The final game of the season takes place Saturday, March 8th at the Chaifetz Arena, 8:00 PM EST. Tristan Freeman’s 3 keys: Would be nice to play well and get a win to enter tourney on a high note. I'm pretty sure Jimerson is going to set the record for senior days today. Is he an MD yet? I'm pretty sure Jimerson is going to set the record for senior days today. Is he an MD yet? Chad Baker says “Hold My Beer” Disastrous first shift for Rozier. That block, layup, & FT by Eli was AWESOME! I'm pretty sure Jimerson is going to set the record for senior days today. Is he an MD yet? NAH after 6 years - he will probably "leave school at the conclusion of basketball season to "prepare for the draft" WHILE BEING A FEW CREDITS SHY OF HIS DEGREE" This pace is fast. This pace is fast. Entertaining, but don’t think it’s sustainable for the Dukes. Need to ramp up the defense and get out of there with a W and the 7 seed. I'm pretty sure Jimerson is going to set the record for senior days today. Is he an MD yet? NAH after 6 years - he will probably "leave school at the conclusion of basketball season to "prepare for the draft" WHILE BEING A FEW CREDITS SHY OF HIS DEGREE" Academic All-American. Perfect handle for you, Skeptic Cam with 4 assists, 3 boards, & 9 points in the 1st. Rozier's scoring has been huge. Let's see if he can pester Jimmerson into some bad shots. This one is right there for the taking. Just have to finish strong. Ughh. Kareem gives up back to back 3s. and then gets tied up for a jump ball... Ughh. Kareem gives up back to back 3s. Two outrageous homer calls in the last minute. Out-of-bounds call overturned. Give the ball to SLY. Then in-bounds to Rozier, fouled by 2 guys, called a tie-up. Terrible end of game coaching. We threw this away. Ugh. Gotta hand it to SLU, they sure made some shots when they needed to. Feels like the officiating tilted the court in their favor though. Loved our effort in a hostile environment, just frustrated we gave this one away at the end of regulation. Should we face the bilikens in the A10 tourney, I hope the Dukes remember how this felt. I am not a Rozier hater. But, I got to question why he is in there on defense with a minute left and you are up by six.

They are at least consistent in that they do it VIRTUALLY EVERY GAME. I am not a Rosier hater. But, I got question why he is in there on defense with a minute left and you are up by six. Up 6 and they have to shoot 3's and we back off player trying to keep him from driving around you. Then do it again. Great game Dukes. Great game plan and execution by the coaching staff. BUT…

Re: Game Thread - Saint Louis Billikens
However, after watching it a bunch of times, I disagree with your analysis on the late tie up of Kareem. The SLU player on the right had both hands cleanly on the ball. If the teams were reversed, every Dukes fan would want this to be called a jump ball.
Mostly that play was about the Dukes losing their cool in a tight spot. To pass it to that player in that location rather than call a timeout shows lack of basketball IQ, experience, & cool.applecorps wrote:

Avila 4 fouls & you don’t iso him on the low block? This is coaching 101.Second point not a hater but Kareem defensive liability. Why was he guarding Jimerson. Sorry but his playing time would be more beneficial limited. I wish college basketball like hockey had a plus minus stat. Coach Dru is a first year coach. I love his upside. Please for the pending tournament have a come to Jesus in regard to playing the best players. Great effort Duquesne.
