LOL. Both are the most hated coaches in program history. Just saying, we prolly can't use that as a badge of honor.
BTW, about 97% of Duke fans are bandwagon fans, can't name their football coach, cheer for F SU, Miami, or some like team in football, also love the Lakers, Yankees, and Cowboys. Douchy but odd group.
Wait, guy above was saying he thinks it's Oregon? WHat's the latest buzz? He has zero posts, might be a Duke fan or something..
Ask any Duke fan who they cheer for in college football, also ask them for their All Duke NBA team and watch them sweat. It's a fun little game I like to play with Duke fans.
Lol funny you say that because their other favorite teams include Miami, and in NBA Lakers lol. You're spot on.
It's true, I've seen it 1000 times. You may not be a cliche but the vast majority of your fans are.
BTW, who do you cheer for in football and name your All Duke NBA team.
I cheer for Duke in Football..
All NBA team? Of Current guys playing?
So odd to see Kentucky fans adopt the UNC moth eaten drum beat from the 1990’s about the NBA.. were you on the old AOL boards back in the day? Saw all those silly exchanges. UNC at that time had the best collection of pros playing however it was Duke and Kentucky vying for team of the 90’s.. These days UNC fans slam the NBA and bash Kentucky and Duke’s “OAD” recruiting (because they can’t get those kids lol) and instead are adopting the opposite argument from the 90’s about not being a farm team for the NBA and having just won the NCAA’s with “four year kids.” LOL... funny how it all comes back full circle.
I don’t even watch the NBA to be quite honest. I’m a busy man and there’s only so much time in a day. I wish all former players well but beyond that no banner is going up in Durham tonight if Kyrie scores 50 or whatever..
I have zero desire to attack Kentucky’s program for anything. I recognize what a recruiting force the school is and like it or not, you all have to accept the latter at the very least when it comes to hated Duke.. (the sheer volume of Duke stuff here tells that tale.)
Duke is America's Team, They are the Yankees, the Lakers, Celtics, The Cowboys..
..just, without the same success. That's what's mind boggling. Aside from Dallas, all the above teams have absurd success. There are several teams firmly ahead of Duke in college basketball.

Duke fan: “All-Duke NBA team? Ummm...Kyrie, uh....hold on...Grant Hill? Does Christian Laettner still play? Umm...rookie Okafor, annnnnnnd Justise Winslow. Boom! Beat that!”
What? Duke has 5 titles in 27 years......... if you dont consider that high level success then you are nuts.
God I hate Duke... so please stop saying absurd things that make me have to set the record straight and defend those azz hats.

Tariq has covered RJ Barrett since middle school, knows RJ and his family the best among all reporters covering this recruitment. This is him saying he'd Crystal Ball Barrett to Oregon if he had the ability.

..because nobody is going to be talking about them after 2020.
And let's be real, Kentucky fans have spent plenty of time talking about UNC and Uconn and Kansas and also Duke, at various points. For quite some time this board was obsessed with Kansas.
But don't get it twisted, we talk about who the top compeition is at any given time, and to be fair, it's Duke.
This board won't be talking about Duke for long. You can bet on that.
Since I’m not a psychic and there’s no guarantee either one of us will even be breathing a few years from now let’s focus on 11-10-2017.

I love how Duke fans cite random quotes by Coach K talking about "positionless players" from the early 90s when nobody ever noticed him using that as a recruiting pitch until the last 2-3 seasons.

Well you got about 19 to pick from so that’s pretty good representation. A lot of very young players mostly who will be around a while.
Potentially huge day for Duke recruiting... Where does Duke fan go to talk about it? Kentucky board.
Kind of sad.
Kind of sad.
Barrett is a great player and looks like a great fit for the Cats. Don’t count out Calipari~
When did you become a Kentucky fan? I've read your shitty posts over at the UNCheat board about UK over and over and over. They finally had enough of you over there huh? Go to class punk.
Yep, same dude that roots for the cheats and then comes and posts garbage over here. He's an idiot!
Now that he's playing defense, there's no argument for Wall over Kyrie.
Kyrie's Celtics are 10-2 while Wall's Wizards are 6-5. Don't even make some BS arguments about Brown and Tatum being ultra talented when Beal and Otto Porter have been playing lights out for the Wizards. Wall definitely has the better supporting cast.
Kyrie is the best PG in the NBA right now.
If it means that much to you I like Tatum, Irving, Parker, Hood and Winslow. A shame Parker and Winslow got hurt but hopefully they’ll come back strong.
Kyrie Irving has more pieces around him than Wall. Is probably better coached than the Wizard's as well.
Was quite something. Remember Zmart? Aka Zeke Martins, geez he was obsessed with harassing you guys.
Kyrie also has Al Horford and basically the same exact team that finished 1st place in the East minus Avery Bradley and Crowder. If you wanna consider Irving and IT a clean swap. Wall averages better numbers across the board besides scoring, 3pt % And FT %. Wizards have absolutely no bench whatsoever. Put Wall with LeBron and K Love and see what he can do. No comparison whatsoever between the two. Wall is night and day better than Kyrie who is the PG version of Melo

I think so. There were soooo many. That one UofL fan who threatened to kill everyone was a bit more over the top. Can't remember his name though... @Bkocats ??
just stop. youre not fooling anyone.
Pg: Wall
SG: Booker
SF: Davis
PF: Kat
C: Cousins
Bench
Pg: Fox
SG: Murray
Sf: Gilchrist
PF: Skal
C: WCS
I think the Celtics returned four players from a fifteen man roster. Pretty new team.
You mean 2 time All Star and All-NBA Carlos Boozer? Geez BBN has such a short memory and only started watching the NBA when Calipari took over. Kentucky's presence in the NBA was such a joke before 2010, you basically had an immature Rondo and that's it. Cal comes along and recruits like 20 top 10 guys and now you're acting like you've accomplished something great as if these players wouldn't have been successful if they went to college anywhere else.
Wall doesn't beat Kyrie anywhere this year besides assists and that's because Irving has 3 other great passers on his team in Smart, Rozier and Horford.
PPG
Kyrie: 22 (33.4 MPG)
Wall: 21 (35.4 MPG)
FG%
Kyrie: 44.6%
Wall: 41.6%
3P%
Kyrie: 32.1%
Wall: 27%
Steals
Kyrie: 25
Wall: 13
Rebounds
Kyrie: 40
Wall: 38
Kyrie is #1 in the NBA in Defensive Win Shares, has the 5th best Defensive Rating and the 12th best Box Score +/-.
There are no arguments left to take Wall over Kyrie. If the Cavs had Wall instead if Irving, they wouldn't have won the NBA title in 2015.
