***DUKE VS TROY NCAA 2ND RD OFFICIAL GAMEDAY THREAD***

[Mpm277]

Amile's footwork is so good

 

[SoCal Dukie]

Grayson with a smooth J...

 

[germantondevil]

I really wish Duke would step up their defense. Everybody shoots better than 50% against them. Troy is already over that

 

[Mpm277]

We need to guard the three better

 

[VaBlueDevil33]

Put this one away by halftome please...just once please

 

[VaBlueDevil33]

How many offensive boards do they have already....sheesh

 

[wcu1113]

Defense........again.

 

[SoCal Dukie]

They are getting manhandled in the paint, and falling in love with the 3. Wake up guys!

 

[germantondevil]

Put this one away by halftome please...just once please

there defense is not designed to put teams away. They allow to many easy baskets

 

[Mpm277]

These camera angles are infuriating.

 

[VaBlueDevil33]

there defense is not designed to put teams away. They allow to many easy baskets

I know but come on it troy....we should be able to put them away I would think

And I don't think our defense is designed that way...it's just we are slow defensively in a few positions that make it that way

 

[MyDudeG]

Man, they've been going to town on Harry. Here's a Vrank sighting.

 

[wcu1113]

These guys need their as*es chewed out. Pathetic defense.

 

[VaBlueDevil33]

Vrank can't do any worse than Harry tonight

 

[DukeSky85]

Troy isn't going to roll over and die.. we gotta throttle this

 

[Guy Smiley]

Ugh. We should be up by at least 15 on this team.

 

[pisgah101]

What is this horse piss?!

 

[Mpm277]

Can Troy like... Chill out?

 

[TRU CANE]

They are going to obviously keep attacking vrank or Harry may have to hide them in a zone

 

[dukecorey]

Getting killed on the boards, how?? Step it up guys

 

[germantondevil]

I know but come on it troy....we should be able to put them away I would think

And I don't think our defense is designed that way...it's just we are slow defensively in a few positions that make it that way

Man, they've been going to town on Harry. Here's a Vrank sighting.

you are right,,,designed is not the right word. They are just not a good vintage Duke Defense.

 

[Dad2ze]

OMG!!!! Vrank is in!!!!!!!

 

[DukeRulesBasketball]

Vrank sighting

 

[VaBlueDevil33]

Vrank coming in should tell everyone all they need to know about bolden

 

[Mpm277]

Omg Vrank giving me Zoubek vibes

 

[Dukesince90]

I like Vrank's game. Does the little stuff and plays within himself.

 

[gottagonow]

This Troy bunch can shoot the 3 ball well enough to make me a little nervous.

 

[pisgah101]

I like Vrank. And what is up with bolden? Is he hurt or made coach mad?

 

[OldasdirtDevil]

Great finish at the end for Duke!

OFC

 

[MyDudeG]

Vrank gave us some very good minutes to end the half. He played completely in control and was in good defensive positioning throughout. That is a big body to throw out there!

 

[JohnstonCDevil]

Grayson is hot tonight! We just need to tighten up our defense in the 2nd half!

OFC

 

[Guy Smiley]

Vrank always seems to give us something positive. He plays within himself. Way to go!

 

[dukiejay]

I like Vrank. And what is up with bolden? Is he hurt or made coach mad?

I didn't even see him on the bench. Anyone else?

 

[wcu1113]

I like Vrank. And what is up with bolden? Is he hurt or made coach mad?

He was sitting at the end of the bench by the trainers. Makes me wonder.

 

[OldasdirtDevil]

I think Vrank has always seemed to look pretty good in the very limited minutes I've seen him. He's definitely a little different look for us.

OFC

 

[dukiejay]

He was sitting at the end of the bench by the trainers. Makes me wonder.

Gotcha...I had just posted that I didn't even see him. I wonder what's up? Oh well, loved the minutes Vrank gave us at the end of the half.

 

[wcu1113]

Gotcha...I had just posted that I didn't even see him. I wonder what's up? Oh well, loved the minutes Vrank gave us at the end of the half.

Remember how vital Zoubek was during the 2010 run? Vrank is no Z, but I'm just sayin.

 

[VaBlueDevil33]

We have to extend the lead to start the half or we may be in another nail biter with a team we should run off the floor

 

[SoCal Dukie]

I heard Bolden is sick TIFWIW. Hope that's all it is.

 

[pisgah101]

Yeah at the very end next to the trainer.. very weird idk lol
