MBB: Duke v. Binghamton Pre-game and In-game thread

[willowglen]

The polite thing to say with 9 minutes left in the first half is that they are a quick and scrappy team.

But Binghamton also plays a bit like the bandit program rep that is surrounding them. Lots of AAU ball type defense, as well as some wild three point shots.

Game is not over. But I was at the Belmont game last year. This year's version is not a replay.

Put Scheyer back in already.

I'm trying to follow online, but ESPN seems to be frozen at 4-2 with 17:30 to go in the first half! Can someone please give a score? Thanks!

Boy, when he can just relax and play his game, he's really good. Man I hope his role remains suited to his talents from here on in. Some nice stuff from williams so far, too. I hope we see plenty of Z in this one. I think he can be a factor here because these guys are pretty small.

does anybody know of an online radio feed?

We gotta step up the D. We can not let this team hang around.

[banneheim]

No Z sighting...

[devildownunder]

Something like that. Having seen American History X I wouldn't ever use that expression though (not due to any racial implications, its just a particularly unpleasant image).

That said, I would love to see us jump on Binghamton and really take them to the shed, but I won't be upset if they make it a game. I'm sure our guys aren't taking this game lightly, especially since they were all (except the freshman) here for the Belmont experience last year.

I can't wait to get this tourny started!

Edit: I see I'm not the only one...sandinmyshoes beat me to it. That scene really was pretty dark.

Agreed about the American History X reference. I routinely refer to March Madness as Mortal Kombat but even I think that one's over the line.

Google Albemarle NC radio and click on the link for 1580 WZKY

Why is Jon on the bench so much? Is he in foul trouble?

[vb5678]

Yeah, he's got 2 fouls. I'm not liking Gerald's shot selection so far.

I wasn't even thinking about AHX when I made that comment, but yeah I wanted to evoke the image of a quick and brutal smashing. I haven't seen that move in like 9 years, I tend to associate the whole curb stomp thing with Gears of War...which I'm sure they were borrowing that imagery from AHX as well.

Elliot is not hesitating as much. i like that. he is our x factor.

Boy, Mayben has hit a couple of nasty 3s. Maybe we shouldn't switch on him. Even Thomas wasn't quick enough to get back in his grill after that crossover-stepback move. We need someone out on him quick enough to not have to respect his drive quite so much. goodness.

Meanwhile, Nolan!

I'm so happy I went to the CBS sports site and found live video and audio!

They were 6/12 from 3-point range!
