Didn't see a thread yet.

Uh this Duke team is pretty fucking good.

11/6/2018 10:32:35 PM

yeah my thread usually blows up when they lose

its gonna be kinda lonely in there this year

11/6/2018 11:46:52 PM

Don't worry Stinger, I'll be there even when they win. Vomit isn't reserved for losers.

11/7/2018 7:21:13 AM

^^ it's a radical idea, but maybe try a duke message board

11/7/2018 8:57:04 AM

It's 1 game. Not going to crown them yet. UK played like crap and Duke probably played the best game they're going to play on offense this season(they aren't going to have a bunch of 45%+ from 3 nights).

11/7/2018 9:49:59 AM

their three point shooting isn’t even the scariest thing about them

11/7/2018 10:40:24 AM

^Of course not, it's the biggest question-mark they have as a team. They had a great night shooting last night, but most analysts thought their 3pt shooting would be streaky at best and limit them in games.

If they shoot +35% from 3 they're going to win most of those games. It's going to be those cold nights where they're shooting in the teens.

Biggest questions they have are 3pt shooting and depth. If they have an injury or get in foul trouble, they could struggle.

Syracuse lost to Uconn.

11/16/2018 1:31:38 AM

Only Uconn can stop Duke.

11/16/2018 9:48:30 AM

I think wake is very bad.

11/16/2018 1:01:11 PM

I don't think Virginia tech is the 16th best team in the country.

11/16/2018 2:19:12 PM

Syracuse would again appear to be overrated.

11/16/2018 7:22:52 PM

the UVA defense will probably be able to stop the Duke machine


the only way to stop UVA is to be a 16 seed

11/20/2018 10:32:43 PM

Duke down 8 to the zags at the break, they're a good team but with a bunch of freshman things like this can happen.

11/21/2018 5:52:28 PM

Gonzaga is also very good. Dukes great. They obviously won’t win every game. But they’d be my pick to win the title as of now (which is way too early to make any real predictions).

11/21/2018 6:02:49 PM

On the job training in humility

11/21/2018 6:15:42 PM

Yeah zags are kinda good, i think they ranked in top 3? . I don't expect them to go undefeated, but from the ESPN hype machine and the comparison of Zion who's a very good player to Lebron, I think every lost will bring a social media storm.

11/21/2018 6:17:09 PM

Zags have got this

11/21/2018 6:43:21 PM

Ugh I forgot how much I hate listening to Jay Bilas call a game. Remember when ESPN had actual good announcers?

11/21/2018 6:45:04 PM

11/21/2018 7:10:07 PM

How can anyone say Zion is not the best player on Duke? RJ Barrett was so selfish and plus he choked on Duke last two possessions.

11/21/2018 7:12:52 PM

its amazing how Canada continually churns out these overhyped soft prospects

11/21/2018 7:30:08 PM

Who was the announcer that would always say "THE BIG FELLA!!!!!!! PUTTIN IT INNNNN!!!!!

11/21/2018 9:08:58 PM

Bill Raftery?

11/21/2018 10:18:09 PM

I miss Mike Hogewood so much.

11/21/2018 11:53:02 PM

Hard disagree. When duke gets behind and he goes full pouty fan is amazing. I still cherish his "Of course he did. That's a layup for him" after a Wood 3 on the fast break. So petty.

11/27/2018 10:48:35 PM

The end of the VT game could have been exciting. The last 2 minutes Penn St was giving up the ball every time they touched it, but VT couldn't cash in on any of the opportunities.

11/28/2018 12:15:43 AM

PAC 12’s only ranked team (I think) just got routed by Vandy.


PAC 12 is assssss

12/17/2018 9:14:35 PM

I really want that to suck so bad that they're a one bid league

12/17/2018 10:16:00 PM

How would y’all rank the conferences this year? ACC seems to be the clear cut #1.

12/18/2018 5:14:12 AM

B1G and ACC are 1 and 2 in some order. the bottom of the ACC (mostly Wake, remains to be seen just how bad Pitt and BC are) is worse than the bottom of the B1G imo. the top of the ACC is better....Duke, UNC, UVa > UM, MSU, and I guess Wiscy. both are strong in the middle with teams like FSU, VT, State, UL, Cuse for the ACC and Indiana, Ohio State, Nebraska, Iowa, Maryland in the B1G.

ACC has 6 teams in KenPom top 25. B1G has 7 tops in KP top 25.

ACC has 10 teams in KP top 50 (and ND is 51, so just outside). B1G has 11.

ACC only has 1 team between 51-90. And then GT, Wake, Pitt, BC all between 90-140.

B1G also only has 1 team between 51-90, Minnesota. And then Illinois and Rutgers are 95 and 110 respectively.

12/18/2018 6:38:16 AM

Wake losing by double digits in the second half to...Gardner Webb.

12/29/2018 4:00:40 PM

Wake is real, real bad. I don't understand how Danny Manning is actually worse than Bzdelik.

12/29/2018 4:33:37 PM

Obviously they should fire Manning. But they just extended him last year so idk how long they’ll hold on to him.

12/29/2018 4:36:02 PM

karl hess...just lol man.

amazing that he still has a job. a lotta refs make bad calls or do the TV Teddy thing where they realize their power and really make those emphatic calls because they know it's a pivotal call. but hess is on a different level of just being completely unprofessional and unhinged.

1/4/2019 6:39:10 AM

Even though Michigan State is very good this year, I had a feeling they would lose to Purdue, given that it was somehow their third game this week, meanwhile UNC somehow gets 8 days off between conference games.

1/27/2019 3:13:11 PM

from the ETSU coach about Karl Hess in postgame presser, which LOLOL

Am I misunderstanding the basket interference rule or did Kentucky totally get hosed. Ball was absolutely still in the cylinder when the LSU player tipped it in. They even reviewed it and got it wrong. Or maybe they were only able to review whether it beat the clock?

2/12/2019 9:12:39 PM

Yeah it was goaltending. They can’t review that though. They can only review time. So it was never gonna be overturned.

2/12/2019 9:38:10 PM

Looks like we might be getting angry-and-out-to-prove-a-point Duke this weekend.

2/12/2019 10:26:02 PM

what the fuck is louisville doing, mack just totally forgot how to coach the last quarter of this game

2/12/2019 11:12:53 PM

I stopped watching 45 minutes ago when Duke was getting destroyed

2/12/2019 11:14:46 PM

We've been on the receiving end of that in Cameron before

2/12/2019 11:25:31 PM

nobody but Louisville has been on the receiving end of that

[Edited on February 12, 2019 at 11:31 PM. Reason : .]

2/12/2019 11:29:04 PM

So refs can review foul calls but not basket interference?

^ I think we were up 20ish and K got to the refs at half time and the whistles went wooo

[Edited on February 12, 2019 at 11:37 PM. Reason : .]

2/12/2019 11:35:39 PM

that was their biggest second half comeback under K

Louisville is in a class of their own
