Jeff Capel and his 12-2 panthers come to Duke looking to be one of our toughest games left in the regular schedule.. with that being said we are still favored by 14.5! I’m hoping we build on saturdays win and come out on all cylinders

Duke-95
Pitt-70

 

[The Only Blue]

Come out with a purpose and don't let them gain confidence.
Let's go Duke!

After the Hinson incident last year…… I hope we run it up on them

Duke 88
Pitt. 68

Just don’t let Lowe go off.

 

[dukesince91]

Coach Scheyer reminds our rookies what happened last year.
Duke 84-66

 

[JimboSlice00]

Pitt is solid and looks to be a tournament bubble type of team. Being at home should help and have to contain their stud sophomore. Dukes defense is so damn good and that will really help in every game we play.

You watching tonight

Pitt is underrated, honestly surprised the line is so high, 14.5? Vegas knows we are elite.
Any idea if the students are back?? Not sure we have much of a home court advantage without them. The VT game sounded kinda dead.

Duke 80
Pitt 66

We owe them for Hinson standing up on the scorers table and mocking the Crazies after they beat us last year.

 

[christophero]

I have a.busy day so someone can do a top 10 for me if they want

 

[pitt82]

How exactly a Pitt Bubble Team? They are a Top 15 Net team with victories over WVU, LSU and Ohio State. One bad performance. Good test tonight and quit clutching your pearls over the Hinson incident. Good luck tonight.

Pitt 82

 

[sheyduke]

Duke but it will be close .
Lowe is a guard that seems to always give Duke fits . I look for it to be a good game .

 

[christophero]

That 14 point spread seems high. We win by 12.

 

[AlanInNJ]

I can’t watch live so will have to follow on my phone a bit and catch the replay. Pitt has some good wins. I think it will be a tight game until we pull away a little at the end.

What happened to table jumping guy? Is he jumping tables in the g league?
I looked it up he is jumping tables for the mighty Santa Cruz Warriors. They are renaming them the Santa Cruz tablejumpers due to his stellar play.

I’m going to approve this post but not a great first post from a visitor so watch the rest of them if you wanna be here

Also 82 to ??

 

[Dad2ze]

This should be another great game. Duke needs to continue playing like they did last game. I see Duke winning big.

Duke - 86
Pitt - 59

 

[christophero]

Because Pitt is always a bubble team.

 

[JimboSlice00]

Maybe the Pitt 82 comment was the last year they made the final four? Oh never mind that was in 1941.

 

[AlanInNJ]

Whatever. Just like last year and next year and the decade after that, this is Pitt’s national championship game. They will be ready to play, but unlike last year we are at full strength and playing great team defense. I expect a Duke win.

And if someone doesn’t get posterized by a Duke player I hope Mal throws atleast five shots back to the stands and all you hear is ,” Our House !”

 

[Dad2ze]

Maluach starting out strong….hope I didn’t jinx him.

 

[christophero]

11 to 7 Duke. I may have to do a top 10 list later so I can make 10 table jumping pearl clutching jokes

Duke can’t throw it in the ocean right now . Literally missing everything.

 

[christophero]

12 to 11 Pitt. We better not lose to these scrubs.

 

[The Only Blue]

Getting some great looks just the shots aren't dropping at this moment

 

[denverexpat]

9 out 0f first 15 shots are 3's..its like watching the NBA...same make percentage too..lol

 

[christophero]

Gillis with 5. Duke by 4. I know Brown is injured but he has been the donut king lately. 9 point lead nice

 

[Mac9192]

Not sure I get the criticism of us shooting so many 3’s. We have shooters. Anytime Kon, Evans, Proctor, and even Gillis and Foster, are able to take one, they should.
And it was nice seeing the guys look for Kon after he hit his first one.

 

[christophero]

Because they miss a lot.

 

[The Only Blue]

Lucky this game isn't tied. Pitt traveling on fast break and misses two one and ones in row.

 

[christophero]

I am at work does Cooper have 3 fouls? 10 point halftime lead. Kon with 11.

 

[Mac9192]

Because they miss a lot.

Tonight Duke is 7-15. The last three games they’ve shot 40% twice and 38 against VT. My point is at any moment, any number of guys can get hot.

Like tonight, Kon was 0’fer, then hit 3 in a row.

 

[The Only Blue]

I am at work does Cooper have 3 fouls? 10 point halftime lead. Kon with 11.

Kon Coop and Mal all have 2.

 

[christophero]

I will be kind and just say Capel was not one of my favorite Duke players

 

[sheyduke]

Defense looks good got to hit open shots .

 

[sheyduke]

Poster !! All I know is don’t get him mad

 

[denverexpat]

James forcing his drives and getting stuffed.....but oh my....Cooper Flagg...wow

 

[smashmouth5]

Coop got nasty on the rim.
