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

[IPSYCHOSIS]

Our offense is to predictable with a

Will you STFU about Duvall? Damn....you don't know shit about basketball and you've been on his ass for a month.....is he the reason nobody can hit a 3 or a wide open jumper. Good god dude. Lololololo

Because we’ve had so many wide open looks? lmao .do you watch? Obviously K thinks the same if u watch lmao. I know duval is horrible for the #1 pg prior and if you don’t see how he affects this team In huge ways !! You don’t know basketball.

Getting outplayed at home by our rival is embarrassing. This team continues to struggle at the free throw line. For the life of me I will never understand why some of the guys shoot this bad from the free throw line. Bags and Carter have got to go to the rim. These hook shots aren't working.

 

[ioliva]

You ever stopped and thought he's our only senior? The rest of the guys aren't living up to their hype. It's that simple. He's no point guard. Duval can't shoot, and our other one and dones are non factors. Keep blaming Allen if it makes you feel better. Our 2 stud bigs: 5 total points. 5. Against that front line? 5.
Once again, this is the worst ball movement Duke team I've seen in a while.

Yep I have. And what leadership has he brought tonight? Is he firing up those guys? Is he settling the guys down? Is he keeping the temperament calm? Even at the VERY beginning of the game he was awful. You’re right he’s the only senior there which means he has to step up. He’s making freshman level decisions out there. The freshman are flustered like freshman should be at times. He’s the guy who knows what it takes to get over bad play. He’s not showing them how to do it. Yeah freshman, regardless of how good they are, may suck sometimes because they’re young. That’s why hardened experience leaders are so valuable. But we didn’t have one that first half. And there was absolutely no reason for that

Bagley just seems to be staring off into outer space when rebounding. What happened to that beast mode mentality he had early on.

K turned the keys over to Allen to run the team. No one looking to pass to Bagley.

 

[PixelDevil]

We ****ing get it man, the rivalry has been close in the last 100 games. Jesus Christ man, every time.

 

[dukesince91]

We have to make a run and get the crazies going if we're going to win this game. We're just not playing with a lot of confidence. I was surprised to see Alex pass up that wide open shot on that one turnover.
Other duke teams would have fired away.

 

[IPSYCHOSIS]

Dude you really need to read scouting reports. Duval hasn’t overcome the one thing scouts were worried about him coming into college which was his ability to lead s team.

Errr wrong

 

[sheyduke]

worst half I’ve seen

 

[OldasdirtDevil]

Plenty of time to turn this around. Let's steal this one like they did us at Chapel Hill.

OFC

 

[FearTheBeard]

I gave my dog “Duke” a can of wet dog food as a treat during halftime. If he’s pleased he will give us a victory.

 

[kingbluedevil]

I agree with Bilas for a change

Who leads the team next year? there is no senior...or junior who has significant time....

Bolden and Tre. I'll take a Jones anyday

 

[Duke Blu]

Let’s go! Show some PRIDE!

 

[denverexpat]

Bolden and Tre. I'll take a Jones anyday

Bolden? A part time player...and Tre..someone coming in as a freshman. Hope they step up

So you're saying I think more like K than I do you? Thanks for the compliment dumbass

 

[DukeRulesBasketball]

Just when I think Duke is closing in a silly turnover takes place!

 

[wcu1113]

The team needs it #1 pg In the country to play at half of his potential

What’s funny is he will still go pro. It’s laughable.

 

[SWEc/o95]

We are going to be on the wrong end of a blow out I hate to say. Probably the most infuriating Duke team I've watched ever.

 

[kingbluedevil]

Both teams are too pumped up. First team that settles down wins

 

[Louisville Crazie]

UNC is doing everything they can to let Duke back in. Gotta capitalize

 

[chov1125]

We can harp on our bigs all day. But our offense can’t function until we start hitting some shots. Hitting 60% of our 3’s seems like a fantasy now

 

[PixelDevil]

Watching this game

 

[BlueDaveil]

Our body language is definitely different this half. Hasn’t resulted in anything good yet but I think if we play angry the whole second half we gonna win.

 

[Jnood]

I feel bad for the crazies, they got hypothermia for this shit!

 

[K-oach Q]

I thought this team needed Bagley to win...we don’t...we are worse with him...by a lot...

 

[denverexpat]

7.7% from 3....never thought i would see that from a Duke team....we used to live and die by it...now we just pray we can make one!

 

[dukiejay]

We are going to be on the wrong end of a blow out I hate to say.

Unfortunately, it kind of feels that way. I do think we’ll make a run or two, though.

 

[IPSYCHOSIS]

Not one of Coach Ks better coaching years either ... this team is bad unless their hot an opposing teams cold

You’re ridiculous he hasn’t even played much tonight.

 

[WI#1Dukie22]

Time is now.... the plays we need to make a run are there.... but we’ve pist our pants every damn time!

I had a bad feeling Grayson would struggle on sr night. He’s gonna have to get HOT NOW

 

[PixelDevil]

7.7% from 3....never thought i would see that from a Duke team....we used to live and die by it...now we just pray we can make one!

I guess we still die by it, we just never live by it.

 

[chov1125]

We just need 1 to go in. We are wound so incredibly tight right now

 

[DukeDenver]

Where’s that run? Cmon boys. Let’s wake up and take this. We need to just pass the ball more quickly. Share and get open.

 

[sheyduke]

UNC has this game if I’m K( which I’m not). I’d start thinking about my team. This is just beyond embarrassing and when a 6’11” forward/C don’t pass the ball off try’s to bring it up against a team that is playing good defense. You got problems and it’s March.

Sorry for your senior night Grayson but this is a high school team just Like Barry said it was a gym

 

[IPSYCHOSIS]

You’re ridiculous he hasn’t even played much tonight.

Why lmao he affects everything and everyone! Regardless if he’s not in the game!

 

[denverexpat]

This isnt a good UNC team which makes this even more painful

 

[tclark6]

Took me a while to get this. None of the young guys grew in the rivalry so this is just another game to them.

And many on this board call UNC the JV team...ugh!

 

[christophero]

The comeback begins....

 

[dukiejay]

I thought this team needed Bagley to win...we don’t...we are worse with him...by a lot...

That’s just being stupid and irrational. No major D1 team can be successful without guards who can shoot. We haven’t been able to hit a jumper in four games.

 

[wcu1113]

This isnt a good UNC team which makes this even more painful

Yeah but they’re a better TEAM than Duke.
