POLL: Gameball Duke vs. NC State - Grudge Match

[BluePhil]

Could have won this game by any amount. Great to be able to slow tempo to be fresher for tomorrow.

I have to go with Plumlee - he deserves it with his stat line and heart.

 

[CRAZIE4LIFE]

I love Cook, but gotta go with Plumlee, he did his job which afforded okafor to sit quiet a bit

 

[GTHC_ GTH!]

Went with other. This was TEAM. Yes MP3 deserves it. Grayson too. But the whole team was great. They spread the points out evenly. Shared the minutes. They dove for loose balls. I just think the TEAM was great.

Mmmmmmmaaaaaarrrrrsssssshhhhhaaaaallll. OFC

I went with Marshall because he showed tonight that he can come in and not only do the usual things that he does but he can also contribute with scoring which will help give Jah a rest and keep him fresh throughout the ACC and NCAA tournaments.

 

[BornaBlueDevil]

I said K because that gameplan was masterful. He also did a good job of keeping our guys fresh and letting them conserve energy for the remainder of the ACC tourney. Fun win

 

[OldasdirtDevil]

It really was a great team victory. But I'm still going with Marshall. Congrats, big guy, on a whale of a game.

Way to go Marshall and congratulations on a nice game.

 

[HuffyJB]

Since he is very rarely in this conversation, I have to vote for Marshall "Lob City" Plumlee.

I was at the game with my State buddy in the Duke section and 2 other buddies that are UNC fans but didn't sit in the same section for this game, and it was just awesome.

Went with Coach K cause he did every move beautifully and the 3/4 court press is just a thing of beauty.

One of the best games I've been to in years, just got home and am even more confident in our team than I was before. We are on a mission and all 8 guys are completely on the same page, and after nothing short of the ACC and National Titles for not only each other, but also for Quinn cause he is still in need of one of each.

We look nasty boys. Let's Go Devils!!

K.

That was a great a game plan - offensively and defensively, as mentally well prepared a team, and as perfect a use of the bench as any Duke game I've seen in several years.

 

[Heyman25]

Plumlee, the lob king. OFC

 

[Skeelow22]

Plumlee and then Allen a close 2nd.

 

[Wojoman]

what a great game from Marshall. I always love when he does good. I love his hustle and passion for the game.

Great win

 

[BlueDevil72]

Surprised I am not seeing anyone say Coach K here. Marshall had a great night, but this was his best game plan in years. He made adjustments, and NC State was shook. I love the quote from Lacy's postgame. Justise straight told him "yall weren't ready for this." Just shows that the team had a great plan and they were completely bought in. Just love the attitude and swag of this team, and a lot of it has come from the adjustments we started making mid-season.

^ i agree, this was an easy vote for me, the answer was K.

Cool fun fact for the game- Justise was talking some trash to Lacy, next level trash talk- paraphrasing here, "You all dont know what's coming, b/c your coach didn't prepare you well enough."

That is definitely next-level trash talk.

K all day

 

[JCColsCane]

Have to go with Marshall. He's worked so hard and is showing a lot of fortitude. Got big rest minutes for Okafor and was really locked in to this game.
Go Duke!!

Next level indeed. An intellectual beating. Can you give us the trash report? Would love some more nuggets like this.

This was a total team effort. However, seeing Marshall dunk the play 6 times, play great D, and have that high energy coming off the bench really gives me more confidence moving forward. The light has come on for this kid and everyone is playing at their best right now. Which is the best time. So, I will go with other. Total team effort.

 

[JohnstonCDevil]

It was Lt. Marshall Plumlee all the way!!!

Had to go with the Dunkenstein Monster. Good to see him playing above the rim so much.
