Optimistic about this team

[timo0402]

@ConorONeill joins us once again, to give his thoughts on the three game road stretch and in particular the Wake game.





P.S. 3 guarantees in life. Death. Taxes. And the team who beat duke loses their next game.

Due to the over the top flattering remarks made by posters on this board about his podcasts, he likes to basks in each episode for a while.

Rally enjoyed the pod this is great stuff.

 

[kingbluedevil]

Really enjoyed Timo as always. Could invite couple posters on or that might be risky.

 

[timo0402]

Thanks all, we enjoy putting these together for Duke nation!

The latest episode: previewing State, recapping the last two games, jumping into a variety of mailbag questions.

 

[timo0402]

Bumping this for anyone who wants to hear our predictions for tonight and a few other mailbag questions.

S/O to you guys on "5PP." All of you picked Duke to win fairly handily on the podcast. Kudos. I had no idea, we could take control of the game around the 10 minute mark, and slowly squeeze the life from both the Wolfpack and the crowd. (Heck I have seen some K teams roll over in Raleigh from such an ugly start, 0-9).

Of course that's why you gents are giving your Blue Devil wisdom, and we're watching! Needless to say another interesting show upcoming before some game Saturday I think?? OFC

 

[timo0402]

Recording tonight! This team has found yet another gear in the form of Stewart and Power. Length, athleticism, and another outside weapon. We are absolutely trending again for the second year in a row under Jon. Let’s Go Duke!

 

[timo0402]

As promised. We recap the NC State win on the road, discuss the differences between Duke and UNC since round 1, what to expect in round 2, and of course predictions. Enjoy and leave your thoughts on where you think we are right or wrong.

 

[dukecorey]

Great job guys, wouldn’t expect anything less.

If we had just waited 12 hours we could have broken some big news! We thought it would happen Saturday before the game. I guess the big fella wanted to do it today!

 

[sheyduke]

Great podcast again Timo.

My one question . I do agree with AC’s (hope I said his name correctly couldn’t see it on the screen) Flip on Ingram . However my question would be at that point does he think if Ingram decides to drive Flip, which seems to be Flips tacky foul situation. Would that be a help defender situation to try and keep Flip out of foul trouble ? I guess I’m saying do you guys think Flip could stay out of foul trouble if Ingram begins to drive on Flip ?

Very good question Shey. I plan to listen to podcast today. Flip on Ingram is definitely a viable option. #GTHCGTH

Timo I agree with your Saturday prediction. I think we murder them

I think the idea of Flip not playing bacot is to keep him out of foul trouble. His length on Ingram will make him a 2pt scorer as well.

It's a big game for seeding purposes.

 

[bullcity gamer]

It's a big game for seeding purposes.

The way I see it, of course the way I see it is probably no where close to how the comittee sees it haha!

2 seed:

Win tomorrow AND do not sustain any losses in the ACC Tournament which are to the likes of anyone outside of Unc and Clemson

3 seed:

Win tomorrow BUT lose to Unc OR Clemson in the ACC Tournament

OR

Lose tomorrow BUT beat Unc OR Clemson in the ACC Tournament

4 seed:

Lose tomorrow AND lose to any team in the ACC Tournament that is not Unc nor Clemson

 

[christophero]

I agree. I just get the feeling if UNC sweeps us the committee will just think we are good, but not a top 2/3 seed team.

 

[springsportster]

I feel like we are a 3 seed at best honestly and I do think we win tomorrow. Toughness when we run up against a team like Tennessee like last season is what will define whether we win a naty or not, IMO. Seeding is just a number at that point.

 

[dukecorey]

I believe Duke will be either a 2 seed or 3 seed depending on tomorrow game and how ACC tournament turns out. Duke would have to lose the next two games to get a 4 seed.

I am not worried about Duke being tough this season. They’ve gone punch to punch in every game up to this point, I’ll be very surprised to suddenly watch them back down to any opponent.

 

[AlanInNJ]

Good point Bull, and that’s exactly the tenacity I expect from here on out. There is no reason to expect anything else. If we come up against a blistering shooting team or a team with an agressive big who has a huge game we could be in trouble. But I fully expect us to fight til the last point in the very last game.
