    Bolden trending for Duke

    I agree that Duke is a contender with or without Bolden. However, it would just be nice to have an extra serviceable player (especially a guard) in the event that Duke misses out on Bolden.

    Bolden trending for Duke

    With DT now out of the picture and Bolden not looking as likely as it did just a few days ago, it will be interesting to see if Duke looks into any grad transfers. That's of course assuming Bolden goes to UK. Are there any good grad transfers available this off-season? In particular, are there...

    You're probably not going to believe this, but a lot of Tar Heels are blaming the refs.

    What a tough loss for UNC........ Couldn't have happened to a nicer group of people.

    Elite Eight Games - Saturday

    So many bail outs for UNC, most of them coming from the refs........ but it's definitely Duke that gets all the calls.

    Elite Eight Games - Saturday

    That moving screen call on Vasturia was one of the worst calls of the tournament. Absolutely took away any momentum that the Irish had.

    Wow

    At this point I don't see UNC not winning the championship, barring like a crazy 35-40 point outing in the championship game by Buddy Hield. UNC kind of has a "team of destiny" type of feeling right now. They're just simply catching a ton of breaks such as Bentil and Dunn both saddled with foul...

    Elite Eight Games - Saturday

    It seems like every game UNC plays, their opponent's best big guy(s) always end up with 2 or 3 fouls within the first 5-10 minutes of the game.

    ***DUKE VS NC STATE 2ND ROUND OFFICIAL GAMEDAY THREAD***

    Totally agree. It would also open up the possibility of playing a lineup with two bigs (Plumlee & Jeter). At least for short periods of time against bigger teams.

    ***DUKE VS NC STATE 2ND ROUND OFFICIAL GAMEDAY THREAD***

    The flagrant foul on Grayson Allen was probably the correct call, but in no way was it a dirty play. There was absolutely no intent to harm Cat Barber on that play, just simply prevent NCST from getting an easy bucket in transition. As for the performance of the team, I loved what I seen from...

    Tourney Expectations

    It all depends on the match-ups. If we square off against a big and physical team such as Purdue in the 2nd round we will be in a lot of trouble. Not saying that we aren't able to beat bigger teams, but are chances are much better if we get a draw where we play against smaller teams that can't...

    Could not be prouder of this team

    Long time reader, first time poster. I love the fight this team has. Not to knock the team, but this isn't the most talented Duke team that any of us have seen, but I'm not sure that a Duke team has exuded as much fight as this team, especially considering the loss of Amile Jefferson. Even...
