“Duke might go 40-0”
“They playa pretty weak out of conference schedule and the ACC isn't going to be as good as usual.”

They say curiousity killed the cat..in this case Duke killed the cat, and I was curious!I'm not sure why anyone would even go over there.
You will not have the 3 best players on the floor. Especially in November.
Reddish isn’t even as elite as Barrett and Zion. It’s not a big 3, it’s a big 2 and a really good freshman. So y’all need to stop with that bs.
Duke is a 2 man show and both players will take the bulk of shots. ion wants to be a guard as does Barrett. Let’s see if you can keep your paid assassin Zion Under the goal because of you can’t, you’ll lose a lot of games this year toward March.
And good luck on defense. You have no go to defenders at all.
And that Canada trip was a joke. And Zion Williamson is still yet to play real competition in his life. Can’t wait to see the look on his face when those lanes aren’t wide open. If he can’t dunk he’s useless.
I’m glad K used Nike to chase Cal, you idiots had the blueprint to win many titles during the OAD era and K’s ego got
In the way. And it won’t matter, because he’s about to retire and UK is going to run the show for another decade or more. And we’ll have all of the nba players and recognition that comes with it. Duke is the next Indiana.
It’s going to be fun. Hold on to that bandwagon or you might be wearing another shade of blue in a few years.
But we do not want you. Duke bandwagon fans are not allowed to
Jump on ours.
Better pray those officials create an untouchable environment for Zion or he’s gonna be in foul trouble all year.
There sure is a lot over there ...I feel bad for the actually .1% that have sense...hahhaThat Morgousky guy is an absolute douchebag. SO angry, and sure that K is a cheater and Duke is cheating and we couldn’t win without refs on our side and literally every possible hateful line about Duke you can imagine. Just an absolutely hate filled clown; one of the worst Duke haters BBN has.
I think I saw that hahahHeh, not to drag politics in, but that Morgousky guy literally posted that UK lost because Cal is a liberal.
Wtf does that even mean?
The delusional hate is SO strong over there.
UNC fan here. What do you guys think the line will be for that game? I’m thinking it will be a pick em and some easy money to win by taking UK
I saw these posts on RR and after seeing these posts I went and checked yesterday’s scores to see how other ACC teams did on opening day. I just glanced as I scrolled through the scores and I don’t remember seeing where any ACC teams lost but I do remember seeing where 2 SEC teams lost. One being Kentucky of course and the being Florida and both lost to ACC teams. We beat Kentucky as we all know and FSU beat Florida. If I’m remembering correctly I believe I read either on the main basketball board or RR that Kentucky and Florida were predicted to be the top 2 teams in the SEC this season.“Duke might go 40-0”

No, he's not a d-bag, I'm on Rafters more than here and he's generally a decent dude. Obviously not after last night's game. In general that board is more tolerant of fans from other schools than any other board, including this one.That Morgousky guy is an absolute douchebag.

I agree with you. He’s an absolute POS! Prolly has no job! He’s prolly just some loser that sits at home and try’s to be a computer warrior because that’s the only thing he’s good at.That Morgousky guy is an absolute douchebag.

Rafters also has the most melodramatic fans, truly schizophrenic. I'm slightly ashamed to admit than I spent a good 2 hours last night, clicking from thread to thread, chuckling and wallowing in their misery.

( ) was that a realized or unrealized troll? LmaoYou guys are still incredibly talented and will be a threat to make the Final 4 and potentially win it all ((((if Duke gets upset.))))
I saw a few crying. Probably would have been a lot more crying, but we beat them so bad, there was zero shock factor.I wonder how many Kentucky fans cried at the game last night? They sure were in tears after Wisconsin beat them in 2015, BBN? more like Big Cry Baby Nation.
I don't know guys, I've went over there to read some of their posts. They don't seem so bad to me. Sure, you have the one's with blinders on. We all do. But check out the thread, "What caused us to look so bad?" Very honest answers. As were the other threads I checked.
There is no one I've seen that comes close to thr's clown group, led by the head of the asylum, the one and only Guru Gary.
This may be true only due to how the game turned out. If we had beat them by a few points, it would be an entirely different scene.I don't know guys, I've went over there to read some of their posts.

