You are a joke. K hasn't lost with very talented teams before? Gtfo with that. Self has done the same thing too.

That wasn't even close to what I said. What I said was, he isn't going to win anything unless he has an insanely talented team that's also experienced.

Keep thinking they're a Final Four team though, it's fine with me.

Quote me saying final four... With Wiggins that chance increases though.

That was an inference on my part. You did say they had the talent to win a national title, which is funny because they have a grand total of one NBA first-round pick at this point.

When has K won with a young inexperienced team again?

He certainly doesn't miss the tournament altogether or lose to his biggest rival by 30.

But I noticed you left out the "loaded with talent" part. Compare the 2010 Duke roster to either of Roy's best teams and you'll see what I mean.

PJ, Reggie, and JMM will all likely be 1st rounders next year. PJ could this year probably . Paige was a freshman all American. Isiah Hicks is really good, and there are more bodies for the 5 spot. I think they have potential to be really good.

Who did you guys beat in the tourney again? That team had experience too.

Because if his teams aren't ridiculously talented, that up-tempo system just means they play zero defense. Plus, I doubt you realize how many good coaches are out there.

He is definitely top ten. I guess K just has no talent? Hell, you guys were more talented than Louisville.... K just had an awful gameplan

They're good, but I see them as top 10-15 rather than top 5. Hicks's development will be crucial though.

Duke was nowhere close to as athletic as Louisville. Give me a break.

Louisville has two guards, and can't shoot the 3, but he continued to pressure and extend his defense.... Is it easy to beat them, no, but especially not the way he tried to. Dook wasn't extremely athletic, but they had more talent

Off the top of my head:

Krzyzewski
Self
Izzo
Pitino
Larry Brown
Stevens
Calipari
Huggins
Boeheim
Sean Miller

Howland was definitely there too a few years ago, before he started recruiting the Reeves Nelsons of the world. I'd put Williams in the next few with Larranaga, Donovan, Beilein, Kruger, Martin, Matta, etc.

In the halfcourt, we were never going to be able to stay in front of them. And we didn't press the whole game.

calipari there but hating on williams is fun.

top four is the same as mine would be, probs. And I like Donavan a good amount. Matta annoys me but that is probably more tOSU than his coaching ability.

Behind Dook right? I like Parker and Hood is a mystery... Who plays center?
Click to expand...

I didn't say that. But you've been acting like they're just going to switch places from this year, and if that's your expectation you're going to be really disappointed.

Hood is the best athlete on the team and will be just fine. 1-4 will be great, center is a mystery but there will probably be a transfer in the mix.
