📺 the CW 🤡
⏰ 2:15

Tomorrow feels like a joke, conference game at 215 on the freaking CW against a team in Texas.. this worlds nuts.. anyway I hope we welcome SMU to the ACC power with style. We are currently a 7.5 point favorite over the 11-2 mustangs

Duke- 89
SMU- 67

Like others have said, who knows. It will take a while to get used to SMU being in the ACC.
I’ll take a guess and say Duke 71 - 65.

Need to come out to a good start for once. Quad 1 opportunity which we won’t get often so a game we have to win if we want a top 2 seed come march.

Duke 76
SMU 71

It’s hilarious to me we act like the ACC is down but we expect every game to be close lol

It’s like this almost every year. We go from “we are so loaded” in July, to “I hope we come out ready or we could lose” in December.

We should cover, but I’m still a little skeptical myself.

Not to add to anyone's anxiety but someone on DBR mentioned the team has been hit hard with the flu. This just feels like an L. Win and we are very fortunate.

SMU runs a deep bench and so wearing them down isn’t going to happen . Will need the starters to score the ball. Duke wins but it will be a battle .

If we shoot 12% on 30 three point attempts on the road in this environment, this is a loss. This is SMUs national championship game. Otherwise, I think we take care of business and pull away in the final ten minutes. Our defense should (I said should) hold them to a season low scoring. Evans puts in 5 3’s off the bench.

Duke 72
SMU 59

This game could go either way. This will be a good test of what they have. If they start chunking up 3s it could be a long day. Evans needs more minutes especially if Kon is playing like hot trash. I think Duke squeaks out a win.

Duke - 71
SMU - 63

With Jon being out this should be interesting on how they handle change.

Box score: Duke by 9.
Cooper with 15, Proctor 8. Looks like Gillis is continuing his good play.
So far, so good. Never mind he's playing.
Looks like Kon is out sick.

9 point lead at the half. Impressive.
Brown has been very quiet. I know he hurt his toe. nothing but zeros in the box score.

Giving up too many offensive rebounds leading to a lot of second chance points. Overall a really good first half.
