I'm not one that gets into all that team chemistry stuff. But that Duke team I saw today looks like a team that doesn't like each other breh.

Only undefeated team in the ACC 
no chemistry is what happened. all the injuries set this team back at least 1 month, if this team is still struggling come late Feb. then come talk shyt. I ain't worried yet.I remember when @Basaglia was telling me there was zero chance Bolden would stay in school
@DredScott what happened to that once in a lifetime collection of talent you were telling me about?
It's a weird dynamic man. You can see the tug of war between the vets and the new guys. I don't think some of the vets care for Jayson's style of play much.
The biggest issue is Dook staff trying to run a Team USA 2.0 type program. They are doing a horrible job of development up there and it's really evident in their big man play. Whatever these kids show up with, is what they're leaving with. Everybody out there got the green light, nobody wanna do grunt work, and he failed to recruit for needs (true pg) instead of wants. There's no reason Javin supposed to have that scholarship when you have a gaping hole at pg. This the 2nd year he got caught with his pants down had Thorton not reclassified. I just saw Luke Maye, a preferred walkon, give UNC something (15 rebs) against that FSU front line while Jeter, Giles, and Bolden looked like they didn't belong. Beating people with individual perimeter play only goes so far in college cause everybody can't shoot. Rebounding and defense gets you further and that's Dook's weakness.
