ND vs Duke

[Bkocats]

they should have driven - that was not a smart time to take that three

 

[Atrain7732]

Make your free throws ND and it is over.

 

[Rhavic]

LOL Duke gonna lose because they flopped.

 

[*CatinIL*]

Kennard with a classic duke flop

Is that an official "Major" at Duke? Flop 101, 201...etc

 

[Atrain7732]

Yeah nice to see a flop call against the Dukies. Lord knows they have earned it

 

[JerseyCat84_rivals57050]

Uh oh. Coach k blazer only comes off during losses lol.

 

[Bkocats]

Jefferson still out, right?

 

[Atrain7732]

Not sure why ND hasn't been better this year. They lose Grant but still have Vasturiois, jackson and colson

 

[JerseyCat84_rivals57050]

Our best win is looking weaker, however.

 

[Atrain7732]

Nice block out Plumlee

 

[*CatinIL*]

Duke tries the flop on that last play and gets called for the foul. Nice job by the refs there.

I was surprised by that...

:uzi::uzi:

 

[Supreme Lord Z]

Ah hahahhahahha... I love watching Duke lose despite extreme cheating.

 

[CATSrock_rivals215465]

Every time I watch Duke play I'm so glad we did not get kennard. Completely one-dimensional. Very slow, weak, and plays absolutely no defense. Also does not appear to be a very good passer

Terrible assessment. He has 30+ points, hustles, is NOT slow. He's not super quick and plays a little out of control at times but I would take him 100/100 times over Briscoe or Matthews

 

[UKDC80]

Hahah. Good stuff

 

[HICATFAN]

95-91

 

[CharlieT71059]

2 in a row. They will jump to 4th in the rankings

 

[HICATFAN]

LOL .... Truly !!!

AlohaCat

 

[CharlieT71059]

would be cool to see puke lose 3 or 4 more in a row

 

[Kats23]

Back to Back losses for Duke. Top 5 for Duke on Monday. Book it.

 

[Ukbrassowtipin]

So again I'll turn it on some of our fans bc they post this nonsense about Cal ..."how much would Izzo win if he had coach K's talent"

 

[Atrain7732]

Yeah could care less how that reflects on UK as far as a good win. I want Duke and UL to lose every game by 100

 

[Random UK Fan]

bump

 

[Atrain7732]

So again I'll turn it on some of our fans bc they post this nonsense about Cal ..."how much would Izzo win if he had coach K's talent"

But, but, but K played zone last year

 

[ck-2]

Need to start calling a technical for flopping. It's sickening.

 

[fisherscat]

They are defending champs. Doubt they are overly concerned

 

[jameslee32]

No defense and Dook goes out early is my prediction.

 

[UK90]

You haven't been him watching closely enough. He was in a shooting slump early in the year, an does have some defensive problems due to relatively slow feet, but at everything else he's damn good and has been rapidly improving and developing into a fine player. Today he went for 30 pts and 8 rebounds on 66 percent shooting--pretty damn impressive day. He's gonna be really good there after he gets a year or two of experience.

Not sure how well he would've fit in here, though. He's the style of player that tends to have problems playing defense and getting his shots in Cal's system. He probably made a smart choice, at least basketball-wise, by turning us down.

You sound fun.

 

[DodgerDukie1985]

I thought Jefferson was out for the season?

At this point there's no timetable for his return. If he's back, I don't expect it to be until one month from now at the very earliest. If he's not fully ready to come back, I personally hope he'd be open to applying for a medical redshirt and trying to come back for next year.

Terrible assessment. He has 30+ points, hustles, is NOT slow. He's not super quick and plays a little out of control at times but I would take him 100/100 times over Briscoe or Matthews

I'd call Kennard crafty and/or deceptive. No, he's not super quick and yes, he plays a little out of control and his defense definitely needs work, but he can really shoot it and finds ways to penetrate.

No defense and Dook goes out early is my prediction.

Have to agree at this point. Any team with a decent big man can tear this Duke team apart, especially minus Jefferson.

 

[DodgerDukie1985]

Not so much overall big picture, but I will say this year's team concerns me.

 

[DodgerDukie1985]

I think they'll beat Syracuse on Monday. I'll say they should beat NC State, but that's at NC State and they have a good big in Abu as well as Barber, who I expect will cause all sorts of issues like Jackson did today. At Miami... well, I have no confidence there.

 

[DodgerDukie1985]

Jefferson still out, right?

Correct. And out for the foreseeable future. I'd say one more month is the best case scenario.

Nice block out Plumlee

He blocked out the way Duke blocked out all day long. They didn't.

 

[Ugoff]

Everything your average Duke fan needs in a game recap

Right here.

 

[Cawood86_rivals]

You sound fun.

[roll]

 

[contrerasmjc]

Lawl. Nice loss to a 7-8 Auburn team. I will enjoy this meltdown on Rupp.

ouch!!!!!!

 

[Bombur]

Coach K actually ate a walk-on after the game.

 

[carbonlib23]

last year's team was able to figure out how to win grinding games down the stretch when they were close.......this year, not so much....need jefferson back to see if he can show them some grit.....we shall see....

 

[KyFaninNC]

Duke is flop U for sure. Grayson Allen plays hard, but that repeated act of snapping his head back trying to get a whistle just pisses me off.
