Marvin Bagley should be a lock for #1

Man once they learn to play defense competently, Duke will be pretty much unbeatable...

Has Bagely rested at all in the second half

grayson played the whole game and bagley only rested for like 1-2 minutes...they are our ironmen

lol, Grayson sees the floor differently then Tre due to his experience

I feel you on that, but tre has been a PG his whole life and played as such the first few games. Somehow, grayson is still by a wide margin our best overall passer. i don't know what switched in his head to make him think he is westbrook/wall in these last 4-5 games. what was the first thing G said after the MSU game when maria taylor asked him what happened to make him go off like that? He said that tre happened. we need that PG tre to go back to slowing down, moving the ball, and getting our shooters in the best positions to score. he's been freezing G and gary out alot lately and making incredibly costly turnovers with over penetration. I love his defense, really just need him to get his head back offensively.

we won this game not only with defense but b/c our worst FT shooters made their FTs. props to bagley, wendell, and tre for stepping up and calmly hitting big FTs.

well he's playing against better athletes these last few games and really well coached teams both White and Shaka are smart young coaches. The message is out that Tre can't shoot and they are sagging off on him, so once that happens his options are reduced. If he drives they funnel him , he can't shoot, and if he passes then his basically giving in to the fact that the team can sag off on the point guard, which makes him useless on offense. So he has to shoot it or drive into the teeth and try to figure out the best move thereafter. I don't see that changing this year and he might need another year to learn to shoot.

Carter is a good FT shooter (at least that's what I thought, not looking at Stats)
if Bags can hit FT's like that , we are gonna be tough to beat.

Rupp Rafters are the most insufferable bunch of p*ssy fans on the net...they are obsessed w/ duke and their entire first page is typically 50% threads about duke. they have multiple threads there about this game how the refs sucked to let duke back in it to get the win.

of all games, this one wasn't ref dominated. I actually think this year the refs have been amazingly good. Even when Duke was down by 16 I didn't think they had a bad calls...the only call that was iffy I could see is the Carter potential 5th foul....could have been called, looked like a flop in real time
