Georgetown-Duke on now
- Thread starter jedwar
- Start date
Announcer just said the fouls are really starting to mount up for Duke. Must be my hearing fading.
Watching this game reminds me of how much I haven't missed Dick Vitale. Thought he was gonna cry when Duke got called for 3 seconds.
Duke looks very blah again. I hope they lose...more losses UNC, KU and Duke take early on the more we can absorb later on. I do not see a situation last year where almost everyone had less than 3-4 losses coming into Selection Sunday. We have more margin for error this year to get the #1 overall see and to get to the Louisville REgion.
His time is past for sure. If he'd mix objectivity in with his passion, he may still be relevant.
I haven't watched much Duke, outside our game, but I've enjoyed watching that Thornton kid. He's seems pretty smooth. I still haven't seen Ingram do anything overly impressive, how has he been looking? This year and next will be the true measuring stick to how K has adapted to the OND game.
Everytime Allen does anything Dickie V chimes in with He's A Star-- He's Special--ect: he is going to run out of superlative's before the 1st half ends.
I agree, given how they have looked against VCU and Georgetown. However, it is important to remember that we should have blown them out, and we beat them at their game (i.e., perimeter play), so even with us not having the ability to exploit Duke's weakness (tough interior play), we still handled them. Still, we have a ton to prove. This may end up being the year of a the tough, experienced teams.
He's been using the same handful of superlatives for his entire career. He's perfect for ESPN.
Georgetown has top 15 caliber talent. Smith-Rivera is a very good senior and Copeland is looking excellent so far. No idea how they managed to lose to Radford. On another note, they're tearing up Duke's zone defense.
They will playing like this. Then I'll have to hope they're like you guys from a couple years ago or Michigan State last season. However, one positive is Derryck Thornton seems to be finding his game in New York.

I'd be surprised. Very young with an ultra young PG trying to learn the college game. Green now but I'd expect them to be very good as the season advances.
I don't know how good duke is, but it's damn impressive that we absolutely shut down Grayson allen.
They aren't great but as good as anyone not named UK . There just isn't any good uber talented teams beyond UK. the top 5 IMO is 1. UK 2. Maryland 3. Iowa St 4. UNC 5. DUke but with that being said the difference between Maryland at 2 and a top 25 team like Texas A&M is almost nihl .
I have no idea how Indiana's defense is this year, but if it hasn't improved very much, the Indiana/Duke game may feature five total defensive stops

Duke is streaky. Thornton at PG makes them much better. They're playing pretty good ball in the 2nd half. UK would still beat them by double digits.
Ok, Allen should have recieved a flagrant on that blatant shove in the back.
Dickie V. didn't think it was flagrant. And he isn't biased at all....
Allen pushes off basically every play. Slaps the ball out of bounds and officials say it was off gtown. Lol
Looks like Duke pulled away. Duke is solid...will get better. They are not on UK's level this year though, but I'm not sure anyone is if we are playing our best.
This shows how good Briscoe did on Grayson. Shut him down.
