[DukeRulesBasketball]

Oh well. It is what it is I suppose.

 

[VaBlueDevil33]

Where do you get effort from? Just shut up lol

Sorry truth hurts you so much...I'll do as I please...but thanks for your useless post

 

[DukeRulesBasketball]

I’m just happy to see Jalen playing again.

No your ignorance annoys me

I’m know vtech has hit layups but they aren’t missing jumpers either. 77% clip

Literally can’t miss!

 

[IFaZe]

Has absolutely nothing to do with “effort”.....🙄

 

[500HP_Devil]

Not great defense so far

 

[VaBlueDevil33]

No your ignorance annoys me

Get over it

 

[germantondevil]

Hard to miss layups and they are getting plenty! One thing consistent with OAD teams is they do not understand weak side help defense at all. None of the teams loaded with OADs have never been a juggernaut defensive team

 

[VaBlueDevil33]

Not great defense so far

Not even average defense....it's pitiful

I just don’t think we have the raw talent to power thru a game like this. We need to press and interrupt their flow. Mayhem. It would help if we would stop giving up layups too.

 

[DukeRulesBasketball]

Just glad to only be down 12. Allows us to hopefully make a run and close the gap.

 

[tripleb71]

Glad that half is over. Geez.

 

[skysdad]

No doubt what our biggest problem was. D OFC

 

[LONMUNU]

This team has gotta find something that works for them on defense.

 

[sheyduke]

Defense is bad and our energy is lacking bad

 

[Buzzooka Joe]

I didn’t get to see the first half but it sounds like defense is a big issue.. is it too early to say “zone”?

 

[LONMUNU]

We seem to get so few easy buckets. Have to earn everything.

 

[JohnstonCDevil]

At least we didn't let it get totally away from us. If we can have a strong start to the 2nd half and get back in it, we have a chance!!! GO DUKE!!!
OFC

 

[IFaZe]

It’s just blatant to me all it is is VA T is the better team...right now

 

[LONMUNU]

Lessgo!!!

 

[VaBlueDevil33]

Effort is a hell of a lot better so far this half

 

[germantondevil]

Playing better, this team plays better when they play that full court trap and keeps the ball moving

 

[DukeRulesBasketball]

Defense!!

 

[DukeRulesBasketball]

Look at Hurt!!

 

[kingbluedevil]

I like our scrappy guards

 

[VaBlueDevil33]

Moore brick....goldwire airball....neither should be shooting 3s

only one of the great slashers of all time

 

[DukeRulesBasketball]

Two bad possessions

 

[500HP_Devil]

Moore bad shot bad foul

 

[Shatterthesky22]

Well this team definitely has fight in it. Would be awesome to be able to keep Hurt next year.

 

[Buzzooka Joe]

Hurt gonna mess around and get drafted ahead of Jalen..

 

[Buzzooka Joe]

Well this team definitely has fight in it. Would be awesome to be able to keep Hurt next year.

The short stretch where he created his own shot to make the 3, then the step back Dirk shot, then the 3 in the corner.. all he has to do is put that on a highlight reel by itself and he’s a 1st round pick with his size.

 

[BOOGIEMAN1914]

Look at Baker!!!

Oh yeah he's gone but it would be nice.

 

[kingbluedevil]

Hurt for three!!

 

[DukeCE2006]

That’s weak sauce.
