Syracuse @ Duke 1-14-19 7pm

[mr.hockey4242]

Jones is the most important Duke freshman

And Jack white is the Duke opponents most important player

OT here we come......

 

[DJ]

Duke came in a -17 favorite.....LOL.

 

[mr.hockey4242]

1. Why is Jack White guarding Battle every time??

2. Why did Battle not just drive around him???

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Barrett will get his ass beat in the NBA if he chucks like this

Always does when I watch

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Jack White lmfao

Duke have 2 starters out, one out entire game and another hurt early in game and not back since then.

Jack White lmfao

Training to be a part time bricklayer tonight.

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Lol

Pretty sure they couldn't see in the future and knew Reddish would not play and Jones would get hurt a couple of minutes into the game....Duke wouldn't have been a 17 point favorites knowing those 2 will pretty much not play

DJ always try to act like the smartest guy in the room after the fact lol. Dude made no comment about this until the game was all but done. Typical

This is the problem with this Duke team. They're relying so much on these 4 freshman so if 1 or 2 goes down, they're in major trouble

This! ^^ Also this was IN Cameron Indoor.... That played into it as well. I don't know what they were doing the last 40 seconds of OT that was terrible. Cuse is a talented young team and they came to play tonight. Tip O Da cap to them

 

[redseat]

@douggie highly disappointing game tonight but they should be happy with how they played (minus those last 40 seconds of OT) with the team they had...

You had your scare Saturday but tonight I think you will Cruise through the Cuse even though I'm not brave enough to lay the 17 points. Like you said, you've got prepare for all of them in this conference.

I've never had a problem admitting I'm wrong when I'm wrong and I sure was wrong about Duke taking care of business tonight. I'm just glad that I remained brave and didn't put any real money on this game.

 

[douggie]

Congrats to the Cuse, they deserved the win. They hit the shots they needed and Duke missed the shots they had. Jack White was jack TIGHT as he got his first career start due to the Reddish illness, and JW couldn't hit the Ocean standing on the end of the pier. RJ Barrett had to move to PG after Tre Jones was injured and he just isn't a top of the key facilitator. Syracuse beat Duke tonight plain and simple. Boeheim gives K fits every single game they face off. That's why HE is a HOF coach too!

Anyway, I hope Duke plays better against Virginia or they will get embarrassed Saturday.

As much as I dislike Duke, this can really be said about any team in the country if they lose 2 of their 4 best players. I think teams like Duke and Gonzaga are better equipped to handle a situation such as this, but any team is going to struggle if they lose 2 of their top scorers. They just so happen to be freshmen for Duke.

We're not even at the midway point in the conference schedule and this ACC is already getting crazy with not only Duke losing at home last night but also Florida State losing at Pittsburgh last night. We might even have more surprises tonight.

ESPN headline is still all about Zion instead of Syracuse winning. Lmao
