Official Gameday thread- duke at VT

[christophero]

If ACC road games overwhelm you maybe, just maybe you are not ready for the NBA.

 

[Jnood]

Roach needs to go sell insurance. He is the worst junior ever!

 

[acc hoops]

This is on the coaching staff. Devise a plan to guard Cattour and not give up 3 pt shots.

 

[christophero]

Other than BC we're not even competitive on the road. VT may not even make the NIT.

 

[K-oach Q]

Duke basketball is a complete embarrassment right now….our coaching staff is way over their heads.

 

[ioliva]

Finally some nice movement. Why can’t we put together something like that 65% of the time?

 

[Dad2ze]

A dumpster fire of a half even though they’re down 7. They just have no heart it seems.

 

[christophero]

7 point lead. Could be worse I guess. The 2007 team would beat this team by double digits.

Scheyer is passing out those high and low fives though and pats on the buttocks…..

 

[Mac9192]

Something we seem to be consistent at is scoring droughts at the worst times. Saw the stat late in the half where Duke had missed 8 of their last 9 FG attempts. Couple that with only going to the line 1 time? Not a good recipe.

 

[The_Only_Blue]

We're so fortunate to be down 7. 2 missed one and one's by VT at the end. Hopefully Cattoor cools off in the second half

And one mistake becomes the out come of the game .

 

[christophero]

Does this team have the fortitude to come out with a W?

 

[sheyduke]

Got to hit shots . Don’t care if K , Wooden or any other hall of Famer is the coach . If kids aren’t hitting shots all the defense in the world won’t matter . Like Mac said,” the droughts kill this young team!”

 

[acc hoops]

Scheyer is not a good coach.

 

[sheyduke]

Does this team have the fortitude to come out with a W?

No. I suspect Contour goes off in the second .

 

[AlanInNJ]

VT is not gonna shoot 70% in the second half. We easily could be down 15. Regroup and let’s battle. Lotta game left. Our guards need to be better.

 

[denverexpat]

Didnt see the 1st half but when you let a team shoot 68% overall and 70% from 3 then its going to be a long night. Still 20 to go so maybe we adjust and show up on defense

 

[sheyduke]

Scheyer is not a good coach.

Your right he could be 1-7 in the ACC with all returning players but hey what do I know .

 

[christophero]

Our backcourt of Roach, Blakes, proctor and Grandison have 4 points? Who are we gonna beat with those numbers? Still; lots of time left.

Wait but Grandison had six points and five assist last game . There is a reason he got pulled. He can’t guard any of the VT guards . Blakes looks like Batman and well Roach is hurt . Proctor at this point is what he is .

 

[AlanInNJ]

Yep Chris. Our guards need to show up to play. And they’ve been absent for long stretches all season long.

 

[christophero]

I need some Coor's Light, but I gotta get up at 7 for work.

 

[Dad2ze]

This team could shock the world and win it all 😂😂😂😂

 

[christophero]

I feel fairly confident we will not be in the final four.

 

[ioliva]

Wowwwwwww what a BULL SHIT CALL

 

[Jnood]

Wtf was that call?

 

[christophero]

Am I hallucinating or are we tied up? I'm not home.

 

[Jnood]

We’re bad enough, we don’t need this shit!

 

[K-oach Q]

Filip got to be smarter than that…we were beat…let him score there.

 

[sheyduke]

They just awarded them one point . You call that at the point of it not after Dude misses a layup .

 

[The_Only_Blue]

Whitehead going down means Roach back in starting lineup at the 2?

 

[K-oach Q]

Achilles on Whitehead? Don’t know what else that could possibly be??

 

[ioliva]

F u jimmy dykes and the other guy. Not as much contact? Ok Duke gets called for these charges all the time, there was definitely contact as well . Wish I could post pics from my phone, stupid rivals and it’s outdated system

 

[christophero]

Whitehead is injured? This team is snakebitten.

 

[ioliva]

Took the lead with fantastic defense, let’s go!

 

[christophero]

Wow we're winning. Nice to see some fight.

 

[Jnood]

Now, if only roach wasn’t terrible!

 

[ioliva]

Teams looking sooooooo much better

Yeah definitely looks like Achilles which would be devastating for whitehead

 

[ioliva]

the home whistles are really getting annoying. Mitchell didn’t foul there and that bs flop call we’re terrible .
