We should get year 3 out of Mitchell. Doesn't mean we will; but we should. He would really help a young team next year. Work on your shot all summer.
I'd say the end of Jan or the beginning of Feb is the worst case.Proctor is still on crutches. No way he's back for Baylor

Back for Baylor would be awesome. I was watching him during time outs and he is still not putting weight on it. Hopefully those 19 year old ankles heal quick.Not necessarily - to get a truly speedy recovery you go non-weight hearing as long as you can while doing anti-gravity training. I won’t be shocked if he’s back for Baylor. Def not Tuesday though.
My god, you're an ass dude.“I'd say the end of Jan or the beginning of Feb is the worst case.”
It’s an ankle sprain, not a compound fracture lol
He was All-Windex on the glass. Thankfully, we didn’t need his O today.Flip hasn't scored much, but he's had 12 boards so far. Again, playing a position he's shouldn't be.
I should've said he was terrible on offense. But his D and rebounding was solid. He missed bunnies; he makes a few more of those open threes that didn't go down today.He was All-Windex on the glass. Thankfully, we didn’t need his O today.
And they were good shots, too. None that I can think of that we shouldn't have taken.We were 10 of 18 from 3 today. When we make 3's at a good rate, we are a different team.
Redshirt Reeves now...Ugh Reeves is out with a bad ankle? Is that the same injury as before? Guy can't stay healthy.
Sounds like Flip turned his ankle.
I think Blakes has earned a green light if he’s open.And they were good shots, too. None that I can think of that we shouldn't have taken.
And you’re hyper-sensitive.My god, you're an ass dude.
I believe it’s too late?Redshirt Reeves now...
I never jumped off. I always thought he deserved more minutes than what he gets. I would point out his effort to the other players and give him some of Foster and McCain’s minutes just to light a fire. Foster was MIA most of the game today.A win is a win. Outlier of a game for Blake's. Hopefully no one jumps on his bandwagon after this one game
Foster has been solid last two games and I would disagree about giving his minutes away. Blakes has shown flashes like this from time to time, bit Foster has a higher ceiling. In this last two games, he's played 66 minutes with 2 total turnovers.I never jumped off. I always thought he deserved more minutes than what he gets.

Blakes played better today. Foster didn’t have the ball in his hands as much as you would think. I think he and McCain should still be able to reach their ceiling with a few less minutes a game.Foster has been solid last two games and I would disagree about giving his minutes away.

He's earned his minutes.
Foster absolutely had the ball in his hands often today, as he did at GT.Blakes played better today. Foster didn’t have the ball in his hands as much as you would think. I think he and McCain should still be able to reach their ceiling with a few less minutes a game.
I can’t imagine him going pro, unless he’s fluent in another language or content to play in the G League. I could, however, see him transfer if he senses our incoming class is going to leapfrog him.We should get year 3 out of Mitchell. Doesn't mean we will; but we should.

If it’s a medical redshirt, here are the rules:I believe it’s too late?
Thank you.If it’s a medical redshirt, here are the rules:
Otherwise, the redshirt falls within the “must play your 4 years in 5 years” rule, in which case any season you have played even once counts as a complete year. Obviously the COVID exemption doesn’t apply in Reeves’ case.
- The athlete’s injury had to happen within the first half of the season, and they couldn’t have participated in more than 30% of the team’s games that season.
- The injury must be verified with documentation and must be deemed “season-ending.”
Redshirt young man. Whether you stay at Duke or not.Thank you.
I would think the 30% rule would allow him to redshirt…..
It's definitely the personality of our players. Roach, Proctor and our Freshmen are aggressive, but that's pretty much it. We need others to step it up.I didn’t take much from the game outside the fact Duke played Charlotte . My take is ,
Flip can not play through double teams and they will continue to double him . It wasn’t that he was not trying on offense they just contained him on defense.
I will continue not to hop on the McCain band wagon until he plays to his potential in big games . More interested if he can have the same outcome against Baylor.
Foster is still learning his role and it shows . Is he the point when he’s on the floor with Roach or is he the combo guard ?
Stewart needs to adapt quicker he has moments but he’s not ready yet and Powers is improving in the defensive end but no one still looks for him when Duke goes iso .
Mitchell for some reason can’t see his strength is simply attacking the basket on offense and plays timid . Don’t know if he’s worried about getting injured or what .
This team will make the tourney but won’t contend . There are too many holes that simply can’t be answered. Teams will continue to double Flip and sag off Duke shooters. When Charlotte got with in 11 it looked like the team simply regressed when Charlotte went on their 11-0 run . You simply can’t let many teams do that and Charlotte’s main big went out the game .
I would red shirt and save the year .Redshirt young man. Whether you stay at Duke or not.
And that is the point. We were playing Charlotte, not Kansas. So we should have had gaudy numbers. The 11-0 run was inexcusable and evidenced many of the same weaknesses that resulted in losses to powerhouse GT and Ark. Baylor's quickness is going to be a huge problem for us in getting our shooters open. With the problems we have in the paint, I agree that we will have a tough time competing in the tourney.
