If Johnson is or was a pg on the college level I’m the second coming of Kobe.

He’s listed at the next level as a Sg/ SF.

If Johnson was such a gifted playmaker it would have been obvious. He handled the ball plenty of times. I'm sure he could do whatever he wanted in high school. He could have developed that skill but he was a 4 month and done.

It was obvious he was our best passer. It's a comfortability thing. Cam Reddish was a ball handler before college but when he got here the ball was taken out of his hands. So when he got here he pressed which caused turnovers. On the NBA level, JR Smith was a one on one player all of his career UNTIL he went to Cleveland and had to be a spot up shooter. Now he looks like he can't handle the ball at all anymore.

So “where you’re from” nobody calls each other out on their bullish—. You post some good stuff but you have this idea that Duke would win more games if you were in charge somehow. Sorry to “weird” out on you I’m not one that opposes any coach k criticism but you act like he’s an idiot sometimes

Agree. Some are acting like he’s a poor mans Jason Tatum I just don’t see it. Quitting on his last two teams is an issue as well as the fact that I’m not sold him going left, his jumper, or anything else basically. Seemed disinterested on defense. What’s scary is if he knew this was his only year of college tape and this is the best he could come up with?

And it has cost him as he continues to slip down the draft.

The point is this mf cried wolf all year about running the pick and roll booo hoo blah blah with Duval ..We were gonna hang a banner if so, whatever. Lol. And in the “pick and roll” orientated NBA he can’t make a roster... He posts some decent stuff, hell I agreed with a couple posts this year from him, but stupid **** comes along with it more times than not.

You definitely have a better point with Cam (although he may have a Duke record for charges in a season). But Johnson was given tons of opportunities to be a playmaker. He was a turnover machine and had no consistency.

I vaguely remember Coach K looking peeved when asked about it so I'm not sure what happened. It happened right before tip off.

I call Coach K out on his terrible coaching when I see it as a terrible coaching move. Then some of you get upset like you’re his wife or family or something. I never said anything about me winning more. You said that. I just so happen to know enough about the game that I can correctly evaluate some things. He did a terrible job this past year and with Zions team.

But you don’t post anything of substance hahaha. You just everyone’s yes man. Never seen you analyze one thing. Just glad to be here huh? I guess I get it. Duval should’ve never come to Duke. Wasn’t his style of play. Everyone knew that. Even he did but he wanted to change his game up. Unbeknownst to him Coach K put him in the corner to further show his weakness. I recall him keeping us in the game against Kansas doing a certain thing...pick n roll. I didn’t say he was the best to ever do it you dumb duck

You’re right. I really don’t. When things are obvious or have already been said why repeat it. “Glad to be here” 😂 What you here for ? To prove you’re the next Duke coach...know all seen all have done all is alll mighty Dachumps here! Get out of your feelings man I was picking...at first
