Official Gameday thread- Duke vs Miami II

If Koach annoys you - don't respond.

Otherwise get a room so you two can F with one another in private.
Totally agree…he comes at me every game thread.

It’s fine but I’m gonna start coming back…I didn’t say a single thing even somewhat controversial.

He has an agenda…then let’s go with it.
 
They will loose to Virginia as well. But the display of giving up the ball tonight in February is insane . It’s like they are just saying,” here’s the ball get a basket Miami !”
I hope not, man. Honestly, I am handling losses so much better this year. I'm still happy about Saturday, and I really expected to see a letdown tonight. Life goes on. It will be okay.
 
I am not even upset. We are an 8 seed. Brutal second round game. Is what it is.
 
Congrats to Roach for being the second player into double digits scoring with under 4 mins left

Why does seeding matter at this point ? I think it’s clear Duke can not win on the road . We could be a one and go out first round !

Side note . Miami is pouring it on and Laranaga has yet to pull starters .

Also, he has to be more frustrated than we are as fans with the effort he's seen tonight. K used to sit back and just let his teams take one on the chin like this to prove a point. Sometimes you can see it coming, and there's nothing you can do as a coach but let them learn the hard way. The season isn't over. We've shown we can hang with good teams and play way better than we've shown tonight. Saturday's a new day.

Laranaga is a tool. Dude runs up the score every chance he gets.

Miami running up the score on us? Let that sink in. If it was the weekend I'd drink some coors and put on the Eagles. Damn you monday.

Don’t matter . Scheyer needs to take off the gloves and throw a chair . There are a lot of things that still have not been fixed from November until now starting with the softness of this team and if Flip dribbles down the court again I’m slapping Scheyer and telling him enough is enough .

Unfortunately Jon isn’t going to berate them. It’s a different generation and different style…it’s not his style.

It’s also IMO not a good style with todays youth but only time will tell with that.
 
Let’s be honest people college basketball is changing back to the way it use to be you can’t win championships with a bunch of your main players being true freshmen! Face the facts Duke better start recruiting those freshmen to come back to school and get transfers that are difference makers and get some elite guards can’t win without them! Every Duke Championship look at their roster and they had elite guards not no Blake’s or a Roach! I’m just saying!

It’s not a style when I’m sitting here literally watching every sports commentator asking how do you play two seven footers and a 5’9” guard gets the rebound . This Duke team is soft and can not establish anything in the post !”
I agree . Also Whitehead coming back IMO doesn’t help . He will be limited and I honestly don’t see him trying to get injured a third time . If I’m Scheyer my biggest recruits for next year are Roach, Young, Blakes, Schutt and Reeves .

And Mitchell and proctor. No way either guy is even close to ready for next level.

Its been missing since the Jones brothers. You really need 2 elite guards, who can defend, drive and score and be the leader. They dont have to be 5 star recruits either...look at the teams in the Top 10...lots of players we didnt recruit and were not 5 stars...

This board is comical at times. Go back and read the UNC game thread. Everybody was pumped up and talking about this team’s ceiling and what may be ahead. Now they suck and might not make the tournament. Imagine what the players heard after the redemption win against the Holes. They fell for it too. Saturday’s game will tell me a helluva lot more than tonight’s game. We don’t have to win it, but it needs to be one where we compete and are sharp. I still think Flip was still feeling the fall from Saturday’s game. He just wasn’t moving too good.
 
Some of the strangest turnovers I've seen at college level especially Blake's. The mask is effecting him it was like middle school give aways.

I agree this was Flips worse game and didn't look himself
