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

Gotta move on got our butts beat in the second half. We got abused!
 
Bilas keeps talking about depth (in sense he's right but for the wrong reason) - it's not the 8 scholarship players. It's that K is only using 6. At least he should have had Plumlee in for 5 minutes in the 2nd half.

This is such an ugly game. Going to take a near miraculous turnaround in quality of play to win this game.

Not impressed with K's coaching in this game, to be honest. Needed to employ the depth some in 2nd half.
 
Has a team ever given up more offensive rebounds then they got defensive rebounds?

I'm pretty sure if Okafor wouldn't have sprained his ankle K would've tried to play him 50 minutes.
 
We have played poorly tonight UNC wanted it more and we r tired. Bench play is going to kill us down the stretch

Why have we not run Plumlee with Okafor. It worked great one time and have not went back to it since
 
No effort. Jus sick absolutely sick. How do we look so amazing half a game then come back like this.. Games like this bring back those losing in the 1st weekend thoughts.
 
One of coach ks worst games ever. Okafor has been absolutely awful and has he sat out? No. Carolina has this game on strict effort. Nothing more nothing less
 
I agree guys are tired and led to lots of mental mistakes and carelessness. No reason for Okafor to play this many minutes, not good use of the bench tonight.
 
I don't think any team wanted it any more than the other. The Holes made more plays and weren't gassed at the end.
 
I still have faith! Hit these FTs and give it your all the last 2 mins!
 
Would somebody die if Grayson got some minutes? I feel like that might be the case.

Apparently somebody would die if we used zone defense as well. sheesh.
 
We suck at free throws people have to stop expecting us to make them unless it's Quinn, tyus or Allen.

I agree. No Plumlee at all in the 2nd half with UNC rebounding like crazy. And, no 'twin-towers' and no zone. Therefore, UNC has 56 points in the paint. Force them to shoot the three.

Duke got tired. K did not do anything about it.

I hate to say it - it's just not a very in game coaching job by K. He did not adjust to the UNC play at all.
 
I would have preferred that, that didn't happen like that!
 
Not only careless - but why do you have Tyus (the shortest player on the court) passing it in down low and UNC puts a tall player on him. Smart play by Roy. Not smart by K.
 
I'm with iolovia one of the worst coaches games I've seen. Same crap all the second half. Clearly ain't working CHANGE
 
8 scholarship players is just bad managing of a team.
Duke has plenty of money . No need to save money on scholarships. Cannot expect to be a top team without more depth.
Should have 12-13 every year.
Needed another power forward and small forward. A developed Semi would fill one spot but still needed another forward.
If you do not have the horses why run with UNC especially after JO got injured ?
This game reminds me of the Arizona and Villanova games when Duke players got run into the ground.
Makes no sense not to play more zone versus UNC.
Say what you want but Ole Roy had the last laugh tonight.
At least Dean Smith will be smiling down.
Got to edit this post. I cannot believe they came back. Kind of reminded me of a Dean Smith comeback.
