Duke...

Same reason most people born in Kentucky don't chose Morehead State. Don't be obtuse. If you are from the state you aren't a bandwagon. You're only a bandwagon if you are from Ohio and root for Duke ;).
But let's be honest. You have to love a place called moreHEAD State.
 
Actually any AD worth a fk puts a premium on fans who did not attend the school. These folks are willing to put money into something they have no investment in.
 
So why does a hoosier tiger *** even care about Duke playing zone?

I guess I have a higher standard for supposed lottery picks. A lottery pick IMO should be able to play man defense against guys smaller and less talented than them
 
How in the hell did IU hire Archie Miller as their basketball coach? He didn't graduate from IU nor was he a fan of the Hoosiers growing up! He didn't even live in Indiana! But yet they offered him a coaching position there, holy crap!

Didn’t St K invent the zone defense?

Yeah. Trying to hard here man. Back to the drawing board
 
In 2015 did you think okafor would become a bust in the NBA? He has by the way

You want Duke fans to be upset with what happen to our players once they leave the program? Okafor brought in #5 and Bagley has a chance to bring in #6. Oh, I get it now! Slick.

2015 was a full example of the best team not always winning the tournament.
 
Your first narrative was that Bagley isn't a lotery pick because K switched to zone. What does Okafor have to do with this?

There is evidence that playing zone makes it tougher on players to adjust to the NBA. How many busts has Syracuse had in the NBA? However K coaches to win in college. Not to get players ready for the NBA. I respect that. It's why he's arguably the best ever.

Has Syracuse ever had a player with Bagley's skill? This is seriously a dumb argument. I can tell the OP isn't better than this, but you are.

Oh I'm not talking about Bagley, but the zone in general with it harming development on the defensive end. Bagley has questions there, and the fact you guys have played exclusively zone for the last 2 months + means he will go into the NBA with no improvement there.
 
You have lottery pick talent all over the roster but yet they can’t play man defense against guys that are less talented and smaller than them? They all better learn to play man or every single one of them has g league written all over them.
This is COLLEGE basketball, screw the NBA!!!

As long as K uses him to best help Duke this year, I really don't care. If you are going to college to prepare yourself for the NBA, maybe more than one year would be a better career move. If the NBA rule didn't exist then he would be in the NBA with zero preparation. So I don't see the point in talking about this.
