What's this?

They challenged us 1 on 1 because they were bigger at every position so

Even when we got a step on them we still had to account for their length on recovery

It was brilliant strategy by Duke. They wanted us to make tough 2s and they bumped us off balance daring refs to call it. We got more FTs vs Duke this way than usual but they wouldn’t call the fouls when Cattoor or Pedulla drove. It’s really unfair how Cattoor is being officiated. He CAN drive and does have good athleticism but refs must not think so because every time he drives and gets hacked they just let it happen

Do more inside out on th 3’s, to much perimeter passing. No open 3’s hurts -- Stech 12/22/2021 11:16PM

Duke picked their poison by not doubling Keve, so he scores 23 but no kick -- B(ig) H(okie) 12/22/2021 11:19PM

That’s why we have to attack the basket and do layups and kick it out. We -- Stech 12/22/2021 11:34PM

The no calls by the refs was a factor in this game 🤔 ** -- VPI63 12/22/2021 11:44PM

Yep, this is now the book on VT. Alleyne's utter ineffectiveness is . . . -- MidloHokie 12/22/2021 11:31PM

They were giving us open lanes, needed to take those layups -- soflahokie 12/22/2021 11:19PM

Have to do both, Pedulla slashing definitely helped, but you have to change -- Stech 12/22/2021 11:22PM

Have to force them to guard you inside to open up the perimeter -- soflahokie 12/22/2021 11:26PM

Well at least Chucky Cheese is retiring to his hole in the wall and there -- jdkhokie 12/22/2021 11:25PM
