Pretty much every basketball analyst in the country makes the same point about Duke and whether they can come together at the right time. Have you missed all of that or just tried to ignore it?

K isn't going to change his game plan. Y'all aren't going deeper. They are who I told you they would be when y'all were anticipating Giles/Bolden debut. 4 out 1 in, spread the floor, drive and kick. It basically depends on how well they shoot the three...What am I missing? Giles and Bolden aren't going to magically improve at this point in the year.

Either I've changed or the 16-17 version of this thread sucks donkey balls. Y'all have turned into nothing but bad trolls

Congrats Heels on the win. To be honest I'm the least interested in the ACC Tournament I've ever been. I just want Allen and Jefferson to be healthy for a six game run. We'll see what happens.

Same. I'd love for Grayson and Amile to be able to sit for maybe the first game and if we win play them the second and that be it. Grayson got to the line more than he had all season last night and seemed to be more in attack mode which is something he hasn't been able to do much of since his ankle injury.

This team is kinda in a race against the clock though, they have to play and get better as a team and try to recover from all the injuries. Unfortunately, you just can't sit those guys then interject them in the NCAA tournament. We saw how that worked with Kyrie, just threw everything off.

That was a good game Saturday. I haven't paid much attention to Giles this year, but he looked really bad. I know he's coming off a significant injury...I'm just wondering what type of advice he's receiving. I think he would be better off to have not played at all this year.

Also, once every generation or so there is a Duke player who, despite every shred of self-respecting decency that I have, I just can't help but like as a player. Grant Hill is one that comes to mind. Luke Kennard fits into that category. He's just a great player. He doesn't whine when a call goes against him. He doesn't act like a punk when things don't go his way. I just wish he played for a different team!

Luke and his family were actually huge Kentucky fans but Cal passed on Luke in favor of Charles Matthews who has now transferred. Thanks, Cal!

I think Duke will win tomorrow and then probably lose to UL. I don't know if Duke can win 4 games in 4 days only playing 6-7 guys and I'm not sure they'd wanna play 4 games in 4 days anyways.

I don't want Duke to lose, but I wouldn't give it a second thought if they did either. I miss the good old days when the teacher used to wheel in the tv so we could watch the ACC tournament. Good times.

This team needs more from Grayson right now. Not scoring is just unacceptable. He should be great in the 6th man role or even taking some of Matt's minutes. He's gotta step it up.

On the bright side, the beginning to middle of the second half this team showed exactly what it's capable of. Hopefully we can see more of that.

Grayson is hurt. He doesn't need to be playing.

I completely disagree. This team has to learn consistency and how to battle. Injuries or not, this team needs at least one more win this week

I'm not even sure if I want round 3. I'd rather the team ride high off this win and get some rest.
