Kenpom updates

[pisgah101]

I know some of us follow Kenpom so I think we need a running thread in our levels there as it’s been historically a good indicator of March success-

After our “bad D game” and all Saturday games we are sitting at

2 overall 7 on offense and 2 on defense

Auburn is still somehow 1 with 1 on offense and 17 on defense

Houston, Iowa state and Florida round out the top 5

The next closest ACC team is Pitt at 27 followed by Clemson at 29 and UNC at 30

Illinois will give us the opportunity for a nice win coming in at 12

Beating Illinois would sure help in getting a one seed.

I wish the committee valued Kenpom over Net but they value the sh*t out of the Net rankings.

Agree. We are 2 in net as well though so hopefully we can stay there

Kenpom is the best. The most accurate indicator of who the top teams are.

Probably SOS

I'm guessing our defensive metrics drop a bit with Brown out. But at the same time our offense seems to be climbing.

Would be willing to bet we are like 4 Offense 4 Defense by mid to end of February, which is pretty amazing.

We need a Barbiepom too.

Groan! 🤣

You sound like dattier

I just like dad jokes.

Update-

We are still 2 overall but up to 4 on offense and 2 on defense. Auburn is still number one with number 1 in offense but 15 in D. Not exactly sure how we aren’t ahead of them based off that 🤷🏻‍♂️

As long as Duke continues to improve on both ends of the court everything will sort itself out in the ncaa tournament

T5 in both O and D is amazing! I'd love to see them get to #1 in both. Yes, I'm a greedy MF'er!

 

[pisgah101]

After Wednesday night games we have went up to 3 on offense 🔥

 

[pisgah101]

After Friday games we are at 2 and 2 for O and D… a good showing today and we could hit that 1,1

How freaking cool would that be!

 

[bleediteveryday30]

If I'm not mistaken, I believe the '02 Duke team is the only one to be 1&1 on KenPom. So that would be pretty cool. Obviously, let's hope things end better for this team than the '02 group.

Yep that’s the only time I can find unless someone hit it momentarily

 

[christophero]

I'm following Beatillinoispom. Cause that's what we need for a 1 seed.

 

[pisgah101]

Up to 1 in Kenpom but slide back to 3 on offense

 

[pisgah101]

Down to 3 overall after today.. 7 on offense and 3 on defense

 

[JimboSlice00]

Yeah figured we would drop slightly after these last two wars. Winning is winning though!

 

[The_Only_Blue]

Once we get Maliq back we'll be that much better

 

[bullcity gamer]

Duke is still the only team in the country ranked in the Top 5 in Both Defensive and Offensive Efficiency after last night’s games

 

[bullcity gamer]

At the end of the regular season Duke would have played a schedule that should have them ready for any team they will face in the NCAA Tournament:

Kentucky & Auburn (SEC high octane teams)
Kansas (Veteran laden and defensive sound team)
Arizona (Class of The Big 12 along with Houston)
Illinois (Strong Defensive Team from the Big10 and can really score)
Louisville (Gritty ACC Team, one of the hotter teams in the country)
Clemson (Experienced/Physical Team with sound coaching)
George Mason (Experienced Mid Major winning their conference at the moment)

Hope Duke faces any combination of Wake Forest/Clemson/Louisville in ACC Tournament Play

Duke will be Prepared for the NCAA Tournament

Thank you for posting. I meant to update today! 5 on O and 4 on D after Saturday is over. Pretty dang good
