Where’s the foul on Bakers 3???!!! 10x more contact than the bs one they called on us. Where’s the foul on Bakers 3???!!! 10x more contact than the bs one they called on us. We are getting absolutely screwed. Could have been a one point game if they make that obvious call. Hughes giving nothing so far. Playing horrible and staying in it despite that and the refs. I have no clue what Mike Hughes is doing doubling the guard off the Golden screen and letting him jog to the hoop for the bunny to end the half???Hughes looks out of it. Need Hughes to finish in 2nd half he's missed some in close and they must not ever foul him. gotta slow down Burton, Hughes has to make some shots. Freshman are keeping us in it. Weathers needs to continue to power to the rim. Need Hughes to finish in 2nd half he's missed some in close and they must not ever foul him. Hard enough to play against 5 guys let alone 8. Just checked the Richmond board not one complaint about the officiating. That says it all. We're defending well enough to win. The offense and rebounding is doing us in. 50% three point shooting is great, but we can't settle for those shots especially early in the possession. The box score has us only losing the rebound battle by one and only credits Richmond with two offensive rebounds. Both seem much more lopsided than that. The injuries haven't seemed to matter so far. Gilyard is filling in for Francis pretty well and Golden certainly doesn't look hurt. The future for the Dukes could be starting today. Hughes is playing his usual brand of great defense, but is being dominated by Golden on the other end. Weathers and TDM are trying to take over the game. Weathers is scoring, but also turning the ball over. TDM is out of control. Freshmen are three of our four leading scorers at the half, and only have 1/3 of the team's turnovers. Keep up the defensive intensity, but we have to hit the glass hard. We've been good in transition, but if it's not there don't get out of control. Don't be afraid to lean on the freshmen. They're barely freshmen at this point anyway. Please come out strong. We are shooting it pretty well but let's play D!!! Hughes with 2 misses and Okani 2 missed free throws. So much for quick start. now Weathers with a missed ft At least Richmond hasn't scored yet. Last edited by WashPaRick (3/04/2021 12:10 pm) Had a chance to cut the lead we gotta hit some shots. Weather should be driving to the hoop from here on out. The freshmen are ice cold in the 2nd half. Hughes as well. This program is crippled by a lack of disciplined, appropriately mature players. It just doesn't seem like those things are part of the culture. Golden out for a break pound it inside. Ugh. Every time we get it close we make about 4 boneheaded mistakes in a row and the lead stretches back out. F'n free throws. This program is crippled by a lack of disciplined, appropriately mature players. It just doesn't seem like those things are part of the culture. I think your on to something. Lazy pass from Hughes puts them at the line when you had the ball down 6. UGHHHHH Thoughts.... we can win but we have to make our move now! Otherwise another tournament loss to go with our abysmal tournament record. Come on Dukes! It is maddening that the start of the second half, down 7, in a win or go home scenario is when KD finally decides it is time for Acuff to play a bigger role. Doing that at the expense of taking Baker off the floor boggles the mind. 14 turnover/5 assists Get your hat and coat and leave.

I also don’t know why we are defending right in Goldens face on the 3 point line. The dude has a broken finger, he is not shooting outside of 12-15 feet. Play off him a little so you can help better defensively on the perimeter.
The refs are killing us. Super frustrating half but we are still in it. UGH

Dambrot saying we are jinxed sure doesn’t help the program. Sometimes.... like all is us.... he says stupid things. But his are in the paper!
This was supposed to be our big year with Weathers n Hughes ...would be surprised if they come back... especially Weathers. Let’s Go Dukes!
