Make room for my Daddy Duke. He's heathy and thriving

[ABEHONEST]

Of all the ugly news for 2 months, finally, my best shot with good odds to win it all is looking mighty healthy.
And this Griffin kid is playing like a early-round draft pick for a month or two.
A freshman with a body built to play football or basketball.
6-6 and 222. Where did Duke [K] find this gem?

[ABEHONEST]

The two keys: NCU was clobbered on assists and rebounds but did have 4 less TO's. At NCU?

[ABEHONEST]

Here's a phenomenal stat few sports bettors are seeing about the Duke Blue Devils.

#1 could be the most important: Only 12 to 18 games left for Mr. K.
His 3 losses:
#2. At Ohio State: 66/71 and were leading by 13 at the half.
#3. Home against Miami U. 76/74.
#4. At Florida State: 78/79 OT loss.

The word a month ago was, Duke had been playing with injuries and an illiness, I do believe?
They are now 19/3 and playing their best basketball of the season. Those 3 losses equal a total amount of points of [8].

What Book has the best future odds?

Duke and Kentucky really playing well

Duke though a known choker tourney time they always have one of best teams and most time have failed

[ABEHONEST]

JJ. Now what do you think?

Duke has won 5 NCAA Championships (tied with Indiana for fourth all-time behind UCLA, Kentucky, and North Carolina) and appeared in 11 Championship Games (third all-time) and 16 Final Fours (fourth all-time behind North Carolina, UCLA, and Kentucky).

*That Duke/Kentucky game with Laettner's final shot was the greatest thrill I have ever witnessed on a basketball floor.

And I've seen a bunch but most were at the high school level.

You just jinxed them
Watch them lose today

Hey, I don't need any help with jinxes. The line had already dropped to 11 1/2?
What?

[Shutup]

Told ya
Sorry if ya lost
I knew everyone was gonna be all over them after the road sweep and domination of NC

[Bostongambler]

Banchero zero points in the second half did help your cause Abe.

[Shutup]

I lost pretty big on NC vs Duke
Had that a good spot
Was wrong
But I knew to come back

Duke Clemson becomes very interesting
Can't see another Duke loss
But they came off a 3 game road sweep and after today another road game
Clemson looking for revenge
Duke good off a loss
Guessing line will be 4?

Hmm, someone outguessed me. I was believing the big over UNC and the momentum would carry Duke for a while?
But that line drop did convince me of something else. They were too fat and not hungry enough.
Yes, I did do good last night, believing in the possible big jink along with that way too soon line drop.
But the pain of watching them lose was sad.
Duke won almost every category and especially this one: TO's 15 to 5.

A warning sign that Duke is getting a bit worn down with that tuff ACC conference.
* Again, what is wrong with Banchero?

[ABEHONEST]

This Banchero worry is legit?
Duke cannot go far in the tourney with him still "messed up."

[ABEHONEST]

More bizarre stats.
Banchero's error, coupled with Mark Williams' flubbed coverage on the final inbounds that led to Beekman's 3, proved the recipe for yet another close loss for the Blue Devils. Their four losses this season have come by a total of nine points, and Duke has had a lead late in each one.
* Guys were mentally flat.
A gambler's dream to know beforehand.
