MBB: Duke @ Clemson (Sun 2/18, 1:00 p.m. on ACCN) Pre-Game and In-Game Thread

Any news on Bagley's knee? It's been darn quiet from Duke and on these boards about the knee. I just have a really bad feeling inside about this... Vigil needed?...

It's over...

Bagley has been officially ruled out for tomorrow's game against Clemson.

Was he told to bag it?

Gthc!!! Gthc!!! Gthc!!!

Short-handed Duke against shorter-handed Clemson. Bagley III is going to be missed but the loss of Shelton Mitchell seems far more serious for Clemson. It's a real shame this couldn't have been a matchup against healthy teams.

[Troublemaker]

Hoping you’re right! We really need Bags back in the lineup ASAP.

Frankly, I feel better about beating Clemson without him.

Let's use a home game to assimilate Marvin into this new Duke team (zone + Grayson as a 20ppg threat again).

Anyway, I'm sure he'll be healthy soon, and we're just being extra cautious with him right now.

I'm not happy with Loserville right now, poor effort tonight. Not what I wanted/we needed. They blow. We needed more.

They're terrible tonight and not getting the bounces either.

[duketaylor]

Crowd at Loserville might as well go home, they don't exist; one quiet place. Can hear sneakers on the floor, no vibe, they suck!!

It's looking like Saturday all the road teams will win...I'm going out on a limb and predicting that only one road team wins tommorrow.

[Bob Green]

Perhaps I am guilty of overconfidence; however, I'm feeling pretty good about today's game. Clemson has hung tough since losing Donte Grantham but losing Shelton Mitchell (starting PG) on top of Grantham will be too much for the Tigers. While a counterargument can be made that Duke will also be short-handed due to Marvin Bagley being out, Clemson is going to miss Mitchell a lot more than Duke will miss Bagley. I'll stop short of stating Duke wins easily, but Duke will win.

Jack White dunk!

Great start for both teams. Gonna be a fun one.

[rsvman]

Can't believe they called a defensive foul on Bolden on that play. C'mon!

[wavedukefan70s]

When we played Virginia I said it reminded me of Clemson. example 1A.

[ChrisP]

Putrid, weak offense and refs allowing a LOT of contact (after initially calling it close) keeping Clemson in it thus far

Not to mention at least two missed chippies by us.

It's all good, though.

That was total crap. And Wendell's been hacked a few times too.
