MBB: Duke vs. Michigan Pre-Game and In-Game Thread

[FerryFor50]

McGary is trying too hard. He should keep that up...

[_Gary]

No change from MSG - Cook/Thornton/Hood/Parker/Hairston

Color me shocked. Good thing I didn't take a bet in Vegas on that one, becaue I would have bet the house either one or both of Thorton and Hairston wouldn't start.

[Gthoma2a]

Josh should have just heaved it there. That is why we need to get a 5. We have guys out there that don't have to be guarded.

[pfrduke]

So, will the new review rules allow them to take away Thornton's 3 during the break? Or can they only review the foot on the line calls?

[DU82]

But of course, it won't.

8-2 is a good start

[slower]

Hairston - WHY??

Matt Jones looking good.

[duke4ever19]

Yay Marshall!!

[Gthoma2a]

Hairston filling up the stat sheet, the bad way. I love him, but he can't stop fouling.

[Gthoma2a]

Go Marshall!!!

Need a shooter

[_Gary]

Need a shooter

Which is incredible for this team. I'd never have thought we'd lack for that at any point, in any game. Amazing that neither Rasheed nor Andre can fill that void consistently.

[Gthoma2a]

I love seeing all of these guys. That gives us a completely new look. We look nice out here.

[Acymetric]

Did one of out players throw that shoe in the crowd?

[dukelifer]

Playing hard- that is for sure

Or Matt or Jabari or Rodney. We have shooters. I think it is strategic, though. With the new rules, why not attack and draw fouls?

The Michigan player threw it.

[CDu]

OK, who predicted that a lineup of Plumlee, Jefferson, Thornton, Dawkins, and Jones would have the early +/- lead?

Not easy against that D- also they do not foul

[UrinalCake]

Hood, Parker and Cook all on the bench. Not sure if K is sending a message or just stealing some time to rest them as long as we're maintaining the lead. Would definitely like them to be fresh at the end of the game.

Wow- big mistakes by Tyler
