adminbaberuth Posted January 13, 2011 Report Posted January 13, 2011 Florida St ranked? Leading Duke late
Ruckdad Posted January 17, 2011 Report Posted January 17, 2011 I love Duke! Have since I was about 10 years old. They are definitely beatable though. No real big man and the floor leader Kyrie Irving may just be done for the year.
CRUSHCOACH Posted January 18, 2011 Report Posted January 18, 2011 I like Duke myself. But if they don't find them a BIG man in the middle, they're gonna be in trouble all year long. Hard to depend on shooting 3's to win games.
CThoops Posted January 21, 2011 Report Posted January 21, 2011 Oh come on.. You win some.. you lose some.. Did everybody write them off because they lost on the road in ACC play? ::) Im not a Huge Duke fan, but I love watching them play.. A big man would be great and really make them a dominant force to compete against, but they have great chemistry. Best basketball team in the country still because of defense and experience on the floor.. Cant ask for better players at their position than N. Smith and K. Singler ;D
Ruckdad Posted January 21, 2011 Report Posted January 21, 2011 Totally agree - but they lack a point guard. Kyrie Irving made this team elite and dominant. With Irving on the floor - no way they lose to Florida State. I still think they are the favorites to win the tourney as there really aren't any dominant big men in the college game right now.

baddog Posted February 2, 2011 Report Posted February 2, 2011 What's not to like about Duke?I'm a UT fan, but I love to watch Duke basketball. If they played, I'd pull for UT, but I pull for Duke the rest of the time.

baddog Posted February 5, 2011 Report Posted February 5, 2011 Duke tearing NC State a new one. Duke is so well coached.
