Duke game thread

Cooney simply sucks

He's really really bad in transition. We've been lucky with how good with how good all of our guards lately ahve been good in transition; Ennis, Triche, MCW, Scoop, Dion. Cooney and Kaleb just aren't good at all when it comes to converting.

I think it was a foul but Cooney seemed to embellish it

 

[OttoinGrotto]

It might be a defeatist attitude, but this is exactly the type of officiating shenanigans I dreaded seeing when we came to the ACC and knew we were going to play Duke. It's such a crock.

Does level of competition not matter? Because it should matter that he is playing against the best player in the NCAA

Missing jump hooks that he's fully capable of making regardless of who he's matched up against though. That up and under move he made was great and he missed the wide open 3 footer after it! He's playing spooked.

This is our worst half in a long time...unless it's just me..

Just you. This is a damn good team with the best player in the country exerting it's will on a tired squad.

Tech was worse

When Cooney leads the break I'm actually surprised when it ends in points.

No he didn't. He was fouled on the arm and then was pulled down at the hips with two hands.

As a UVa fan and long time member of the Duke/UNC officials homerism, I can tell you, I feel your pain... it is unbelievable just how much favoritism is shown to these two teams...

 

[Cootface]

Why exactly aren't we getting gbinije shots?

 

[two3zone]

Why exactly aren't we getting gbinije shots?

He's getting the Cooney defense.

 

[NineOneSeven]

If we could finish we would be winning

 

[NineOneSeven]

so many chances for a big cooney shot

 

[WaHoos4Me]

Terrible shot Cooney... slow down at let the game come to you...

 

[JAXCUSE]

Missed opportunity...
But Cooney looked like he might have been glanced...

 

[JAXCUSE]

Roberson is playing a real solid game.

 

[tptcuse]

Way to battle, Roberson!

 

[Libero2]

Still hanging in. We get a bounce or two, or make a shot and you never know down the stretch

 

[Cootface]

He's getting the Cooney defense.

Then maybe he should start taking the cooney shots.
