Did you not see the Louisville game? We were beyond abysmal for 28 minutes

Yes I saw the game. I thought Louisville played insane; could do no wrong - way beyond anything they've done in any other game. I didn't think we played nearly as bad as they played out of their heads for 30 minutes. Then Duke went nuts.

The first 12 minutes of this game were the worst I think we've played all year, We played bad D (losing players all over the place) and were not passing or moving on offense - just going one-on-one (especially Reddish).

I'm fine with the team other than Reddish, dude has some mental issues and is a diva when he doesnt need to be. If he comes out on fire and contributes I'll eat my words and still not like him.

Zion doesn't seem to have the same "hops" that he did last night. It could be that fall he took and bad landing.

I looooove the play from Vrank!

I know it isn’t much and it isn’t even pretty.. but this kid has barely played one “meaningful” minute his entire career at Duke.. he was put in this game only because Bolden is hurt and Javon got 2 fouls..

And he stepped the F#?$ up and did his job this half!

We really need to pull ahead for a change..put some game pressure on UNC for once instead of us always burning energy trying to get back into the game..

This will be interesting to see the second half lineup. Almost sure it will be the same that started the game.

Cam has to be a spot up shooter only for the foreseeable future. He turns the ball over so frequently on his drives, it kills our offense and now he's getting in foul trouble too easily.

We need him to be a 15-18pt scorer every night but he somehow isnt that consistent - some games he just goes missing, others he is on fire.

Honestly, I didn't think Javin played poorly. He missed a layup but he was all over the boards. I'll take that from him.

He's just such a spaz. You can't really rely on him because he's bound to dribble the ball off his foot, slip and foul someone, miss a wide open layup or fumble the ball out of bounds.

Makes you wonder why we haven’t gone a little deeper earlier in the year. For a minute lol

He’s still jumping pretty good. But I would think he may be a little sore or “tired legs” since last night was his first game in 2+ weeks and he’s playing back to back competitive games for the first time since the very beginning of the season.

Can you give some examples of him having mental issues or acting like a diva? He has been inconsistent offensively but I’ve never seen any lack of effort or diva like behavior from him at all.

He's got a limited role, embraces it, and works his butt off at it. Get behind that.

I really thought Reddish would be a more pass oriented player this year while still scoring some. But he's lost contact as a team player at this point. His early season D has all but disappeared. He's falling in the draft like an anvil at this point.
