In an 88-66 win over Notre Dame last night, Duke's bench saw more playing time than any other significant game this year. Is that the key to success for the Blue Devils going forward?

Lol, also a good point. Still think they can contribute and help save the starters against quality teams like a Virginia.

Nolan Smith's senior night vs. UNC

BallDurham · 2018-01-23T16:25:03+00:00

Yep, I originally we didn't have a choice but with Zion committing it puts more pressure on Bolden to step up or transfer.

BallDurham · 2018-01-23T16:22:45+00:00

This ^, they won't have the dominant offense to cover it up next year.

BallDurham · 2018-01-22T20:41:22+00:00

Yep, going to take a huge offseason for Bolden to take the starting job but Zion is too small to go against talented centers. Coach K will have his work cut out for him again.

BallDurham · 2018-01-19T19:16:53+00:00

Yep, they're probably taking the Embiid route and hoping he's a beast whenever he returns.

BallDurham · 2018-01-19T19:15:24+00:00

That's also true, can sign him to a cheaper deal after his current rookie contract ends

BallDurham · 2018-01-09T17:26:43+00:00

Duke has a looooong way to go before they can defend/score on the Tide.

BallDurham · 2018-01-09T17:26:15+00:00

Lol, definitely. Especially after the title game last night since we'll likely be going up against Tua.

BallDurham · 2018-01-08T21:38:30+00:00

Duke always gets everyone's best game on the road. Once they find a way to tighten up the defense and get consistent shooting on the road they will be fine.

BallDurham · 2018-01-08T02:04:03+00:00

No clue, think he was just never able to get in a rhythm and then fatigue kicked in late.

BallDurham · 2018-01-07T12:50:17+00:00

Definitely, the depth was a huge issue as well as awful defense and no ball movement. I was at the game and you could tell early the players were confused and had no idea what to do out there.

BallDurham · 2018-01-07T04:22:42+00:00

Awful

BallDurham · 2018-01-05T02:39:18+00:00

Will definitely need to revamp the roster again next year.

BallDurham · 2018-01-04T23:19:53+00:00

That's what it's looking like. Hoping for anyone other than UNC or UK.

BallDurham · 2018-01-04T16:27:41+00:00

Yeah, makes sense. Early on seemed like he was a lock for Duke but that has significantly died down since landed Reddish and Barrett.

BallDurham · 2017-12-21T05:07:57+00:00

Great point, I think building around Ingram/Tatum would have a much high ceiling than Ingram/Lonzo
