HECK YEAH JORDAN

 

[FearTheBeard]

Then enlighten us with your infinite wisdom.

RJ, Cam, Zion, and Tre care about Duke and do not have a foot out the door.

 

[LONMUNU]

We ain’t losing. Goldwire got a three. We can all go home.

 

[Smythe13]

JGold!!

 

[Duke1783]

We’ve found our Quinn Cook boys

 

[CRAZIE4LIFE]

Is that Goldwires Career high for a game?

 

[BM16]

Goldwire is going to be important going forward. Reddish also needs to close on that faster with help defense.

 

[Louisville Crazie]

Shahid is lighting us up. Hopefully we have an adjustment in the 2nd

 

[meisperplexed]

Holy Moses! JGold with the Tre.

 

[BM16]

RJ, Cam, Zion, and Tre care about Duke and do not have a foot out the door.

Cam plays like he's on another planet sometimes.

 

[FearTheBeard]

Jordan!

Not the terrible one that owns the Bobcats.

 

[LONMUNU]

Why do that when they're giving us open threes?

That made me laugh. I needed that.

 

[christophero]

Deep breath everyone. We got this. Virginia and MSU struggled.

 

[Bludvls1]

We could use a Slim Reaper sighting.

 

[SoCal_Dukie3]

Cam needs an MRI, he dove on the floor.

 

[OldasdirtDevil]

We're okay guys. Survive and advance is what it's all about. Duke will come out in the 2nd half and take care of business.

OFC

 

[dbav]

We could use a Slim Reaper sighting.

I agree. If they are going to make us shoot, put in our best shooter.

 

[Mpm277]

I have no doubt we win this game. But dang we just look entirely unimpressive for the talent we have at times.

 

[PixelDevil]

Jordan!

Not the terrible one that owns the Bobcats.

Get with the times, we haven't been the Bobcats since 2013. We're the Charlotte Ceilings

 

[sheyduke]

It’s a good thing we are playing defense or this could be worse?

It’s a 16 seed. There is nothing about this game that’s a positive out side of Goldwire hitting a three so far. Defense, yet NDST is still in this almost at the half. They have one player scoring right now and it’s still a four point game.

 

[crazyduke3]

Jordan is going to be such a helpful piece to our program. He’s only I always had my eye on. He showed his grit from a very early time. Hard worker.

 

[duhondukie]

We're okay guys. Survive and advance is what it's all about. Duke will come out in the 2nd half and take care of business.

OFC

I think we will be fine as well, but we will not be able to play like this Sunday or we will be done

 

[Buzzooka Joe]

Nah, I’m far more concerned with his coaching. He refuses to go deep in the bench for a potential spark plug.

I don’t get why he can’t throw AOC or Baker in for a couple minutes in a game like this.. this opponent isn’t going to exploit their defensive weaknesses.. and they can hit open 3’s.

 

[germantondevil]

Why hasn’t AOC gotten any burn. We need three point shots to fall to open up the lane. Teams are going to start packing the paint on Duke and dare them to shoot it

 

[retiredsoldier]

Lmbo at this board. Every game day thread it seems to be one guy you never see post here on a regular basic, come in with the some off the wall BS!

 

[LONMUNU]

It’s a 16 seed. There is nothing about this game that’s a positive out side of Goldwire hitting a three so far. Defense, yet NDST is still in this almost at the half. They have one player scoring right now and it’s still a four point game.

So it’s a bad thing we are playing defense? I’m confused.

 

[BM16]

Attack the zone like they attacked Syracuse.

 

[Bludvls1]

Well that was ugly.

 

[PixelDevil]

Mostly terrible first half.

 

[dbav]

Coach sounds under the weather.

 

[DukefanKY]

Now that was a display of championship basketball right there!!!

 

[retiredsoldier]

Deep breath everyone. We got this. Virginia and MSU struggled.

Now you know better than that! Duke is not allowed to struggle against anybody. Where have you been all this season lol. J/k in a way.

 

[Mpm277]

When you hurt yourself on a flop...

 

[Jnood]

He was trying to call, “game, blouses!”

 

[dbav]

Second half team. Let's get it.

 

[pisgah101]

This is garbage. K saying this team is very good. BS this team SUCKS and we’re playing like trash again. Spark a freaking fire sit cams A and play some guys that can score. We won’t have to worry abkut next weekend playing like this

 

[Louisville Crazie]

2nd half we attack the basket and roll.

 

[BM16]

So it’s a bad thing we are playing defense? I’m confused.

This game should not be in this close. Getting out rebounded by a smaller team is inexcusable. Settling for jump shots against at team you have a clear size advantage over is just DUMB basketball.

 

[SoCal_Dukie3]

Now you know better than that! Duke is not allowed to struggle against anybody. Where have you been all this season lol. J/k in a way.

My man, they look rough regardless of what other teams did. They can turn it on in the 2nd half, fortunately.

 

[crazyduke3]

I think this is how it’s always going to be. Some of the nice comfortable leads we should have we will not because we desperately cannot shoot the three, where if we were even a little better we could sieze control far more easily.
