Last night’s 64-53 loss to the Duke Blue Devils at Madison Square Garden wasn’t just an Arizona State basketball team falling in an NIT National Semifinal.

Sun Devils hang with Dukies…for a while

After 30 minutes of basketball at Madison Square Garden, it looked like the 7th-ranked Duke Blue Devils were in for a fight to the finish against Arizona State. But, not scoring a basket for 6:27 has a way to derail things. That’s exactly what happened to the Sun Devils, as they fell to Duke in [...]

Sun, 22 Nov 2009 20:01:00 -0500

Here are some exclusive Andre Dawkins highlight clips from the Duke vs. Radford game I attended on Saturday, November 21, 2009 at Cameron Indoor Stadium.Dawkins left Atlantic Shores Christian School in Virginia Beach, Virginia early to play for the Duke Blue Devils. He scored 20 points--his most so far in his early college career at Duke. He drained six three-pointers and led the surge that really broke the game open against Radford midway through the first half. Duke's Nolan Smith also h...

If you follow college basketball at all, you probably heard the nation’s number one prospect, Harrison Barnes, picked UNC over a host of big name programs this past Friday, including the Duke Blue Devils. No surprise, except when you consider Coach K has been in all in on this kid for two years and Roy [...]

Why DOOK Won't Make a Final Four the Next Five Years

Thu, 19 Feb 2009 11:37:50 -0500

DOOK last went to the Final Four in 2004, when they lost to UConn 79-78. Since then, their NCAA tournament fortunes have steadily declined, culminating in first and second round exits the past two years. In light of their mid-season struggles this year, they appear to be another highly ranked but fatally flawed DOOK team for March Madness.

Coach K Claims the Media Doesn't Give Duke Enough Credit

Mon, 19 Jan 2009 21:49:57 -0500

Just take that headline in for a second... Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski is upset because some local newspapers haven't given Duke enough attention, in his opinion. I could go on for hours about how the media beats us over the head with Duke stories and how great a guy and leader Coach K is. ...

New NBA Flopping Rules Responsible for Coach K Staying at Duke?

Thu, 29 May 2008 19:37:26 -0500

The NBA announced today that it will begin fining players in clear cases of flopping. This is clearly a great idea, because flopping is a scourge on the face of basketball. The first thought that jumped into my mind when I heard about the new rules was "No wonder Coach K didn't take the Lakers job!"

Breaking News: Duke Basketball Team Has the Flu. There's Your Handy Excuse, Dukies.

Fri, 21 Mar 2008 12:30:52 -0500

Why did the Duke Blue Devils give such a lackluster performance in their first round game against Belmont? Could it be that Duke isn't as good as people think? Or maybe Belmont is just a solid team that deserves credit for playing a tough game. Or, maybe the Duke team was sick and therefore unable to play up to their usual level.

Top 10 reasons we all hate Duke

Thu, 07 Feb 2008 14:18:42 -0500

Very few people in the world like Duke. They're like the Yankees of college basketball, except with a much less storied tradition and less championships. They're also named after a French Army, and they constantly flop, dive, travel and cheat.

Fri, 19 Oct 2007 01:23:29 -0500

Coach Mike Krzyzewski is one of college basketball's greatest coaches and his simple 3-2 motion offense has allowed forwards such as Christian Laettner, Carlos Boozer and more recently Shelden Williams and Josh McRoberts to thrive in Coach K's system.

Young McRoberts!!!!!!!

Mon, 11 Jun 2007 19:58:48 -0500

I am staying in Carmel, Indiana, which is north of Indianapolis. In this area lots of people know high school basketball. When you ask someone about it, the first name that pops in their minds is not Greg Oden, Michael Conley Jr., or Eric Gordon. It's JOSH MCROBERTS, one of my favorite people in the world. He is one of the funniest people I have met, and the one person in high school basketball that I dreaded playing, because I had to guard him and he is a monster. He uses both hands on the court. That gives him an edge on everybody else. He was here for a day so I got to hang out with him. It was one of the greatest days. Him and a couple of his friends and I laid out at his pool, played horse in the pool, stayed in too long, hands got wrinkled and when we got tired of being in the pool his mom came and grilled some hamburgers and teriyaki chicken with macaroni salad and cookies. It was the BOMB! Then we just chilled later on with some of his friends from high school and it was cool. The next day he left for Chicago to work out. He is a great player and I hope him well this year in the draft. I hope they invite him to go to the draft cause he will probaly have me laughing the whole night. I don't want to brag, but we were on one of the best AAU teams ever with 1. Michael Conley Jr, 2. Eric Gordon, 3. Deaquan Cook, 4. Josh McRoberts, and 5. little ol me. We also had Aaron Pouge, Curtis White, Mark Titus, Reese Cheatem, and Devin Williams coming off the bench. Those years were fun.
