Saunders missed dunk then hitting Blake in the face on the rebound attempt and going out of bounds is basically how this game has gone.

Welcome to the ACC Saunders

And he’s been sitting quite a bit, which I don’t get.

Ayers is a colossal douche-canoe

The amount of Saunders minutes is perplexing. He hasn’t really done anything to justify the amount he’s played so far.

Any Sanchez-stans wanna defend his substitution patterns tonight with bigs?

Saunders wasnt fouled but good point on leaving points off the board

The Rohde Backwards dribble is a result of our coaching and offensive scheme Im slowly realizing. We wouldn’t see it under a Byington/Calhoun/Odom aggressiv offense

We’re fighting! Duke is just stronger and bigger. That’s a vet team with lottery picks.

The thought of Ronning it back is excruciating for me. Nothing against the guy but how anyone can watch this brand of basketball and think retaining him is in the long term best interest of the program is INSANE to me. I thought it was a bit for some of you at first but it’s actually terrifying to me that so many now discuss it unironically.

Plain and simple, really hard to win a game when you’re getting outrebounded 24-8.

Will say I’ll be disappointed in Ron if he trots out Blake and Saunders in the frontcourt again, this is not their game. Need Robinson and Cofie even with his foul trouble.

He’s actually playing really good 1x1 defense vs. Flagg. Where Flagg has burned us is on switches.

Duke with the 24-8 boards advantage

Well that certainly could have been much worse but if we can’t get rebounds on D we’ll have little chance of making it closer

Yeah he’s been good in a couple iso’s against Flagg, but he’s also once again giving us virtually nothing on the boards and is 0-5 from the floor. The good defense doesn’t mean much if we’re just gonna give up an offensive rebound and let them have another possession.

The score doesn’t surprise me. Duke has 5 stars out the wazoo, and it shows. I’m also okay with offense. But our rebounding and help defense has been trash unfortunately.
