He got you there.

Zero chance we win the title in 15 without him. Was he the most important part? Absolutely not but he won us games.

I think the problem was/is too often the other players just stand around on offense when Duke has guys like Jabari, Okafor, or Bagley. Ball and player movement dies. I don’t think it’s a problem with those players themselves but more of an issue with the coaches not figuring out how to fit them into a more modern and multi-option offense.

Yeah, I can see that and it's definitely on the coaches to do that. Would be different if these were 30yr old pros.

Gerald Henderson and Austin Rivers-led offenses were fucking painful to watch

And yet those 2 gave us 2 of the most memorable moments in duke basketball history

This video doesn't cover the obsolescence of Okafor's skill set, but otherwise it's a good take. I enjoy this Youtube channel overall.
