MBB: Duke v. Maryland ACCT Pre-Game and In-Game Thread

[Utley]

5 on 1 right now - thanks Sheed. Got to get Seth unleashed and Cook going. Somebody cover Wells.

[dukelifer]

I agree, but of more concern, to me, is our defense and some rather poor decision making with our passes.

Wells is killing Duke

[slower]

I've never seen anybody get more balls poked away from behind than Mason. Never.

Plus, Len may just school him again.

Big trouble folks - Duke is getting nothing from its seniors.

[Dr. Rosenrosen]

Not a lot of hustle or urgency right now. Wow.

[RaiderDevil]

No hustle, no shots falling, not ready to play. This is getting Miami like

[grossbus]

Getting nothing from anyone not named Rasheed.

Yikes.

They are running on us like crazy.

[Chris Randolph]

Listening on the radio. Not surprised one bit. Can't get in too big of a hole at half. Second half will be better

[BlueDevilBrowns]

Bad offense is leading to bad transition defense right now.

[KandG]

Have always felt the season will come down to whether good or bad Quinn Cook shows up, even with Ryan Kelly back. Tonight, he is invisible. This kind of performance guarantees the season ends next weekend.

Totally agree

[Tucknut]

Way too soon to panic. We've seen this before.

[slower]

Maryland is just playing very well. If they can maintain it, they probably get the W. It's a question of them overcoming attrition.

[DukieInBrasil]

Curry, Kelly and Plumlee have all been no shows. Cook has done nothing of value. Really, the only guy that has produced any value is Rasheed.
No 3s, very poor FG%, not turning MD over, we're turning the ball over alot.

Kelly with a nice and-1 play. Maybe that'll get us going?

[azzefkram]

Poor spacing on O, pounding the air out of the ball. Oh and guarding Wells might be helpful.

[Dr. Rosenrosen]

Cook just can't initiate the offense.

[Les Grossman]

stone cold

[slower]

Live by the 3, die by the 3. Ryan and Seth giving us NOTHING.

And nice of Mason to take it to the hole like a MAN. Get the bucket or the foul, man - it ain't brain surgery.

Having said all that, I think we're "okay" if we keep it within 10 at the half. But if Wells keeps it up, it might just be one of those games. Terps seem well-prepared - gotta give them credit.

[DukieInBrasil]

Wells is just destroying Kelly, and Kelly is giving Duke almost nothing on O, although we're not usually getting him the ball with good space. Although he did just brick that wide-open fast-break 3.
Good move to put TT on Wells rather than Kelly.
