***DUKE VS SYRACUSE OFFICIAL GAMEDAY THREAD***

[SoCal_Dukie3]

Alex is getting after it!!

 

[Duke1783]

Going forward, when Zion returns, is a smaller lineup with AOC starting a bad idea

 

[dbav]

More good D from Javin. Big game for our role players.

 

[dukebluesTX]

AOC playing like a stud

 

[PixelDevil]

Keep it going, keep it going

 

[dbav]

Tough foul on Javin. Went hard for it. I can't fault him for that.

 

[crazyduke3]

Still losing on the boards....

 

[DukeSky85]

Alex also has 5 boards

 

[tclark6]

I know Jack White has had a tough stretch lately and K is sending a message but I feel bad that he’s sitting...just need him to get back in his lane because we’re going to need him down the stretch...

 

[dbav]

How many blocks does Javin have credit for?

 

[Louisville Crazie]

Javin is playing some awesome defense tonight

 

[Hurley22]

Javin has been a beast on defense tonight.

 

[LONMUNU]

I know javin has his limitations but he has played so hard tonight.

 

[Ioliva]

Really have to grind this game out

 

[dbav]

I wish the reaper still had a weird haircut. Embrace the hate, haha.

 

[crazyduke3]

Good defense Javin! He’s protected the rim decently! Good job kid!

 

[dukebluesTX]

Surprised we don't see Vrank more. Last year I thought for sure he would be a Zoubek like presence. Hope it happens someday

 

[germantondevil]

Weird game feel like we should be up by 12-15 right now

 

[Jnood]

Boehiem complains a lot

 

[tclark6]

Is it just me, or is anyone else really not worried about this game? I know the score is super close, but I can't shake this feeling of "we're gonna win no matter what". Maybe it's cause Syracuse really doesn't have one guy who can take over whenever. If it's close at the end, it favors us. Whatever it is, I'm just not worried at all.

Let’s not forget about Battle...he has the ability to take over!

 

[PixelDevil]

So pretty much no Bolden and White for the game. Message sent, I wonder if it'll be received.

 

[denverexpat]

bucket and a stop, then another bucket and we are in pole position

 

[QC Dukie]

Notice how some stop posting when we go ahead? Weird

I don't get the Bolden part. I thought he was playing well lately and showing a lot of effort. I have to think it's something else with him.

Also, I'm thinking it's not a real "message" to Jack. It hasn't been lack of work ethic. Sometimes a break can help. I feel like the message sent stuff seems harsh.

 

[Jnood]

does he put his jacket back on, just in case he needs to run out of it later?

 

[Jnood]

Let’s review it.

 

[dukebluesTX]

Someone please put some glue on Javin's hands.....

 

[Ioliva]

Bilas is really magnifying the calls that go for duke huh? Doesn’t seem to do it against teams duke plays

 

[SoCal_Dukie3]

I’m harder on Javin than most but the kid is playing hard. Now, if they could put “stick um” on his hands....

 

[500HP_Devil]

I love Jack White but I got no problem with him sitting for the duration of this one. Dudes got to find his shot for games at this level.

 

[retiredsoldier]

I see you caught that as well QC. I very seldom post during the game, scared I may miss something, but you hit the nail on the head with that post.

 

[tclark6]

Geez Javin!

 

[crazyduke3]

Dumb foul. Javin cannot catch lobs.

 

[LONMUNU]

Apparently we can only lob the ball to Zion lol.

 

[PixelDevil]

Oh Javin, you had been playing so well.

 

[IPSYCHOSIS]

Has bilas ever criticized the refs in Dukes favor? Curious lol I he does it all game every game and Ibeen never heard it.

 

[SoCal_Dukie3]

And jack must be hurt or sick, or even did something bad off court; I can’t imagine he’d sit the entire game for playing poorly.

 

[VaBlueDevil33]

Enough with the lobs....geez

 

[germantondevil]

Javin kills himself with some stupid fouls

 

[jeffreyvol_rivals16575]

Quit going for that lob! 1-5
