Official Gameday thread- game 8- Duke Vs Purdont

[Dad2ze]

There is not an 8 point shot. Just keep driving.

 

[pisgah101]

We need a 3

 

[K-oach Q]

This might be Proctors coming out game…only thing left is his three ball to start falling and I think it eventually will.

 

[ioliva]

This team battles So hard. It’s nice to see actual coaching done in game, in regards to the defense. If scheyer can just figure out our offense more we can be pretty good

 

[pisgah101]

Who was saying something about Proctor? No Grandison was picked up because of his three point shooting and leadership. How has he shown Either?

Me! Haha

 

[K-oach Q]

We need a 3

I just said this same thing to my Dad

 

[The_Only_Blue]

Glad to see the guys battling out there. Let's face it, we're probably never going to have a 7'4" monster unless we play them in the tourney.

His 3pt shot was with a serious post player(Kofi), Ayo, Curbelo, another shooter...

Don’t let @K-oach Q read this

Yup. No way Grandison steals any minutes from Proctor.

 

[pisgah101]

Is lively going to get better? Lol

 

[jamsession3]

Layups gentlemen. Let's make them.

 

[pisgah101]

We need to run something for flip too

 

[christophero]

It's refreshing watching a really young team who has to figure out how to play together. Because we never have that.

 

[pisgah101]

I’m what world does Mitchell need to shoot a 3?!?

 

[jamsession3]

We need to run something for flip too

Flip is still realizing Eddy is 7'4.

 

[pisgah101]

Crap call. This one’s over now I think

 

[Dad2ze]

Is lively going to get better? Lol

Finally a block from him.

 

[Dad2ze]

If that 7’4 dude ever gets injured Purdue’s season is over.

 

[K-oach Q]

We’ve had chances but we can’t shoot a lick…not one lick…

 

[JimboSlice00]

Dariq is very, very far away from helping this team.

 

[christophero]

Our signature win is a victory over unranked Xavier.

Come on now Jam. The man just played off his player and got lit up for a three he’s a fifth year senior! Catchings is 6’5” and legitimately played pf for Harvard is that a reason why he’s sitting on the bench ? Dukes guards play is going to be a work all year.

 

[pisgah101]

We’ve had chances but we can’t shoot a lick…not one lick…

That’s what’s so frustrating ..we had chances

 

[Fourteen44]

I’m out gents. It’s one loss, but this team has a lot of work to do. I’m having fun watching AAU-U, though.

 

[ioliva]

Dariq is very, very far away from helping this team.

Yeah and forget about the nba. I’d hate to see another Harry Giles

 

[christophero]

The Bengals won today so the day wasn't a total loss.

 

[K-oach Q]

I shoot better than probably nine guys on this team….and that’s not an exaggeration.

 

[Duke1783]

Next just try to enjoy the season then see what next year’s crop of freshmen can do

 

[Dad2ze]

Dariq is very, very far away from helping this team.

This is his 5th game back with limited minutes since Delaware. Give him time.

 

[sheyduke]

Duke just has to figure out is it going to be two scorers and a role playing big or is Scheyer going to take off the gloves and get into some of these players.

 

[BigRedLar]

Team is really lacking a couple go to scorers

 

[K-oach Q]

All you have to do is guard Roach and Filip and this team can’t score….it’s all Duke has.

I think Proctor will come around eventually….but the others I’m not so sure will improve.

 

[jamsession3]

I hear your point, its legitimate. However, there is a luxury to play with a 7'1 285lb center that commands a double (Eddy). Kofi allowed Grandison to shoot the 3pt with zero to no pressure. It didn't hurt to have Ayo and Curbelo.

 

[JimboSlice00]

This is his 5th game back with limited minutes since Delaware. Give him time.

Yes he needs time-thats why I said he's far away at the moment.

 

[Duke1783]

Really?

 

[jamsession3]

Roach is exhausted. He going to say a bunch of mean words in the lockerroom.

 

[The_Only_Blue]

I know they lost today to UConn but this Purdue team reminds me of the Iowa women's team with of course not as dominant big. Good ball movement and bunch of shooters. We will lose but our guys battled. We won't face another player like Edey

 

[jamsession3]

Whitehead is coming and Blakes will score off D.

 

[Dad2ze]

Maybe they should leave Lively on the bench and start Reeves.
