Brooks had 1 rebound in 33 minutesPlatek and Black are worthless against athletic teams. They combined for 2 points today. Manley hasn't played in two years. Brooks was okay today, but he looks frustrated
Brooks looked decent last year but his numbers are way down.Brooks had 1 rebound in 33 minutes
How does his teams play defense every year with no excuses.Virginia is incredible. Tony Bennett is a genius. Virginia leads #12 Clemson 78-40 with 5 minutes remaining
I didn't realize that Brooks had only one rebound in 33 minutes. I was trying to give him the benefit of the doubt, but he doesn't look right
Currently watching Iowa and wondering why we donāt recruit the goofy looking white kids that can shoot the lights out and will stay 4 years
Iād love to have Garza on our team lolBecause most aren't 5 stars and not ranked in the top 20 of their class.
But I'd take most all of them anyway
Because we like competing year in and year out. This year is the exception for both Duke and Iowa.Currently watching Iowa and wondering why we donāt recruit the goofy looking white kids that can shoot the lights out and will stay 4 years
We can still compete every year with lesser talent.Because we like competing year in and year out. This year is the exception for both Duke and Iowa.
Why is being allowed to say āgoofy looking black kidā such a big deal for you?I'm a goofy looking white guy and don't resent the phrase at all. I suspect that we would not be allowed to say goofy looking black guys. I'm not sure why
Not unless we go full on UVA and drain the clock every single possession. The reason they can win every year with lesser talent is because their play style simply allows for bad offense. Not saying I'd be against that but, K won't be going for it as long as he's at the helm.We can still compete every year with lesser talent.
It is way too early to say what this year will be like for Duke. UNC and UVa are rounding into shape after some rocky starts and there is no obvious to think the same won't happen for Duke.Because we like competing year in and year out. This year is the exception for both Duke and Iowa.
2010 Duke team is a perfect example. Upperclassmen, shot well, good D, didnāt beat themselves,Not unless we go full on UVA and drain the clock every single possession.

Would you rather play fast or win games? Cause right we are doing neitherNot unless we go full on UVA and drain the clock every single possession.

Yes, they also weren't legitimate threats the prior few years either.2010 Duke team is a perfect example. Upperclassmen, shot well, good D, didnāt beat themselves,
UNC is still pretty meh at 8-5. But for Duke, no one is really consistent save for Hurt, Johnson, who could turn the corner, still hasn't had a good game outside of the first game of the season and we don't play great defense.It is way too early to say what this year will be like for Duke.

I think UVA beats us badly with those lesser recruits.Not unless we go full on UVA and drain the clock every single possession.

I agree but if youāre gonna lose at least lose with players that are gonna stick around and play for the name on the front of the jerseyYes, they also weren't legitimate threats the prior few years either.
Johnson is one and done we expect that. What is going to be frustrating is that 4 more players will declare or test the waters despite not being anywhere near NBA readyUNC is still pretty meh at 8-5. But for Duke, no one is really consistent save for Hurt, Johnson, who could turn the corner, still hasn't had a good game outside of the first game of the season and we don't play great defense.
Only problem is that our guys donāt just test the waters they jump in lolNothing wrong with testing the waters. Honestly, more kids should do it.
Because they suck at defense.Currently watching Iowa and wondering why we donāt recruit the goofy looking white kids that can shoot the lights out and will stay 4 years
Itās not exactly like our current roster is shutting other teams downBecause they suck at defense.
Per kenpom, Duke currently ranks #39 nationally in D. That's better than 318 other teams. Iowa ranks #69.Itās not exactly like our current roster is shutting other teams down
