Your typical trap game. They were obviously looking ahead to the Red Storm But seriously, great comeback. I didn't think I'd even have a reason to watch the last 5 minutes

Does anyone else find it interesting that Zoubek comes back after being injured and Duke loses 2 in a row? He doesn't fit coach K's style of offense in any way shape or form. Duke just does better without a big man.
2/21/2008 11:54:29 AM
it has nothing to do with zoubek. with the exception of scheyer, duke is shooting horribly, passing horribly, handling the ball horribly, and playing defense horribly (the past few games). no fault lies on zoubek in my opinion (and i think most people would agree with that).

what the hell happened to taylor king
2/21/2008 12:59:31 PM
Duke's offense is completely reliant on the 3pt shot and getting calls. When either or both of those things break down, they don't play well.

^^Duke shot almost 41% from 3pt land last night... pretty sure that is not the reason they lostthe reason they lost is TURNOVERS and poor defense.... Duke has not been taking care of the ball well the last two games, and obviously not defending well (giving up an average of 91 points in the last two games, as compared to the 67 they were previously allowing)
2/21/2008 2:04:10 PM
they chose poor passing lanes, didn't hustle for loose balls, were dominated in the low post, and had no answer for their big man. There just wasnt any kind of focus it seemed.... one good example was late in the 2nd half... all 5 Duke players were applying the full court press on an inbound pass and mug heaved the ball over EVERYBODY to a wide open guard who made the easy layup. That's the kind of shit you could probably expect from a school like UNC-Pembroke. They didn't match intensity until the game was pretty much all but over. This is in no way uncommon as Duke tends to have late season skids but they looked like last year's team.
2/21/2008 3:46:31 PM
what i meant was duke lost because they couldnt solve the 2-3 zone. actually 2-3 zone is a great way to stop dukes great penetration. you play 2-3 and it takes guys like hendersons game away 100% but duke wasn't hitting the 3s. I didn't even really watch the game but i didn't see king out there much and I know he was supposed to be able to hit easily from like 35 feet so it didn't make much sense to me.you would think guys like scheyer and king would munch on this kind of defense but it was pretty much all scheyer.
2/21/2008 3:56:22 PM
^ King saw more playing time and nailed his first 3 from way beyond the arc but was a no factor afterward wasting possessions w/ ill advised attempts that were rushed

i saw she-will playing for a few minutes in the Kings Hawks game last night...Artest could literally make him a solid NBA power forward...or he could turn him into a Queensbridge Gangsta
2/21/2008 6:26:34 PM
23-3Duke needed a win like this to get back on trackbut the next four are must win
2/23/2008 5:56:49 PM
a good win indeed....seemed to stretch their legs as far as 3 pt shooting went but they usually do that at home. Good to see zoubek progress a little bit.
2/23/2008 6:46:20 PM
once again, decent play, but not putting the less talented team awaythis is going to haunt them come tournament time
2/27/2008 10:22:42 PM
you could have made that same post since TWW started
2/27/2008 10:23:39 PM
yeah GT is really bad.. Duke should be up by 20

24-3, 11-2 ACCDuke plays like shit for the most part, but still beats the bunnyCoach K has 799 wins
2/27/2008 11:05:43 PM
Duke shot 2-16 from 3... that's pretty bad. henderson had a good game though
2/27/2008 11:17:30 PM
woohooo! good win over a bad team..... after two back to back losses and this late in the season, ANY win feels good
2/27/2008 11:22:51 PM
25-3 12-2 ACCDamn, I was already thinking up what I was gonna say here to give State credit, but then Duke came back and won800 wins
3/1/2008 7:23:28 PM
while the last play of the game was questionable (i really couldn't see that well from where i was sitting)there were bad calls both ways. A good road win for Duke that i honestly thought they would lose. State let Duke hang around by giving them too many 2nd chance opportunities. Turn off the 3pt waterworks and the FT accuracy and you've got the Miami loss.
3/1/2008 10:29:36 PM
there's all kinds of links to a nice view of that "play" all over this internet.and clearly you didn't go to the game. you were posting at 12:15 today, red.
3/1/2008 10:31:43 PM
wow. [called out].
3/1/2008 10:44:33 PM
check espn for a great article. coach k made the players coach the last 8 minutes because they weren't listening to him. pretty cool.
3/1/2008 11:03:19 PM
i was posting from the game. clearly

3/15/2008 5:08:52 PM
kyle singler sucks. He had a few hot games from deep now all he does is shoot 3s. He's not a good 3pt shooter hes a big midrange player that has the ability to step out. Clemson has the good plan. Get out on paulus, scheyer and King but let everyone else shoot and clog the lane.
3/15/2008 5:13:12 PM
