MBB: Duke 72, KU 75 Post-game Thread

[King of Defense]

It is hoped that those streaking will not be seen as streaky.

Streaking is more of a UVA thing, isn’t it?

Also probably something that would be more heavily punished today than in the past.

Duke may blow out Auburn in Cameron. Don't be shocked.

UNC who plays at a much faster pace kept them to 85. I think we hold them to 75 but if we don't make 8+ 3's and turn the ball over more than 12x we won't stand a chance.

Pretty close. Made nine threes and committed four turnovers.

I think this game was one of the worst officiated games, and also Dickinson is a real jerk.

He didn't bleed. No foul.

Interesting... looks like the ref was watching that play while running towards the other end of the court... and of course, no call, no review

I mean, he is more likely to have a career in pro wrestling than basketball. He understands how to play a heel. Looked like he was going to attempt a sleeper hold until he saw the ref.

Anyone want to place a pie bet on whether Duke is a 1 or 2 seed? Or are you still just feeling cranky until the sun comes up?

One pie that pays to me if Duke is not one of the first eight teams in the bracket. Open for 24 hours.

Sure — I’m in.

This team is apparently only eight players deep and is too reliant on CooperKon.

I’m going to guess four seed. I can’t predict how far they’ll go in the tournament because they can beat anyone when the stars’ shots are falling but will have some shocking losses when they aren’t.

Revisiting - even with the injury, I'm feeling pretty good about this.

Long way to go.

Granted, the schedule ahead isn't that difficult. But that just means the inevitable off nights could drag them lower.

100% correct!

Thanks for chiming in. At least I have the reassurance they we are both hoping I'm correct!
