***DUKE VS SOUTH CAROLINA NCAA 2ND RD OFFICIAL GAMEDAY THREAD***

[K-oach Q]

We where not playing bad defensively, we where turning the ball over and running offense like crap...

Now we are on our heels defensively too..and can't make any plays in a zone...much less rebound...

 

[DukeRulesBasketball]

Kennard with four fouls. Not liking this!

 

[chov1125]

Just hang in there, the misses will come. Can't give up rebounds when they do

 

[wcu1113]

That's why you have to put them away in the first half. Can't let an inferior team think they have a shot, especially when they're playing at home.

 

[DFerryFan]

Did Jefferson breathe too hard on that guy to get that foul call?

 

[Jnood]

We are going to foul everyone out

 

[500HP_Devil]

Dig down guys FIND A WAY.

 

[dukecorey]

Refs have put us in foul trouble and turned Duke tentative. They do play a roll in the game. Yeah Duke needs to play better but I find it funny the more physical team has less fouls. They kept them in the game the first half.

 

[TRU CANE]

I don't know why when we foul we let them get the ball up. If you going to foul then FOUL!

 

[Dad2ze]

The fouls are what they are. You cant turn the ball over 10 more times than the other team and Blane it on the refs

Duke Fouls - 16
SC Fouls - 14

Just saying

 

[SWEc/o95]

Apparently we can't play zone without fouling either

 

[BM16]

Put Giles and Jefferson in and feed them in the low post. Getting called for touch fouls for nothing on defense. Return the favor.

 

[youngman42]

We are just weak and passive physically. Harry Giles is getting crushed on the. Locks from a physical standpoint. And with Kennard out with 4 fouls.

Big trouble.

 

[gottagonow]

At this point of the game we can't stop them from scoring and we should have known their poor shooting wouldn't last.

 

[pisgah101]

We aren't going to have a team left after this one

 

[DukeDenver]

At this point of the game we can't stop them from scoring and we should have known their poor shooting wouldn't last.

Felder must be guarded. Thornwell too.

 

[K-oach Q]

Well then they will continue to get wide open three after wide open three...the middle will continue Ron be open...and we won't rebound..

It's a good change of pace...not something we should be in for a long time...

 

[IPSYCHOSIS]

Why do we look so nervous Matt jones is back to the ugliest shot in the game..they had a great gameplan ...we lacked one

 

[germantondevil]

This is nothing more than what we've seen in Duke this year. They can be a bad team defensively.

 

[SoCal Dukie]

Amile only big in. Trying to get back in it with 3's. That's it.

 

[wcu1113]

Pathetic effort tonight.

 

[TRU CANE]

Smh it's all F'ed up now let's go fight!!!!

 

[HuffyJB]

Jesus Christ they can't miss. They are like 14-17 this half.

 

[germantondevil]

And Matt for most of the year is back can't hit nothing

 

[DukeCE2006]

Sigh

 

[youngman42]

Please don't let Matt Jones shoot.

 

[DFerryFan]

LOL at the Cheaters fans there. They hate Duke more than they like the Tarhole.

 

[duke198025]

I get tired if losing to the lower seeds. Disappointed

 

[BlueDevils725]

Was a fun run boys.

 

[chov1125]

The defense that has put us behind at times all year is rearing its ugly head

 

[MyDudeG]

Our season depends on these next few minutes. We come out firing or we go home.

 

[K-oach Q]

I think this is over...we screwed the pooch with all the turnovers...

Will lose by double digits...not making runs on this defensive team...

 

[IPSYCHOSIS]

Lack of rebounding omg an over the back. Foul??????!!!!! Lol refs are absolutely unbelievable they literally cost us this game I don't care what anybody says ..if we lose of course

 

[germantondevil]

We suck on defense yet another game allowing one of the worst offenses shoot well over 50%

 

[DukeDenver]

Are you serious with this negativity?

 

[Showenuff]

Wheels comin off. We need a run soon.

 

[sheyduke]

South Carolina has all the heart and fight right now and we can't handle the ball or make a shot.

 

[TRU CANE]

That's 6 team fouls on them. Be smart now get to the line slow this game down

 

[MyDudeG]

It's not over. Enough with all that.

 

[CRAZIE4LIFE]

It's almost funny
