Duke at North Carolina

[DaddyChoc]

2 of the top teams in the country

Entertaining gameplay by Duke so far.

 

[DaddyChoc]

throw it into the post

I gotta say. Tricia Liston can play ball with me anytime...

 

[UConnCat]

Peck and Ward genuinely surprised that Richa Jackson failed to pass the ball to a wide open Liston on the wing. Do your homework. If there is one thing Jackson doesn't do a lot it's pass the ball. Rebecca or Doris would have mentioned that.

Can somebody answer a question for me?

I am not a coach, but why isn't UNC playing full court pressure when Duke is bringing the ball up?
UNC has a deep bench with athletes and Duke has NO PG!

Am I completely in left field with this thought process?

I hope Duke wins. Think there's a chance? They have so so many injuries.

Just turned on the game
Some gosh-awful offensive sequences for both teams.
So much 1 on 1
Finally some ball movement ending with an easy shot for a surprised Mavunga

That's why I'm watching. Should be two equally matched teams competing, but with all of Duke's injuries and adjustments. . .

Name a WCBB in the country that would look good offensively after losing 4 PGs/ball handlers ? How would UCONN look on offense playing without Jefferson, Hartley, Chong, and Banks?

 

[DaddyChoc]

not a great ride into the half for Duke

 

[triaddukefan]

If Duke wins, we would have a rematch with UNC next friday evening in the ACC tourney.... if Duke loses... most likely a matchup with Ga Tech.

 

[triaddukefan]

oh well, the more things change, the more things stay the same

probably get charged for hand-checking and don't want to risk it

Elizabeth Williams.

Geez. Killing her team right now with missed layups.

We are talking the ACC here, and especially UNC - they don't do defense! Takes too much away from their offensive flow.

NC running away with it now. Anyone else switching to the Nebraska-Purdie game?

 

[triaddukefan]

I was at the Wake Forest game, and was thinking to myself that we should win one more game this season. That being the first round of the NCAA's vs a #12 or #13 seed. Now..... sadly..... im not sure we will win that 1st round game.

What a fine poster you are.

3 point game.

 

[Samanthabrown3]

3 point game.

I know! I switched back to Duke-NC during a commercial and couldn't believe it!

Never give up. Guess that's why I'm not a competitive athlete.

Besides, it's Nebraska 12, Purdue 28. Ho hum. Unless they pull a Dukie.

 

[ASweet3781]

What in God's name type of line up does Andrew Calder have in there right now?

 

[ASweet3781]

Calder had DeShields and McDaniel on the bench for a good chunk of that meltdown.

 

[ASweet3781]

McCaullie takes Williams out with 6 mins left after cutting it to 3? Than Duke gives up offensive rebound to McDaniel.

My eyes hurt right now watching these coaching masterminds at work.
