Non-Big East Conference Tournament Thread

Duke giving Boeheim a chance to make the tourney. Paying back his buddy

 

[NutmegDog]

Strikes me that there may NEVER be another game where the two opposing coaches have as many combined wins -- unless these two meet in the NCAAs (which they won't).

 

[Zionn]

Admittedly I don't watch 'Cuse BBall but apples does not fall far from tree. Boeheim's are whiney bitche$ ......all of them.

 

[Jaydumo20]

Admit it if you're rooting for Cuse. I am. No doubt

 

[Zionn]

Can they both lose?

 

[awfuldan]

I find myself rooting for them as well. Not a fun team to root for though.

If Duke loses to THIS Cuse team minus their best player, it would be a horrifically embarassing loss. And, somehow, it wouldn't even be their most humiliating loss in the last 7 days.

As much as I hate Duke, I can not bring myself to root for this whiny bunch from Syracuse... Just watched both Jimmy Boeheim and Joe Girard whine about foul calls that were... actual fouls.

And Boeheim wouldn't stop talking, despite the replay showing he obviously raked Banchero's arm. I can't root for whiny little boetches... sorry, I just can't do it.

Especially not the ones from Canada with the head whiny nose-picker who couldn't admit that his son punched the FSU player right in the stomach yesterday... INTENTIONALLY.

Ha. True. Sad. I think I'd like to see Duke fans cry again. That's my main motivation.

Syracuse can shoot, and force you to shoot. We’d actually struggle with them. Yuck.

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

I hate this

I like the spelling. Very clever. But everytime they show a Duke fan in the audience It looks like a kid whose parents said "ok honey. You can move to Williamsburg and we'll pay your rent until you're 30. But then you have to get a job and learn some responsibility:" I want that kid to feel loss.

 

[Scoe]

No I can't root for Cuse, want them out of it today, Duke winning the ACC tournament doesn't really matter to me.

I think we would absolutely destroy this Syracuse team.

Jimmy Boeheim is shooting the lights out this game. Stepping up for his little brother. Admirable.

Are you scared fate would have us meet them as a tourney 12 seed if they win ACC?

 

[Kathy]

Gotta go with cuse here

 

[Jaydumo20]

Gotta go with cuse here

Let them win today but lose tmrw. That's perfect. I can't see rooting for them against anybody but Duke

 

[UConnSwag11]

How can anyone root for Cuse? Duke is making the tournament regardless of the outcome and they aren't our rival

 

[UConnSwag11]

Duke shooting this game away to Cuse. Letting Cuse bigs out hustle them lol

 

[awfuldan]

I think we would absolutely destroy this Syracuse team.

Just to expound on this - Cuse is 348th in the country in Offensive Rebounds given up per game. We are 3rd in the country in total Offensive Rebounds per game. Not too hard to do the math there.

Plus, we aren't as bad of a 3-point shooting team as one might think. 35% on the season, good for 86th nationally, which is obviously well above average.

 

[UConnSwag11]

Is Banchero overhyped?

 

[Scoe]

Are you scared fate would have us meet them as a tourney 12 seed if they win ACC?

I could totally see that happening, if it happened lol.

 

[uconngb]

Bye Bye U of Canada

 

[UConnSwag11]

Girad blew it at the end

 

[elmcityboy]

this one is over. would have been a "feel good" loss for cuse if they hadn't underperformed all season.

shocking how much better they look with symir torrence in there -- basically the exact same story as richmond last year.

 

[Jaydumo20]

I could totally see that happening.

Ha. Me too. But moot now I guess