Trying to come to terms with that asz whooping heheh5 3pt that herro missed? If they go in. "If" now. That means he had better talent than zion . Look at the stats. Same goes for keldon. Barrett was derailed by keldon several times. Barrett got some of his points at free throw line . took not quite double attempts. But near it. Herro had 10-12 pts left to scratch head. The gap isnt wide. Jones didnt even really outplay any of our guards . not even greene honestly. Greene just threw up 5 wild shots very quick into shotclock. That duke scored almost everytime on lol. Reddish was the tetter totter here. Washington total left alot to wonder yet again. Final score sucked. They were hot. But 6 pts from barrett were tipouts on bad rebounding. Where he could set his feet. Something id hope he be able to do being projected #1. I will say this tho. If there is a talent gap so to speak. It looked to be in the area of length (barrett) strength (zion) reddish (ballheady). Keldon is all that too lol. Hell barrett walked few times. Cause keldon just as strong. I think quicker too tbh. This ky has 1 big problem. "Speed" that hasnt hurt too many nba players become superstars. Just saying lol.
Wait. Seriously.. that loser is a teacher?!Nope, he absolutely is not. Rafters was the first and only Rivals board I was on for a long, long time. I was always really careful and respectful there. Got along with most folks. Not that guy... he was always so, so angry at Duke and anything related to Duke. He is convinced Duke is the dirtiest program around, that K is a giant *****, that there are no legit Duke fans, etc etc. He has some BS reason why every Duke accomplishment isn’t legit. Any time I posted he would come in, guns blazing (literally sometimes... he used to talk about how his whole family is gunsmiths and he basically wished he could kill me in a duel or something.). And he has a job. He is a teacher, scarily enough. But he talks about absolutely hating his job and wanting to get out of teaching. Not sure if he has.
And no, Rafters is not. Well, the moderators are, because they basically don’t moderate. But I’ve seen you trying to fight the good fight over there, and still you have poster after poster go after you. I think I have more posts there than I do here or on the national board. While eventually a lot of Rafters posters relaxed and saw that I wasn’t coming to fight, there was this solid core of guys who could never do that.
No question this is partially correct. There really isn't a talent gap between the teams. They have the best two players for sure, Keldon might be the 3rd best player in the game, but after the top 2 or 3 it's a royal blowout on talent in UK's favor. UK has plenty talent to win the game and it was the horrible shot selection and turnovers that caused the blow out.
The problem is that still doens't explain the absolutely awful defense. This has become a reoccurring pattern under Cal who oddly enough prided himself on defense previously. Since the 2015 team exited stage left Cal's teams have been nothing short of pathetic on defense. Cal has been getting ungodly athletes like Fox and Monk that can do amazing things athletically and yet an 90 year old man can take them off the dribble and get to the basket. On ball defense is so bad it's unbelievable. And it's been bad for 4 years now. Defensive rotation is non existent. And we haven't had a shot blocker since WCS and KAT left. I honestly don't understand how such incredibly athletic players can be beaten off the dribble so easily. There is clearly some sort of system breakdown going on that needs to be fixed. Nobody should get uncontested layups against us, even Duke. No excuse for that.
Keldon had what 23 points? On heck of lot less attempts. Didnt even shoot the ball very well either. Not that i totally disagree that it cant be portrayed as talent. Ya putting a ball in basket does count as talent . absolutely. But i seen rebounding problem. And shots in 5-6 sec rush lead to atleast 25 quick points by the big 3 at duke. We had missed 7 bad shots when we were down 12 points or so. 5 of em were 3pt attempts that their god almighty talent didnt block lol. Early in shotclock = no time to focus on getting rebound or getting back. Cool thing about the above the rim mode . is they dont skip to commercial. They showed ky timeouts close to the huddle. Cal was screaming get back, get back. Slow down. Run these plays. Reid kept saying it on court . Seen like 5-8 different plays total drawn up differently in the timeouts. Camera real close.
