Seems quite ugly judging from my Twitter feed.... Some things aren't meant to be. My TV in my Duke Room **** out this week, waiting for warranty parts, and my WIFI is Fing up today. No ESPN3..... Not sure if watching would help but my god I'm frustrated just reading about it

It seems we can never get everyone to click offensively on the same night. Our defense is at least looking pretty good, but if we could get everyone playing the offense they are capable of at the same time.....shew. We'd blow just about every team out.

We've defended well. We've actually done well on the glass after a poor start. We're even getting pretty good looks within the offense and attacking....creating FT opportunities. We just can't make a shot.

I think we are in big trouble...Wake has been sloppy and disorganized..we have been totally apathetic for a few games now. We are only up 1 point and they are playing as bad as they can.

I don't think it's as bad as it probably seems to you. We just can't making anything. We're actually doing more things well than you'd think by looking at the score. But it's hard to overcome 10-35 shooting no matter who you play.

Bright side is we are up 1 and shot 28% vs Wake 48% We can't possibly shoot worse in the second half

When you shoot less than 30% at home during the first half then it's going to be close no matter who we are playing. Feel very fortunate we are up. Need some adjustments because we can only keep them held off for so long. OFC

We've gotta win this game, don't get me wrong but I'd rather see a shoiting struggle tonight vs Saturday. They happen. Dukes a great shooting team, avg's will come around. We just need to get by tonight, it's already to late for style and momentum. Win this thing and let K work his magic. Think the team needs another wake up call.... This should do it

I think the expectations were a bit high coming into the season. And then when they won some big games after a slow start, the expectations went a little high again. But this team has shown the ability to be good and win big games, so I certainly am not quitting on them or counting them out. But what I have witnessed over the last few games has been diarrhea.

Wakes a heck of a lot better than their record. Just because they don't play on national tv all the time where most of y'all can see them doesn't mean they aren't good. I've seen them a few times here locally and they are well coached and always play hard

The reason we are in trouble is because we can't guard Thomas.

When we won the first game we were fortunate he went out with foul trouble for a stretch. That's when we separated..he's not in foul trouble this game. We really blew it letting them hang around at the end of the first half.

We may win but it will be every bit of a nail biter now.
