Well Duke without Zion lost, so are you saying that teamwork is overrated?

Jesus I was being sarcastic. 34 downvotes really? There’s that mob mentality for you

I hate Duke, but VA Tech is a very solid, under-rated team. They could make some noise in the tournament.

This. A&M is an undermanned garbage team and we struggled to put them away. With the way we played tonight we would have lost against any team with a pulse.

Duke without Zion would probably still beat us with everyone. There’s no comparison between Duke without Zion and us without Tremont

We were up by 20+ and we won by 11...the game was never really in doubt so spare me. Also, TAMU had won 4 out of 5 coming into tonight. They were only 2 games behind Auburn, and tied with Arkansas...who got SHAFTED against UK tonight

GTFOH.

They got BLOWN out vs UNC and lost to a Va Tech team that doesn't have it's best player. Bet you didn't know that, did you? Of course not. But yea, VT did have their best player tonight either. I promise you that VT's best player means a Hell of a lot more to them than Duke's

I’m not saying that we don’t have a chance to beat them because I think we could but let’s be realistic here, Duke is still loaded, with or without Zion. It’d be tough for us to beat them but I think we’d compete very well against them but I wouldn’t pick us to beat Duke

Of course we can but if we’re playing them in the NCAA tournament, we’re going to get Dukes best effort and that’s going to be tough to beat with or without Zion. Duke is still loaded all over the floor

We got blown out by Oklahoma St, lost to Arkansas, and Florida. There’s no comparison to who they lost to and who we lost to. It’s basketball, anything can happen but you need to be more realistic man

I don’t disagree with you, they’re still a top 10 team without zion. BUT they aren’t as unbeatable as you’d think. Only beat Florida state by 2 points, only beat Auburn by 6, and without one of the worst choke jobs i’ve ever witnessed would have lost to Louisville.

Living in NC, Duke and UNC games are constantly televised often during primetime. I have watched quite a few Duke games this season. Get Zion and/or Barrett in foul trouble, and challenge their outside jump shots. Catch them on a night when they are not hitting those 3's, and they are very beatable. Run and gun with them, and it would be shootout. Would like to see the matchup in March or April (final four/finals).

Why? They are a very disciplined team, their academic standards are high, their coach appears to be sincere and a real gentleman, their graduation rates are very high for anyone that doesn’t go to the league early and their players/coaches do not appear to get into any scandals. I am not sure why everyone hates Duke.

For all of the Star Gazers out there, Zion was the third best signee of last year's Duke Class.
