Official Gameday thread- Duke Vs Pitt

[Dad2ze]

Young is fighting his arse off down low

 

[K-oach Q]

Can Schutt play yet?

 

[christophero]

Sigh.

 

[K-oach Q]

We are one of the worst teams in the ACC…once you can admit it this product on the floor is just funny….

 

[The Only Blue]

Don't let them get an 8 point halftime lead.

10 better?

 

[K-oach Q]

Look at all that energy from Scheyer walking to the locker room….who wouldn’t want to play for that?

 

[sheyduke]

Sorry I’ve got to agree nothing is changing with this team and they look tired. I’m about to jump on the ,” it’s half on Scheyers coaching !”
This Duke team also looks tired.

 

[Dad2ze]

This is just sad and pathetic!

 

[K-oach Q]

I think Scheyer is embarrassing….just embarrassing….

Hope he gets better but as of know he’s just terrible….

 

[christophero]

Down double digits to Pitt at halftime. This is..not good.

 

[denverexpat]

Veterans with a plan vs inexperience with a rookie coach...complete mismatch. Zero adjustments in effort it seems...do we slap the floor on defense anymore? Roar after a bucket? Full court press to up the tempo? I'm afraid Scheyers playing demeanor of being low key is the same as his coaching demeanor..he just doesnt get them hyped up to play with the right amount of effort.

 

[K-oach Q]

Sorry I’ve got to agree nothing is changing with this team and they look tired. I’m about to jump on the ,” it’s half on Scheyers coaching !”
This Duke team also looks tired.

It’s all Scheyers coaching….you could see it for weeks and weeks now.

 

[Mac9192]

We have the trifecta going. A young team that’s low on talent, low on IQ, and a young coach low on experience.

 

[jeffrey236]

Our team looks like a disorganized fire drill on both sides of the ball. Embarrassing.

 

[K-oach Q]

I could coach this team better tomorrow…that’s not even an exaggeration.

 

[sheyduke]

Down double digits to Pitt at halftime. This is..not good.

This is at home and the players look really tired.
I keep thinking about what Giavonni said when he visited Dukes practice ,” most laid back atmosphere where players were walking around with head phones . Never remembered seeing a Duke practice laid back !”
Jon it’s showing now

 

[Kingbluedevil]

Look at all that energy from Scheyer walking to the locker room….who wouldn’t want to play for that?

What about the new assistant from Kentucky looking bored to death

 

[christophero]

On the plus side, maybe we can beat North Carolina in the NIT Final Four.

Looking like that may be possible

You couldn’t be a bigger clown, absolute clown. You’d fit in well at THR

 

[jeffrey236]

If we are going to settle for jacking up threes, why aren’t we playing Schutt?

 

[K-oach Q]

This is at home and the players look really tired.

Don’t forget he often has is arms around Filip every game while we are getting destroyed also….I’m sure we will see it tonight too….

 

[K-oach Q]

You couldn’t be a bigger clown, absolute clown. You’d fit in well at THR

Why because he Moises in with the exact same energy his players are playing with? Or that the crowd is displaying?

It starts at the top….what about that inspires energy or confidence?

 

[denverexpat]

When do the players, who should have a competitive side within them, actually show some fight? This level of athlete should hate losing, just seems they arent that bothered. Jwill, Hurley, Laettner would be screaming in players faces at this point...these guys barely say anything to each other

 

[K-oach Q]

If you want your team to have energy you better coach with it….they follow the leader…even if you don’t have it you better find it….

 

[K-oach Q]

When their leader shows it….

 

[DanTheDukeFan1982]

Can’t play Young this half, all they did was get him in the pick and role.

 

[christophero]

Losing 8 out of 9 guys, new coach. What can possibly go wrong?

If this is true…it’s really really bad….

 

[sheyduke]

I get what your saying Chris but there has got to be some fire from everyone and I don’t see it .

 

[denverexpat]

we could get back in it and if its the last possession...who do we go to?

 

[sheyduke]

If this is true…it’s really really bad….

It is very true the clip I watched was him and two other analyst talking about Dukes recruiting class.

 

[christophero]

If we drop this I'm not very confident about us going to Clemson. Then Miami. Ugh.

 

[Ioliva]

Now pitts hitting almost everything and it’s tough to catch up. Wouldn’t have been a problem had we not had a disgusting first half

 

[Dad2ze]

Had the chance to cut it to 6 but Flip takes a stupid 3 instead.

 

[K-oach Q]

It is very true the clip I watched was him and two other analyst talking about Dukes recruiting class.

It would explain a lot actually…

Starting with not enough concentration on what your doing and not doing it with “intent”.

Also means you are not practicing at game speeds…which explains a lot of the fumbled balls and crazy turnovers we have…guys are not up to game speed and it’s moving to fast for them..

 

[sheyduke]

For Christ sakes just play inside !

 

[bleediteveryday30]

Time to fire Jon and hire K-oach-Q since he can coach the team better. Not saying you can't be critical. But this **** is getting to be ridiculous, man.

 

[Dad2ze]

Flip needs to never dribble again.

 

[Ioliva]

Flip making that one was huge we almost turned it over
