I don’t even think losing Hurt is bad..he’s only as good as his three point shot.
If he’s making it he’s valuable on the floor...if not...not so much imo

I feel like Ice Cube is watching our team and saying Y'all ain't never got two things that match. Either y'all got Kool-aid, no sugar. Defenders but no shooters...

I’m still waiting to see any offensive movements or sets...four games in.

We are really good at isolation basketball.

James Harden would love us.

We are playing 3 on 5 on offense with moore and goldwire in there together...neither are a threat at all...and we're already limited

Ha! we know we are in trouble if our offense is Joey driving to the hoop! Good for him for trying though!

New drinking game:

Drink every time you see a covid related cancellation at the bottom of the screen.

I don’t understand Goldwire. We won’t develop anything if he’s running the team for 30 minutes. He’s a great energy guys and to give guys a breather. But yeah...when he’s in the floor it’s like running offense with four.

Reminds me of the Tyler Thornton days.

We. Aren’t. Good.

Holy crap this isn’t fun. Barely setting up an offense. Forcing stuff up. Zero scorers on the floor with Hurt out.

I need Pat Baldwin to commit like now and suit up at halftime. Even on one good ankle he’s the best shooter on the team.

Amazing how Duke used to have players who could shoot the three. Now? Hardly ever get good shooters.

I don’t understand how Duke either quit recruiting shooters or missed on shooters but good lord they don’t have an outside consistent threat on the bench. It’s unreal that this is where Duke basketball is now.

Look Johnson is gone except it. At this point I’m sitting here wondering has K not lost his marbles. It’s like, just keep playing I’ll sit here and watch you guys. Seriously we have no offense no defense and no scoring options.

it’s so crazy how coach k can’t see that problem . He’s down to go to a zone to fix the defense but change the offense, nah.
