MBB: Duke at Miami - Pre-Game and In-Game Thread (Wed 1930 EST, Espn2)

[Kfanarmy]

2nd half has been ugly from 17 - 9 minutes left...ugh. Two Ts, and a couple of wow bad fouls

[rsvman]

Still a lot of sloppy play...

[NYBri]

The only thing we have to solve are these periods of time where we disappear offensively.

[rsvman]

Hood quiet in his half. I'd like to see him get more involved soon.

[NYBri]

And some really stupid play.

Encouraging sign that we can win these ugly games pretty comfortably. Tonight's game reminds me of the 09-10 team that ground out a lot of tough games.

Rebounding is looking strong.

These guys - and Cook in particular as the point guard - need to learn to focus for 40 minutes!

[DukieInBrasil]

strange, inexplicable stretch of bad, unfocused basketball for a long stretch of the 2nd half.
Nice to see Sheed with a couple of nice plays

[Dukehky]

I think that we really need to take care of business in these next two games. I'm sure the game at Miami last year, although two completely different teams, is still fresh in the minds of our returning players and has been conveyed to the new guys. I actually expect us to win this game handily, which is the first time I've thought that going on the road this year.

Boom.

[Gthoma2a]

Boom.

Boom was what Rodney just did.

[Ichabod Drain]

Rodney Hood tho

[rsvman]

Hood quiet in his half. I'd like to see him get more involved soon.

Yeah. That'll do.

[Dukehky]

Boom was what Rodney just did.

All a part of winning the game handily, friend.

Speaking of, Jabari with the quietest 15/15 game I can remember. Way to let the game come to you on offense while going and getting it on the glass young fella.

Lol at Hood dribbling the ball for a good 25 secs then nailing the long 3. That's a way to kill the clock.
