Dukes are favored by 6 or 6½; O/u is 134½.

The Dukes are in a must win situation today if they want to turn this season around.

Hronsky 2 minutes really Coach? What he missed a defensive stop. EDWARDS 29 minutes 1-9 3 pointers 1 assist. Rosier 34 minutes 2 assist 2-10 3 pointers. Find a point guard Dinkins or DiMichele. This is unbelievably a disaster. AAU basketball at its worse. Step up Coach

There is a belief that when some players are recruited through the portal they are guaranteed playing time and if that playing time is not provided word gets around to the future recruits and it hurts the overall recruiting. I hope that is not what we are seeing with Edwards.  I hope he is just in a funk and Coach is trying to let him play his way out of it.  But I’m of the mind he needs to sit and let someone else  try.

Re: Game Thread - Hampton Pirates (Cayman Islands Classic)

Right on Iron Duke, like I said in the past Rozier is effective for 10-12 minutes off the bench and that should be it.  That is how he was used last year when we made our run.  It's the staff's fault if they didn't recruit a true PG, but Dinkins will suffice if you ask me.  This is getting ugly and from what I've seen so far it is hard to imagine that we beat anyone in the A-10 as of today.

Doesn’t look like Eli is playing today.

Re: Game Thread - Hampton Pirates (Cayman Islands Classic)

Picked up right where they left off yesterday….  3 points scored in 5 minutes. I’m trying to figure out what they are trying to do offensively???

Why did David Dixon get ejected??? That is truly one of the worst calls I have ever seen. There needs to be an explanation.

Agreed. I was commending Dave on walking away from that “tackle”. Horrible call. And a thought that the Hampton player deserved a Flagrant 1 and not an ejection. Dixon should have been shooting 2 there.

Re: Game Thread - Hampton Pirates (Cayman Islands Classic)

Damn, just following along here, doesnt sound good if Dave is out now.
Barre needs to play the whole game now???
GW beat these chops by 28.
Is there anywhere to listen online?

Re: Game Thread - Hampton Pirates (Cayman Islands Classic)

Again why is Horansky on the bench. He played solid defense.Second question why is Rozier playing the #2 spot. Edward’s disappeared. Finally

Re: Game Thread - Hampton Pirates (Cayman Islands Classic)

That was a long first half. Those skip passes are scary but they are working against this team for open shots. Only 9 3s attempted is a great sign. Still fuming about Dixon. Happy they got the flagrant call right own the foul against Corbett at least.

Ray Goss and Noah Buono are announcing from somewhere in PA, watching the stream. Let me know if this link works for you.

Edwards may not have disappeared; his headband did so he's harder to spot 

Also, is the Grand Cayman nursery ward sitting behind the Dukes bench??

Re: Game Thread - Hampton Pirates (Cayman Islands Classic)

Jake and Dinkins need to stay in there and keep scoring . Driving on these guys is playing off. Most of their team can get into foul trouble early this half.

Re: Game Thread - Hampton Pirates (Cayman Islands Classic)

Ironduke81, I don’t understand the Hronsky snub; I’m having a hard time watching Corbett on both ends of the floor (and his crappy form in free throws).

Rozier defensive liability down the stretch. Good coaching sub offense defense… Will see

Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue.

Team is completely lost.  Hope they find their way.  Really sad after the momentum from last season.

Re: Game Thread - Hampton Pirates (Cayman Islands Classic)

No excuse for the coaching staff not having this team hit FT's. We are at the bottom of all D-1 in FT's. We just lost to a bottom team that we were picked to beat.
