***DUKE VS SYRACUSE NCAA TOURNAMENT SWEET 16 OFFICIAL GAMEDAY THREAD***
- Thread starter krzyzewskiville
- Start date
The wife and I slapped the den floor with them!!!
Good run there to close the half. That pass from AOC to Grayson was beautiful.
Gotta keep attacking Chukwu, I can’t remember the last game where he wasn’t in foul trouble. The longer the game pressure stays on them hopefully they revert back to their normal level of offensive efficiency.
- Good momentum going to second half. Tighten up on D a little. Control the boards and extend the lead early and keep it. Can't have a run by Syracuse. OFC
Chukwu fouled out in the game at Cameron. Without him, Cuse is not the same team.
OFC
We closed on a 10-0 run! Now we need to open the 2nd half on a 10-0 run. Don't even let the Orange think they have a chance. BURY THEM!!!

Like to see Cuse get a little deeper into foul trouble
Big first 8 minutes. If we come out and push this lead out they are dead but if we let them linger we are going to be on the edge of our seat. Let this go easy please
I would like to see Duke move Grayson around more to get him in those corner 3 situations.
Perry Ellis is his nephew.
I like the balanced scoring so far.....not just depending on Bags alone. Everybody getting in on it
Every point Every rebound. Every recovered loose ball means something in this game. We've got to hit the free those and get the defensive rebounds. No turn overs. We got to play smart basketball. This is the most important second half we will have played all year. OFC
One stat I really like. I have talked over and over about how in all but 2 of our losses we had 16 or more turnovers. Right now, we have 5, and they have 12.....this makes me happy!!
We are in a good place. Come out strong. Hammer down. Bagley with 12 and Grayson with 15 in the second half. Let’s cruise to the E8. We got this.
Alex played great except for the blown layup. I like our patience and if we can keep the turnovers to 5 or less in the 2nd half we will win!
Syracuse is going to be a dangerous team next year with a top 10 PF added to this roster. Never quite realized how young they are.
The team looks patient and in control. I suspect they'll eventually start taking control and getting good shots limiting turnovers.
Seems like the type of outfit he’s going to have to keep rocking every game for good luck if we win this.
