[GT11]

Mods please for the love of God rename this thread to 12/2 - MBB vs. Duke so we can win the game.

It'll be on The CW but get to McCamish and be loud if you can.

I've got to add the "-" to the WBB game threads. Need that to get back on the winning track.

Why was Dansby Swanson there rooting for Duke? Didn’t he go to Vandy?

Just a bandwagon dude like most of their fans.

Seemed they made their runs when Ndongo was out. I'm not a fan of +/- (plus/minus) as it can often be misleading, but today his impact was accurate. He was a beast on both ends of the court.

yep.

yep, some of the player ratings were WEIRD, hard to explain

 

[alagold]

Wow! the addition of 2 new players like Ndongo and the PG (9 asst,3 TOs) made a HUGE difference.Hard to believe they are so young and play that well. Ndongo had amazing stats-- 9-11, (with a 3) FOUR blocks, 5 rebs, asst--All-conf stats . I hope they can carry that play on the road.

Dennis Scott is pleased:

I just read that shortly after the game was over that CDS headed down to Wheeler to watch a few recruits. Man, we have a relatively young core. Let’s keep adding.

Great play design

Shout out to the home crowd in McCamish today. The Thrillerdome came to life! Students were great and section 110 was right there with them. There was a pretty good dook contingent in the building, but the play of the GT team kept them quiet most of the time, and when they did try to come to life the GT crowd wasn’t having it and shut them down. So much fun! Way to go jackets!

 

[dtm1997]

That Mitchell technical was such a key call. Ndongo had just gotten hurt, and Duke was on a run. Huge momentum change.

**** dook.

 

[GTNC72]

A good day on the Flats. The dookies and dawgs both lost.

CDS wants it there every game. It really does make a difference in the game result. Great defensive energy all game today, but especially on that final possession.

Keep winning and they will come. I am equally thrilled and baffled by the last two games after the Cincy debacle.

That's college basketball man. Sh*t happens all the time. Nothing surprises me any more.

 

[Gtbowhunter90]

Despite a ton of turnovers, the boys managed to hang in there and get a seriously huge win. Im very pleased with CDS so far. Are we back??????

Well, that was their first road game against a team that's probably a little better than people think and they layed an egg, happens

 

[Techwood Relict]

God damn I would have loved to watch this game. Wire to wire middle finger

Whole game be like...... kicking dooks @$$ is awesome

We had 12 turnovers vs Duke. Last year we averaged 11 per game and 2 years ago we averaged 13 per game. I suspect the numbers will drop over time and against lesser opponents.

Gotta get rid of the no look passes, and by no look I mean on the receiving end. We were the better team today and our big men were better than theirs and it's not even a debate. The Mitchell call was huge but he's an @$$hole and they took advantage of our lack of chemistry or it wouldn't have even been close so f-em . Such a good game. My heart was in my throat the last 5 minutes and I wasn't in the mood for a moral victory
