Official game day thread- Duke vs Houston SWEET 16

[jamsession2]

Ryan needs to play the entire game...

 

[ioliva]

Young’s playing tough but those 2 missed fts were brutal gotta be better than that

 

[JimboSlice00]

We are okay. Have to hit open shots. We are okay

 

[denverexpat]

there's letting them play and then theres letting them play....this is beyond just physical.

 

[bleediteveryday30]

Yeah, you can't adjust to be punched, slapped, elbowed, and hit constantly. Dirty ****ing team.

 

[christophero]

The good news is Houston is not an elite scoring team. Keep it close boys.

 

[tclark6]

Man, this is a dirty group. I expect nothing less from a Kelvin Sampson team.

I haven’t seen any dirty plays, they’re physical and came to play!

 

[The_Only_Blue]

We knew they were going to muck it up but my God the refs are horrendous. We gotta start making 3's or drive and get fouled like A&M

 

[springsportster]

They are fouling us down low every time. The ref's call 1/4 of the fouls

 

[bleediteveryday30]

I'd say they're calling 1/8 of the fouls.

 

[christophero]

This is a Ryan Young game. He needs to play well and avoid fouls. I feel like we've settled in.

 

[bleediteveryday30]

Team is showing fight. We might lose. But at least we are fighting.

 

[Jjallen]

Roach is hurting us right now

 

[Duke Blu]

They are shutting us down

 

[christophero]

If Roach is injured he needs to recognize that and distribute.

 

[jamsession2]

Yeah, you can't adjust to be punched, slapped, elbowed, and hit constantly. Dirty ****ing team.

It's basketball. We gotta play the same.

 

[ioliva]

O cuts. Just floating around the perimeter

 

[Jnood]

How that **** is that not a ****ing foul?!

 

[dukeblue77]

Need Flip..

 

[denverexpat]

no one can drive the bucket..thats not good

 

[bleediteveryday30]

It's basketball. We gotta play the same.

It's street ball. Not basketball.

 

[christophero]

It's a ****show. Just keep it close, 5 or under at the half.

 

[tclark6]

We’re extremely lucky Houston went cold because this could be really bad right now! Buckle up!

 

[ioliva]

Why doesn’t Jon set someone up in the center? Too much perimeter passing

 

[Duke Blu]

I remember when folk used to call us dirty, Leattner was as dirty and nasty as they come and i miss it

 

[K-oach Q]

We had our chance and didn’t do anything. We are about to get beat like a drum now….

 

[Duke Blu]

Yup lets start knocking people down

 

[tclark6]

We had our chance and didn’t do anything. We are about to get beat like a drum now….

😂😂😂

 

[bleudevils2015]

Just starting mauling these sacks of shit.

 

[springsportster]

We're shooting like sh*t

 

[denverexpat]

Our young guards cant match the pressure they are under...not one drive to the rim so far...even our shots at the outside are very contested...I dont see where we score consistently

 

[bleediteveryday30]

Maybe we should start beating the shit out of them.

 

[springsportster]

Drive to the basket every time and draw fouls. Win by attrition

 

[Duke Blu]

Our young guards cant match the pressure they are under...not one drive to the rim so far...even our shots at the outside are very contested...I dont see where we score consistently

Feed Flip. They double every time. Lots you can do off that

 

[christophero]

Just keep it close. 18-15.

 

[SWEc/o95]

Remind you of a certain game last year about this time? They better step up, quit turning the ball over and start hitting some shots. 10 points with 6 minutes to go in the half is ridiculous.

 

[jamsession2]

It's street ball. Not basketball.

Gotta Adjust

 

[dukesince91]

This game is made for Blake’s and Young. Let ‘em use their 10 fouls.

 

[denverexpat]

Drive to the basket every time and draw fouls. Win by attrition

A & M did that and shot 40+ FTs

 

[jamsession2]

Drive to the basket every time and draw fouls. Win by attrition

Yes, these are games Blake, Stewart and Young must play.
