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

[DukeSky85]

Time to put this one away now!

 

[dukehokie]

I don’t get why we don’t easiky outrebound this team

A lot of long rebounds. Two teams shooting a bunch of jumpers. That battle is between guards, not bigs. Tech is used to getting out rebounded so they know how to play the long rebound game.

 

[Fourteen44]

Is this the best full team game we’ve seen from Duke in some time?

 

[Friction.]

Moore is extremely effective. Box score says that's 9 TO's on Nolley

 

[Mpm277]

Tre has such a nice midrange.

 

[dukehokie]

K has done really well tonight with adjustments.

Brilliant decision quite honestly to sit Vernon and Matt down since they were matchup nightmares on the defensive end.

 

[DukeRulesBasketball]

I mean it looked like he intentionally shoved Wendell!

 

[DukeRulesBasketball]

Slim Reaper!

 

[CRAZIE4LIFE]

At a boy Alex

 

[Hurley22]

Alex!!!!!! Finally!!

 

[DukeSky85]

Yes AOC!

 

[Mac9192]

For those that have criticized Alex, that’s why you don’t stop shooting the damn ball!!!!

 

[Smythe13]

AOC!!

 

[DukeRulesBasketball]

Man it feels good to come in here and get a win! It’s been a while

 

[LetsGoDuke83]

Alexxxxx there you go buddy!!!!

 

[CRAZIE4LIFE]

For those that have criticized Alex, that’s why you don’t stop shooting the damn ball!!!!

Yep yep and yep

 

[DukeSky85]

What a defensive lock down this half

 

[Mpm277]

God please let this start a new trajectory for AOC.

 

[Smythe13]

This team is growing. They have responded in the second half.

 

[K-oach Q]

Man what a change from the first 22 minutes and the last 18

 

[Duke1783]

Love this team!

 

[YNWA196]

We've found our feet again.

 

[JohnstonCDevil]

I believe Alex will go on a big roll now. All he needed was to see the ball go in!!!!

Really nice half. Going small really worked and this team played with a lot of composure. Was really worried how it started that they were going to get blown out in the first half. They settled down and got things together in the second half.

 

[FearTheBeard]

Let AOC keep shooting. Give him some confidence going forward.

 

[chov1125]

OK Alex. I will tip my cap and hope this breaks the slump. My biggest concern was my opinion that the margin for error tonight would be too small. But I’ll take it.

 

[Mpm277]

This team is growing. They have responded in the second half.

Not that I disagree with you, but K actually broke a habit in not sticking with his standard 6 man rotation.

 

[Fourteen44]

Yep yep and yep

Guys, come on, it’s all good now as Duke is comfortably in the lead

 

[K-oach Q]

My neighbor is 80...he’s a great great guy and a die hard VT fan. I’m really happy they are not going to win so when I see him I don’t have to listen to him..ha!

 

[retiredsoldier]

Let's Go Duke!!!!!

 

[retiredsoldier]

These boys bad!!!!!

 

[DukeSky85]

Tre’s mid range is beautiful

 

[retiredsoldier]

Somebody better tell Va Tech there's a lot of time left so they may want to temper all the jumping around after a made shot. Wait to Duke get adjusted to what they are doing with the double and triple-teaming of Vern.

[DukeSky85]

Goldy has really come around this year

 

[Mpm277]

Jordan having a really nice game.

 

[Hurley22]
