⏰ 7:00

Not a lot to say about this one as I’m out of town and it’s a tune up game where we are currently a 33.5 point favorite!

Duke- 107
IC-52

 

[sheyduke]

Duke and the entire bench plays a lot of minutes .

 

[hart2chesson]

Glorified scrimmage game. Hopefully a guy like Darren Harris(really our only freshman of note not in rotation), gets serious burn at guard. Duke 92-58.

OFC

 

[NCirishman]

Easy win like 94-57

Kon shoots better, Mal blocks a shot.

 

[DukeDallas9192011015]

I just want to see us have a fast start and take an early big lead.
Incarnate Word is the 350th defense out of 364. Offense needs to go crazy.

Duke 105
Incarnate Word 55

Evans has 20.

 

[Dattier]

I've never heard of them. They were 8-23 last season. Why are we playing them? Is their coach Jon's brother-in-law?

 

[Dattier]

I predict Cameron Sheffield gets his first points in a Duke uniform tonight.

 

[The_Only_Blue]

I want to see Evans get 15-20 minutes
Big Pat 10- 15 minutes
Harris 10- 15 minutes
Hubbard 5 minutes
Borden 5 minutes
Sheffield 5 minutes

 

[christophero]

Duke by 80. I will start my postgame thread next game. Busy week and us hitting 50 threes will not tell us much. I am assuming this a religious school? Everybody knows that the bird is the word.

 

[Dad2ze]

While I’d hope Jon plays the bench more I still think he plays the starters a lot. Duke will let them stay in it for the first 5-10 minutes. They’ll shoot a lot of 3s too.

Duke 91
ICW - 55

 

[Mac9192]

Incarnate Word. What a useless game. Who's next, Incognito U?

 

[christophero]

We should form a Lady of the Coors light team.

 

[Dad2ze]

We should form a Lady of the Coors light team.

 

[JimboSlice00]

Duke by a ton.

 

[bullcity gamer]

As many have expressed on here already. Really hope the guys such as Evans, Big Pat, Harris, and the rest of the Blue Devils whom don’t see a lot of game action play a lot tonight.

Would love to see Coach Scheyer try out the lineup of

Proctor
James
Flagg
Brown
Maluach

Just to see what it looks like in game action.

 

[bullcity gamer]

Don’t think it’ll happen, but it would be something if Coach Scheyer started the following guys tonight and gave them the bulk of the minutes:

Hubbard
Harris
Evans
Gillis
Big Pat

Joking aside, what is the point of scheduling this type of game at this point in the season? It just doesn't make sense.

Anyway, as already stated, Duke by a bunch and let the bench get tons of burn.

Our non conference schedule was brutal so I’m okay with a tune up game. Everyone gets a few “cupcakes” this year. My blood pressure thanks Jon in advance haha.

Because now is the time to start building big Pats, Evans and Harris confidence and allowing starters to rest . Wouldn’t be shocked if after the ten minute mark most the bench is on the court .

This is the line up I would like to see .

 

[The_Only_Blue]

Us with toe and foot injuries. Hope it's nothing serious and he's just out as a precaution

 

[dukesince91]

I think Jon has the right starting lineup now, he just needs to swap Brown for Mal.

We're snakebit with feet.

 

[NCirishman]

Exactly

 

[christophero]

Oh man I was recently thinking that Brown is the guy we can't afford to lose. Not tonight but going forward.

Probably just bruised from kicking so much a$$ lately.

Day to day one has to assume is precautionary considering the opponent and we have a week off until the next game. At least that’s what it feels like.

 

[christophero]

A toe injury is so vauge. Did he stub it? Ingrown toenail? Another secret that will be taken to the grave.

 

[AlanInNJ]

Fair enough guys. I’ll trust the process.

 

[christophero]

I'll toe the line.

 

[sheyduke]

I'll toe the line.

😂. Another toegate

 

[The_Only_Blue]

Same ol ugly start. Luckily we're not playing anyone good

 

[NCirishman]

I wish Foster could finish 😬

 

[sheyduke]

This is just wow right now . Where is all this fire power Duke supposedly has ? I’m lost we’re only up two almost at the half way mark of the first and only have ten points. Are we playing a top 25 team ?

 

[The_Only_Blue]

Don’t think it’ll happen, but it would be something if Coach Scheyer started the following guys tonight and gave them the bulk of the minutes:

Hubbard
Harris
Evans
Gillis
Big Pat

Maybe Jon should try this lineup now. This is unacceptable against this incarnate

 

[sheyduke]

I’ve got to say if ever was a time NOT to be impressed with this Duke team, it’s tonight’s game .

 

[dukecorey]

Horrible start by this Duke team again. Why can’t this team come out ready?

 

[sheyduke]

Beyond I mean we can barely buy a shot and are only up 2 .

 

[sheyduke]

This is on Scheyer . They keep saying he said he was worried about these type of games. Seriously?

 

[NCirishman]

Maybe we can rally and have 25 at half. 😂
