can ever remember vs the Holes.
Can we change uniforms at halftime? Anyone have any hex powers?
Just don't know what to say. Damn, piss, wth?

 

[dukecorey]

This team just doesn’t have it. Not sure what happened, just no chemistry and leadership. It is what it is.

 

[HuffyJB]

How does this team have such difficulty scoring? That was absolutely brutal.

 

[sheyduke]

I’d settle for a open shot on offense once in a half ... duval is killing us

The team as a whole is killing the team

 

[pisgah101]

Bagley already counting his NBA money. We were playing really well before he "healed" time to bench him and go back to how we played without.

 

[Dahntay#1]

Crazy how good we can look while, at other times, how terrible we can look. Just crazy.

Unfortunately every team can say that. No consistency.

 

[IPSYCHOSIS]

It’s not gonna change unless a miracle smacks duval in the face

 

[BM16]

Free throw shooting the difference in the game.

Atrocious job at the foul line.

 

[DukefanKY]

Have we had a worse half from the floor and line than that one???

 

[Jnood]

You give up a wide open three at the buzzer?

 

[chov1125]

The pace needs to pick up. Our half court offense is just lost out there

 

[Dad2ze]

Bagley already counting his NBA money. We were playing really well before he "healed" time to bench him and go back to how we played without.

It can’t hurt

 

[Dahntay#1]

Never thought we would come out like this on senior night. Oh well. We have been in much worse situations than this and come back.

 

[IPSYCHOSIS]

U can blame FT shooting but that would just keep us close...it’s bad but so are we

 

[denverexpat]

I’d settle for a open shot on offense once in a half ... duval is killing us

Sorry but he was hardly out there....plenty of others should shoulder the blame in that half. Duval isnt one of them

 

[FearTheBeard]

They need a run the first four minutes. Try some high-low with Bagley. Move around a lot more on offense to get some open shots for Allen and Trent.

It’s not over. Not by a long shot.

 

[skysdad]

Not much I can say other than what we should be doing we're not doing any of it. Think we will score 50. OFC

 

[OldasdirtDevil]

A rough half to say the least. UNC is beating us in every phase. But I remember us being up by 12 at halftime in Chapel Hill. Just need to make some shots to get some mo and confidence.

OFC

 

[ioliva]

It’s not even our defense that is that bad. There’s no ball movement no drivers and Allen has been the worst I’ve ever seen offensively. Yes he leads us for points but his turnovers and shot selection have killed the team. I wish he’d drive it more. I don’t understand why he doesn’t play like a senior... and then on his senior night as well. I wanna see more of bolden. He looked tough out there and ready to go

 

[christophero]

Listen to me folks: we are winning this game!

 

[BigRedLar]

25-pt half just isn't gonna cut it. Boys playing men so far.

 

[BlueDaveil]

I’d honestly rather have this team trying to come back and stay aggressive in the second half instead of building up a lead and trying to protect it for 20 minutes. We can’t play any worse than we did the first half, I think we’ll turn it around.

 

[HeLooks2MuchLikeDave]

This is painful to watch. PAINFUL

 

[DukefanKY]

Free throw shooting the difference in the game.

Atrocious job at the foul line.

It's more than just free throw shooting.....they are shooting better than is from the floor, from 3, from the line, and have more rebounds.

 

[Whutadrag2]

Good news is we should be down double digits right now. We are okay.

You were saying...

 

[DukefanKY]

Oh......and more assists too

 

[HeLooks2MuchLikeDave]

I’d honestly rather have this team trying to come back and stay aggressive in the second half instead of building up a lead and trying to protect it for 20 minutes. We can’t play any worse than we did the first half, I think we’ll turn it around.

Yeah, I don’t trust this team with a lead less than 30 points

 

[Hehhheheh]

Can our bigs please show up one more time in Cameron. Jesus christ man
