MBB: Duke v E Mich (Wed 11/14 7pm ACCN) Pre-Game and In-Game Thread

Full court press is working great. I think it will be a real weapon this year, even against better opponents. Anything we can do to get out in transition, where we are unstoppable.

All assists coming from freshmen right now.

Agreed. Seems kinda lame to complain when it's 46-9 but our FT shooting is not good at all. Haven't checked the stats, but guessing we'd have at least 10 more points with even decent FT shooting.

Barrett must be around or under 50% on the season too. It'll get better but he'll need to improve that.

These guys want to play slow and we're speeding them up like crazy. I can't wait to see how these guys handle UVa's defense. Should be an incredible match up.

The passing is at such a high level. All 4 of the freshmen are willing and talented passers.

Best full court press from Duke in many years, maybe since 2001. Wonder if it work against a very talented perimeter, like UVa’s?

[AGDukesky]

FT shooting and some bad passes are the only thing to complain about. So much fun to watch this team when it gets going...

Off the top of my head 2017 - we held UNCheats to 10 in 1st half. Great win at Kenan.

What a pass from Jones to Zion for the alley-oop, keep in mind he did that at full speed with a defender on him.

[duke74]

Wow... just wow. When does ESPN change its highlight segment to the top 100?

And I love the defensive intensity, quick hands, and floor burns.

Is Reddish injured? Noticed no second half play yet.

I was wondering the same thing, hes on the bench but not getting in the game.

Hmm must be. Saw on Twitter he's on the bench though.

Had a wrap on his calf so I assume it's in relation to that.

Also saw him joking a lot on the bench...prob just keeping him fresh for Maui.

Stood up and cheered a few times too so hopefully not too bad.
