Game Thread [2022-23] Kansas (at Indianapolis)

[aiw]

sucked down the stretch. not worried

 

[DukeNukem05]

Ryan Young with player of the game

 

[Pantone287]

Roach 6/17 with 1 assist 3 turnovers. Proctor should have had the ball way more down the stretch

Really should have gotten Flip the ball going to the rim too, though. Reminded me of our
late-game Zion usage.

 

[aiw]

Young and Grandison were problems

This lose actually doesn't bother me, fully expected us to lose

It bothers me because we with the way the game played out, we should have won.

Also, we have like two opportunities for quality wins in conference.

I’ll always appreciate Roach clutching against MSU/TT last year, but he’s just never gonna be the guy game in and game out

 

[mkvl04]

Dariq will be good

 

[LastHearth]

To be a one possession game with 1 minute left without our best player is a pretty good effort

 

[mkvl04]

Might need some time though unfortunately

 

[best4heisman]

Grandison with no second half minutes was surprising. It's hard to second guess with the run that we went on, but I thought he'd be enough of a fixture for us that Scheyer would tolerate a bad half of basketball.

 

[DurhamSon]

Roach would be an off the bench PG on any Duke team from 1986 to like, 2015. It is what it is

 

[Slap the Floor]

This lose actually doesn't bother me, fully expected us to lose

It actually bothers me a lot because of how we crumbled in the final few minutes. We had no business losing that game.

 

[2001Dukechamps]

Young on the court at any point in the 2nd half was gross. Like SMTTEM mentioned, Scheyer has to explain his fixation with such a net-negative player in a game like this

It drives me crazy how often he loses the ball when he goes to the rim. His good plays are really good, but there's just too high a % of disaster plays for him to be forcing things into the lane down the stretch in games like this.

 

[Dukenation12]

Brutal last 4 mins. Played horrible and still had a chance to win late. Won’t win many games going 3/21 from 3 with 18 TOs. This team should look very different in a month!

 

[DurhamSon]

Missing every goddamn three in the second half except that one Roach heave doesn’t bode well for end of game situations

 

[LastHearth]

Our offense was bad the whole game, the OR saved us, didn't get the OR at the end, that was the difference

 

[best4heisman]

Roach would be an off the bench PG on any Duke team from 1986 to like, 2015. It is what it is

I'm a broken record here but I think that Proctor is (or should be) the point guard. There will be growing pains but he is better at point guard stuff than Roach.

Give the guy more than 3 games before calling it a fixation.

Just the outcome we were hoping for tonight - Duke loss, Roach sucks, Flip OAD
