Doucoure

[Scarlet Shack]

Thought he was, by far, the most defensively active I have seen him to date last night. Rolled much better with rotations and kept proper spacing.

if he can do that...he will be helpful down the road to back up myles and cliff then they first half foul trouble ....

 

[Scarlet Knut]

I agree. Douc looked much more into last night's game.

IF (and it's a big if) he can provide 6-7 quality minutes, it would really help.

Maybe all the guy needs is more playing time. It’s available

Doucoure played much better and battled hard to fight for post position using his lower center of gravity at 6'9 vs 7'4. He also made the entry pass harder instead of always giving that up and standing directly behind the player in the post

Have not be a Doucore fan at all; but he stepped up last night and I really liked his defense. We will need much more against Garza. I hope he can give us valuable minutes?

What i have learned from the Douc situation is we have some real A-holes as fans. Douc gives us exactly what the 3rd center on a team should give. He is a good for 10-12 strategic minutes a game to give myles a breather. Myles getting into foul trouble at ohio state forced Douc to do things that we don want him doing. Against purdue Myles allowed Douc to be the person we need him to be...

I for one am very happy to have him and hope he can continue to gives solid minutes.

Love the Duke - he brings it onto the court.
