And they provide what? More dribbling? You realize they took 53/81 shots? What made Tre's brother so good at Dook is he had a big man he can feed the post to, he provided ONE consistent ball handler, and made timely shots. RJ needs the ball to be effective, Zion needs the ball to be effective, and Cam is probably the best college player of the three but I don't see him being featured in this offense. I'm not hating. These guys are pros. But they will get embarrassed this season more than you'd imagine. Their only shot of being real good is to be savages on defense. But looking at that bench, I doubt they'll be that. There's probably not a single starter on that team that will make 30% of their threes this year. Keep thinking a senior laden team with two 40% three point shooters and Cam Johnson at 34% won't give this team fits. Not to mention, UNC bigs are better than Bolden. Nas shared the floor with both of those cats on the all star game circuit and walked away as the best player on the court. Coby a walking bucket, so I'll take him over Goldwire any day of the week as the first PG off the bench. It's just a bad matchup. These all star teams that K and Cal are throwing together are cool for winning the offseason. But they're bad matchup fits to win games at a championship level in college.

who else was gonna take shots with jones, reddish out and o'connell knocked out 3 min into the game? you're a fukking idiot. tre will initiate offense as can rj, zion, and reddish, but they don't always have to have the ball in their hands to be effective. goldwire played very serviceably as backup with low mistakes, he just needs to hit the open shot every now and then. little is legit, but otherwise no one at duke is scared of unc. sit the fukk down.

I've heard that narrative before....K fielding all star teams losing double digit games while the team down the road with "no one Dook is scared of" rattled off back to back championship game appearances and a ring. This team can't shoot and they dont have a legit post presence. You all but admitted without their starting 5 "who else was gonna take shots"? Keep relying on freshman legs to get thru a 30 plus game grind without a bench. Cant even rely on a former 5* center to get you a couple buckets against some scrubs?? Meanwhile, Roy out there getting game winning baskets in the tourney outta his former preferred walk on. Dook about to get ran outta the gym. UNC can literally run 7th, Coby, Leaky, Williams, Little, Robinson, Cam, Luke, Garrison, and Manley out there. Dook dont even have enough confidence in their 6th man to give them anything. How many of your top 6 players can realistically shot 35% from 3? How many of your top 6 players can give you a basket with their back to the basket in the paint over true big?

He was. My theory is he doesn’t want to commit to 4 year players because he won’t be there long enough for that :yeshrug: personally to give him this year and next year if we don’t win a ring im ready to move on from him

grayson is the last of a dying breed at duke or any other school for that matter for someone ranked as high as he was or who had a season like he had as a sophomore.
