Nothing I like better than turning on the tv to watch a Duke game and instead getting to watch the Cheaters win.... grrrrrr...

[rsvman]

This also cements in my mind that we really need to think hard about instituting the Elam ending in college basketball.

Whose gonna give a cliff notes of the first 8 minutes for those stuck watching this never ending UNC game? Argh.

Well the last few minutes have not been very good for Duke

Kinda sloppy imo. They’re shooting 12-18. They can’t stop Hurt - he has 12 of our 19. Williams has looked good to me. Guards have been so-so.

roach is playing really poorly

Yep. 2 fouls each for him and Goldwire.

[rsvman]

No replay on what looked like an obvious flop by Johnson? Where is Bilas when you actually need him?

[rsvman]

Would a zone help against this team? They are in the paint way too easily.

[Sixthman]

They are killing us on the boards; they are first to every spot; we are stationary on offense; we are a nonentity on the offensive boards; roach and steward out of sorts.

Louisville is big and physical. Duke is not handling it well. Gonna get a bit out of reach if Duke doesn’t start hitting shots

We played some but they were scoring anyway. Unfortunately, a very good version of Louisville has come to play tonight. Their D is taking us completely out of our game.

Their length is bothering us. Difficult to get rhythm on O. Could get ugly quickly if we don’t start hitting shots. Generating turnovers might create better offensive flow.

3 Duke guards have 0 FGs, 6 TOs and getting killed by Louisville guards on the boards. Hurt needs some help,

Duke is not hitting now. Need more Hurt

This looks like a completely different team than the one who played the cheats last weekend.

[simplyluvin]

Gotta keep this close. Forgettable half can be overcome.

[Billy Dat]

Our guards need to give us something this game...come on DJ!!

They are at full strength. Duke guards are having a very poor night.
