    Giles Question???

    The latest mock from ESPN (which I believe was released this week) has him going at number ten, and it says all of the things you'd expect in the explanation. Scouts and NBA teams still look at his high school self and are willing to take a risk that he'll be able to get back to that. If he...

    ***DUKE VS. WAKE FOREST POST-GAME THREAD***

    I don't think people are necessarily saying that we should give up on him..I just think most people (myself included) can't seem to understand why he of all people has been the constant in the starting lineup. And why he of all people continues to play all the minutes he can handle. The kid is...

    Jayson's shot selection like Jabari's?

    They may have taken similar shots (areas of the floor). But the manner in which they got those shots in the flow of the offense could not be more different.

    ***DUKE VS. WAKE FOREST POST-GAME THREAD***

    The only devil's advocate argument I can make re: Tatum is that other coaches will use the hell out of that during the recruiting process if we fail to utilize someone who is that highly regarded. However I completely agree with previous posters who've been saying that we need to play the guys...

    Jayson's shot selection like Jabari's?

    I remember during the recruiting process wondering why he would want to go to SLU...but after seeing him this year I really think that would've been the best choice for all involved. Stick him on a bad team and let him take all the shots because right now he has absolutely no concept of how to...

    Yea as hard as this would've been to imagine at the beginning of the year this team is just flat out better without Tatum on the floor.

    ***DUKE VS. MIAMI POST-GAME THREAD***

    Maybe it is too fast to anoint that group as the starters but it is extremely nice to know that if we're struggling we can use that unit as a kick in the *** to get things moving in the right direction. In my opinion nothing builds confidence like shutting a team down on that end..it's...

    ***DUKE VS. MIAMI POST-GAME THREAD***

    Frank, Bolden, and Matty Ice brought it for us tonight and ignited the whole team. Grayson and Luke need to prove that they can stay in front of somebody on d or else they're going to lose a lot of minutes to Jackson and Jones moving forward. I was also shocked to see how well Bolden moves for...

    He's going bald and is constantly making sure he's got full coverage.

    Amile is not replaceable but this really is Bolden's chance. I hope Capel had that talk with him because so far I see a kid in need of a second year in a big way. Prove me wrong big fella!

    Giles on Monday

    Just to make sure I'm all caught up here...does it now appear that he won't be playing in the two games this week?

    Bolden Tatum Giles

    I know it's such a small sample size on Bolden but he strikes me as the type that would benefit so incredibly much from sticking around for two years. It would allow him to continue developing physically and mentally while also affording him the chance to play on two teams that would both be...
