[2018-19] Virginia, at Pittsburgh, Georgia Tech, at Notre Dame, St. John's

I'm OK with UVA winning it all

They are smashing VT by 22 at the half

 

[TS9]

I wonder if Duke will get to 22 points by halftime Saturday.

 

[Thain]

so what happens if we beat UVA without Tre on Saturday?

Don't worry. We won't.

 

[StopThePumpFakesShav]

We scored exactly 22 last year at Cameron in the first half.

 

[rome8180]

UVA was probably better than us even with Tre. But at least having a great PG to maximize our talent advantage might have given us a chance.

We are now going to get slaughtered by a ruthlessly efficiency machine.

At least in the graphic that they'll show later in the year bifurcating Duke's performance with and without Tre Jones for tournament resume purposes, we can put this in the loss column for "without."

 

[DukeCrow]

There's the silver lining

 

[DukeCrow]

Hopefully, there's some reversion to the mean on Saturday. I mean, I don't want us to lose by 30. We keep it under 20, and it's a respectable performance.

This is my worry. We have gone from being competitive to most likely being beaten by 20+ points. Fuck the Duke curse.

Same.

Flying to Vegas that day, can't wait to put everything I own on UVA.

 

[SeanMayTriedToEatMe]

Lots of slow-developing Barrett midrange in this one while Zion does the dirty work to rebound Barrett's misses and pass back out to Barrett, while doing everything on defense to erase all the penetration allowed by Barrett. Very, very excited to see this dynamic unfold.

 

[SeanMayTriedToEatMe]

I do truly believe Duke will win this game if Zion has 50% usage. I just don't think K will allow that in a million years, since Barrett's parents would scold him like a child afterward, and K can't handle that.

 

[physicsfactor]

I think Zion will foul out with at least 3 fouls being offensive fouls.

 

[Pantone287]

I think Zion's leg will fall off and he'll die on the court.

Are we going to break bread?
