    Duke v. G'town discussion
    What a cool/weird/random out of conference matchup. If monroe plays to his potential he could be a problem down low for them. Wright is out of control as well, but with Duke you always get smart basketball and Jon Scheyer is MVP to me so far.

      Im a duke fan so I doubt Ill play it. They have the smarts and coaching to beat them, scheyer and singler are a great combo. But g'town has been improving a lot and have played some tough teams. Also coming off a blowout where they started the game 14-0. Im pumped to watch this one.

        G-Town has no bench. They tire as the game goes. That why they got blown-out by the Cuse.

        Duke is good this year. I hated on them early, but their backcourt is strong. The boys down low of kind of soft to me, but Duke has always been about shooters.

          ya, they have been soft down low for a while. But they really impressed me when they won that madison square garden game and rolled on uconn. Stanley Robinson can hop out of the gym and they crashed the boards and ran them out of the gym. Go duke!

            Should be a great game to watch, don't think I'll bet either side though.

                    Monroe might struggle with all the big bodies Duke has to offer. Singler/Scheyer/Smith best 3 man combo in the nation IMO. Scheyer is playing out of his mind. Dukes defense has been very tough lately. This just seems like the game where Duke blows a team out on their home floor and cements themselves as a contender.

                                  I like Duke.

                                    duke has laid some bombs on the road but i really dont think g-towns offense can keep up with them if they are at all in sync. georgetown will be motivated coming off a tough loss but i really feel like duke is starting to get it together. the blue devils are a very talented team, with a better coach and i like duke a lot on saturday.

                                      The consensus seems to be on the Blue Devils. Low number makes this fishey to me for some reason.

                                        Duke has the second highest free throw percentage as a team in the COUNTRY; in a close game this is the straw that breaks the camel's back. I like Duke here.

                                                    Like Georgetown on this one, but this is one of those games you just have to leave alone. Line favors neither side.

                                                          I don't know how you play this one, unless it's something small just for some action.

                                                            Looks like an OVER game. Georgetown has an athletic big in Monroe who has no problem running the floor, and Duke will probably keep shooting lights out from three.

                                                                Like Duke -2, close early, Duke pulls away 2nd half, just like Clemson game.

Wright is out of control as well, but with Duke you always get smart basketball and Jon Scheyer is MVP to me so far.
