The Poojer Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 We are going to need this kind of determined play tonight!!!!!! 1 Quote
The Poojer Posted January 15, 2019 Posted January 15, 2019 What a shot. I can't believe Syracuse got back into this game 1 Quote
Steptide Posted January 15, 2019 Posted January 15, 2019 Syracuse playing they should've been all year long tonight 1 Quote
Buffalo716 Posted January 15, 2019 Author Posted January 15, 2019 Knew the boys could pull it out! Now expect a bad loss... it’s Syracuse after all ? heck of a win 1 Quote
Johnny Hammersticks Posted January 15, 2019 Posted January 15, 2019 Got all three things tonight we need to be a tourney team. 1. A contribution from Frank Howard. He was HUGE in the 2nd half. Scored, I believe, 8 or 9 in a row, played awesome defense, and ran the offense. 2. CHUKWU!! He didn’t play great, but had a few great moments. I believe 17 boards?! Those free throws in OT? Wow. 3. Perimeter shooting. Enough said. In the words of Clark W. Griswold....”If I woke up tomorrow with my face sewn to the carpet, I wouldn’t be more surprised than I am right now.” 2 Quote
Bray Wyatt Posted January 15, 2019 Posted January 15, 2019 I was worried at the start and was confident we could win at half time and was sure of it in ot, what a roller coaster!! Duke even had their home cooking with the refs lol I hope we push the pace like we did tonight for the rest of the year Quote

Couple phantom calls and a couple of make up calls but I thought it was a pretty fairly called game Quote
PromoTheRobot Posted January 15, 2019 Posted January 15, 2019 Will that will drop Duke all the way down to #2. Quote

Edit: oh and that charge on battle All were pretty obvious imo Edited January 15, 2019 by Bray Wyatt Quote

But the Injury to Tre Jones is really going to hurt this Duke team for a while. Sprained shoulder. He’s done for a while. They’re not the same team without him. Will be interesting to see how they respond vs UVA. 1 minute ago, row_33 said: Duke was without two key starters Yeah, but they still had Barrett and Williamson on the court, the consensus #1 and #2 overall picks in the next draft. Plus how many 5* players? The Cuse currently has none. Even Battle was a 4* guy. Duke should still have beaten Cuse handily tonight at home. Syracuse just played an exceptional game. Quote

I don’t care who they lost, the replacements for them are still better than anything Georgia tech had plus they still had two lottery picks playing and it’s not like they played terrible either. 1 Quote

To be fair Battle lost his 5* ranking at the end of his SR year lol he was 2 spots out at the end iirc big hand to Battle who played like a guy who came back for a reason. He was a beast today... he has always had a tremendous pull up jumper round of applause for our Slovakian friend Marek who took a charge from Zion and get knocked out pretty much ? Quote

That took either balls or stupidity not sure which lol Zion is an animal, no one that big should be able to do what he does, and how is he only 18? Dudes face is 18 but that body is an nba big man vet Quote

LB3 Posted January 15, 2019 Posted January 15, 2019 Big road win for a team that's been struggling to find it's identity. Battle was outstanding. Quote
