Duke fans...honest question about Coach K

Just calling em like I see em.

Obviously the Zion injury impacts Duke significantly. We all get that. No one would suggest otherwise.

But most other teams go through really bad injuries too. Look at Kansas with Embiid and Azubuike. The difference is, we don’t have Kansas posters telling us how they are the unluckiest bunch ever.

Q and Afam don’t have to remind us of Zion’s injury every week. We all follow college basketball. We all know he’s hurt.

Although to be fair, some MSU fans have been pointing that out about their team lol

So you don’t think Zion’s and Boldens injuries effected the results. Why is that an excuse? It’s a fact. Your choice to believe it or not.
Duke had the advantage of Knowing that Zion wasn't going to play. They had three weeks to prepare without him. Bolden's injury sucked, but I am not sure it altered much of the game plan.
 
I think Bolden being out wouldn't hurt against UNC. He is a matchup in our favor IMO. Obviously, Zion is a matchup nightmare for anyone.

Anyone who allows afamu to dictate how they view other Duke fans on this board is as, if not more pathetic than he is.

So everyone should ignore it. Yeah ok. Coming from one of the most underachieving schools seems to have effected your thinking.

Your season just ends sooner than most every year.

2 of the 3 Duke fans who posted here (and 2 of the 2 that were continuing any sort of conversation) were making excuses based on injuries. What was said was applicable to those in this thread and what they were saying.
 
That GE was not responding appropriately to the whining that was taking place? Nonsense. He was right on target.
If he was responding appropriately, he would have specifically addressed the particular posters he was referring to and not said Duke fans. Which he did in his response to me, but not in the post that I responded to. It was not an attack on @GE Nole , just a statement.

Do we not assume when we address things in a thread it is meant for those posting in that thread? I feel it has always been that way. Why would we intend for something to be meant for people who are not an active part of a thread?

Don’t forget the Dude. He’s as big an embarrassment as Q or Phil

If any other team had this problem you’ll say deal with it. Playing that if games makes you look small but you were already that way for a while.
 
It's what he does. He has turned out to be more of an embarrassment to Duke fans on this board than any RR poster is to the Kentucky fans on this board.

I don’t even mind if he attacks FSU. We have one Final Four, plenty to attack.

But what he said wasn’t even accurate. There’s 353 teams in D1 college basketball and FSU makes some form of postseason every season. At least be make an accurate statement.

You are just as big a troll. And a stalker. On each and every Duke thread providing your BS Duke stereotypical thoughts.


You post stupid comments, you’ll get called on it. I guess you can’t help being stupid huh?
 
In summation, “We’ve only lost the last 4 years because of injury, and a bad call by the refs.” Lol.

I read it more as “While some people are trying to make K sound like he has really underachieved in the OAD era, in reality Duke was a few serious injuries and a missed shot away from nobody having any issue with K and OAD,” but I guess you’ve gotta do you.

And what really makes me smile is how many times you comment at me about how or what I post. It’s personsl with you. :)
 
Whoa, I just caught up on this thread. What a mess. Has it been tougher to post without trolling and personal shots overrunning the convo or what?

That is because as soon as I post something the afam u fans attack. They love me. You should read Awill’s personal messages he sends me. Classic.

Well, that makes one. Eight people read it like I did, apparently.
 
'Ole Roy probably has the best approach to recruiting because his style of play has remained the same since his days at KU. He wants his bigs to run fast, and have good hands, points who fly, at least one shutdown defender, and usually 1-2 potential. He has a pretty good eye for his short, and long term, needs.

Coach K seems to reinvent himself every 10 years or so. Not saying his current approach is wrong, but he has looked tired this year.
 
Listen to Duke fans and you’d think no other team had injuries.

Show me which Duke fan has said NO other team except Duke has had to deal with injuries. Funny how a question to Duke fans involves so many other fans. Is it not a fact a lot of K’s OAD players have been injured at some point throughout the season? Weren’t you the FSU fan that complained about FT disparity against Duke from 2006? Seems like the only fans that get to complain are non Duke fans.

Bahahaha. I haven’t posted that much about Zion’s injury.

It only counts when Duke does it, duhhhh
 
I guess when you spit the truth, the personal attacks follow.

Struck a nerve. Who cares
