Duke vs. Notre Dame

Time for Bonzie to look like an NBA all-star like he always does against Duke. I feel like Duke wins regardless.

Hope for a good game. And by good game, I mean Duke winning by 20.






Also, good to have a Duke game thread started by a Duke fan for once.
 
ND will not have an answer for Bagley. My guess if they will try and double him. Maybe bring Torres in to spell Geben/Colson. Will most likely put Rex on Allen.

Two ways ND can win:
  1. Find a way to disrupt Dukes offense and rebound.
  2. Continue their hot 3 point shooting from the 2nd half of last night.
How I feel? I’m excited. I think the ND team is excited after willing theirselves to a win against a great team. Part of me feels like they have found the swagger that took them to two elite 8s in a row, an ACC championship, and won the Maui invitational again. However this is a really really good Duke team and I think it’s going to be a tough matchup for ND as they do not have the personnel to stop Bagley.
 
Cant wait for Farell to get a taste of his own medicine.
 
Allen head whips like a maniac but doesn't really flop like some of the crap Farrell did last night. Didn't he draw a flagrant while flopping? That's impressive.

Farrell doesn’t do anything wrong but make smart basketball plays and hit dagger 3s.

There was nothing wrong with him taking the ball from Clarke as Clarke had turned the ball over and instead of giving up the ball he sat there and whines like a bitch to a ref in an attempt to stall NDs 10-0 run. Then when Farrell took the ball Clarke was an idiot and tried to get in the face of a 5-9 pg and was stupid enough to unnecessarily touch him. Was that a weak tech? Yeah. Should it have been called? Yeah. We can’t have players walking around unnecessarily touching players on the other team when they get upset.

What made me even less on Clarke’s side was his reaction after the game calling Farrell a flopped. Take your loss with class, be a man, and accept responsibility. The ironic thing is that the main reason Clarke got the technical was because he didn’t accept responsibility for charging into Torres and was whining then too.

For some reason people like to hate on Matt Farrell because he not only plays with emotion, but he plays smart. His grandfather died 2 weeks ago so you'd think people wouldn't be trying to attack him as much as they do.

Yes, yes it is impressive when a player draws a flagrant while flopping.
 
Need to shore up the defense, don't think this ridiculous shooting will continue for 40 minutes.
 
Duke is so much better when Duval plays well. As good as the rest of the team is Duval is going to make or break them this March.

Which probably doesn't bode well lol
 
I have no clue how this is a 4 point game right now.
 
It really wasn't worth me bringing it up. For the most part, they are letting them play and aren't really effecting the flow of the game. Which is probably bad news for the second half.

Have you accepted the fact Duke will just have to win in shootouts?

For some reason Duke keeps getting stuck having one guy defending 2 ND players under the basket.

ND just keeps getting wide open shots close to the basket.
 
Colson is just the perfect guy to put in the middle of the zone. Despite some ****ing dumb turnovers Duke showing how quickly they can extend a lead. Hope they can keep it up all second half, really want to play Miami again tomorrow.
