***DUKE VS VIRGINIA TECH OFFICIAL GAMEDAY THREAD***

[dbav]

I love Jack and want to see him drain one. That said, I've got to think Baker or Reaper should get those minutes. Put them in those shooting positions and it could be a different game.

I've said it before, but Ellis is really growing on me as a color guy.

 

[crazyduke3]

Our defense just keeps breaking down...

 

[K-oach Q]

We need to be carful here....it’s about to get away from us....

 

[SoCal_Dukie3]

This is on K; poor rotation so far.

 

[HeLooks2MuchLikeDave]

I hate playing Javin and Bolden together

 

[Louisville Crazie]

Now cam is hurt... jeez

 

[K-oach Q]

This is on K; poor rotation so far.

Really really head scratching...

 

[Jnood]

Barely touched the guy.

 

[Duke1783]

Reddish now listed as “day to day”

 

[HeLooks2MuchLikeDave]

This has a feeling of going downhill right now

 

[LONMUNU]

Not sure why the lack of minutes for AOC?

 

[LetsGoDuke301]

All of the sudden we've gone pure dumb. What was Cam's intention there?

 

[chov1125]

Not getting enough easy hoops. Working tough for everything. Meanwhile we look out of sorts on every defensive possession. One pass and we have guys running frantically.

 

[Jnood]

Outlaw is taking people out!

 

[LetsGoDuke301]

Not sure why the lack of minutes for AOC?

He can make a 3. And obviously that is not what we need.

 

[SoCal_Dukie3]

Trying to see the positives here but I can’t find any outside of FT shooting. Two post players with an offensively challenged PG throwing to either side to a wing who fights to get open. It’s the same set every time.

 

[Louisville Crazie]

Would it help to get tre involved more in pick n roll rather than being a spot up shooter?

 

[crazyduke3]

Nothing can be easy... come on guys hang in there.

 

[Oriole Way]

Not sure why the lack of minutes for AOC?

K has no choice but to play AOC now. Hopefully Cam is ok.

 

[K-oach Q]

Just has a bad feeling because we can’t score....and these lineups K is running out have about as much chance of scoring as Jack White making his next three.....Either we bring in some shooters and space the floor or we are going down....

 

[LetsGoDuke83]

Never thought duke would struggle against a team like vt but here we are

 

[liltee506]

Maybe we should try zone

 

[LetsGoDuke301]

Never thought duke would struggle against a team like vt but here we are

Well, we have struggled against them pretty much since their entry to the ACC.

 

[Mpm277]

Never thought duke would struggle against a team like vt but here we are

They're a ranked team in the road in the ACC.

 

[Jnood]

All of the sudden we've gone pure dumb. What was Cam's intention there?

Probably, to not die!

 

[OldasdirtDevil]

We can still win this game, but so far Duke hasn't showed enough on offense or defense to think we can. We've got to get a spark from someone to get us a little momentum if we are going to have a chance to win this thing.

OFC

 

[PixelDevil]

Is anyone gonna make it out f this game healthy?

 

[Louisville Crazie]

Weak foul

 

[crazyduke3]

JACK what kind of stupid foul is that. How does Alex not get his minutes.

 

[LetsGoDuke83]

There breaking the press too easily

 

[LetsGoDuke301]

At least Baker is available if we need him. Wonder if we'll ever need him.

 

[K-oach Q]

Now we bring in shooters and we are going to press? White and AOC to slow laterally for the press to be effective....

 

[chov1125]

Just some pointless fouls early this half that will now show up in the bonus.

 

[chov1125]

Not a good press lineup, you have to put Jordan in for this plan.

 

[tclark6]

We’re only down 2 but I swear it feels like 10...

 

[OldasdirtDevil]

RJ fighting through his sickness.

OFC

 

[DukefanKY]

Trying to see the positives here but I can’t find any outside of FT shooting. Two post players with an offensively challenged PG throwing to either side to a wing who fights to get open. It’s the same set every time.

the positive I see is it looks like we are getting absolutely killed, and we are only down two. But my god it's way to laboring for every score.

 

[duhondukie]

Duke already 1 foul away from putting them in the double bonus

 

[K-oach Q]

Nothing K is doing tonight makes any sense...

 

[AlanInNJ]

Remember that time we were down 23 with 9 minutes left??

We got this.
