Thereās no way we win and there isnāt some controversy. Itās best to be prepared for that already.
He has to play under controlā¦heās pretty well rounded but not elite in any one area. Meanwhile dooks players are also well rounded and bigger at their sizes. Most of our team is similar to Thomas.
A guy like Jacari who *excels at shooting is definitely a threat, so our potential advantage is getting him involved, and then everyone else playing SMART and as a TEAM in order to disrupt dook.
Iām worried about turnovers. Malik and TDR primarily.
Jacari has better handles but puts himself in bad positions, Chance prone to getting sped up. Sam prone to following asleep.
TDRās family can stay at home. He played like ass when they were here.
Me reading Tu on Twitter: āTDRās knee? Nah, man, come on.ā
Iāll be sitting behind the duke bench as a guest of one of their assistant coaches. I might burn the bridge of our friendshipā¦.
goddamn right, you burn that bridge
Line opens Duke -9.5.
Honestly thought it would be double digits. Vegas believes
Chance dropping 30
We can only hope⦠I just hope him and Malik donāt try to complete their kamikaze drives when they close their eyes in the paint too often this game. While Chance makes some eye-opening ones⦠I think his success rate is sub 50% and Malikās has to be sub 25%.
Just donāt get blown out. If they can keep the margin of defeat to single digits, I would sleep well.
That was a highlight in an otherwise brutal year. Stattmann first off the bench. Walk on Malachi Poindexter logging minutes. Caffaro starting. But despite all that, TB out coached K which was a beautiful thing
Jayden Gardner putting the clamps on Banchero was the best.
defense was fantastic that year, offense well not so much.
Our best 3 point shooter that year among rotational players was Kihei Clark at 34%.
Just a really flawed roster. We clearly expected Trey, Casey, Jabri, and Carson to be at worst in the rotation that year but obviously that wasnāt the case (for different reasons). Combination of missed evals, poor roster planning, and some plain bad luck (Murphy being eligible a year early and blowing up, Armaan having an uncharacteristically awful shooting season).
Malik killās me when he does that.
Forgot how fucking stupid the reffing was that game. Fully expect the same tomorrow.
