Made a pull up 3 pointer, a fade away mid ranger, a lefty hook backing down in the post and a righty hook shot in the post. A couple assists and a bunch of free throws all in crunch time.

I wish K still coached. This Duke team has zero identity, it looks like a team of a random 5 dudes and just rolling the ball out and having them play. You wouldve never known from watching Jalen Johnson now that he was known for his passing. K basically is just playing him like a standard 4 and thats it.

You almost forget Johnson is out there aside from defense

Its crazy because players like Johnson are the kind of players that K usually knows how to use perfectly. But for the majority of the time Jalen just sits in the corner or near the hoop. Then the few times he actually gets the ball at the top of the arc, he makes a play.

This Duke team is really lacking someone to run this offense in the half court. You would think Jalen would be that guy. But for some reason it seems like K just doesnt want to do that.

i thought K should've been canned after the Zion/RJ/Cam season, dude's just floating by on his name at this point and it does a disservice to everyone, players, fans, the program

The Tatum year was the year I was officially done with him, that team truly opened my eyes to how prime K is most definitely a thing of the past. The glow of 2015 worn off and looking back at that season, it became very clear that wasnt K coaching that team to the championship, it was Winslow and Tyus putting that team on their back.

Duke fans used to always laugh at coach Cal for being a horrible in game coach but an elite recruiter. Well that is exactly what K has become. The amount of wasted talent that has come through Duke since 2015 is crazy when you think about it.

This year's team honestly looks like K isnt even trying to make it look like he's coaching. Again this is Mark Jackson/Jason Kidd levels of bad right now.

The one positive when it comes to the draft (to keep this on topic haha). Im starting to like Jalen Johnson's ability to play some small ball 5. He seems to know how to use his size and vert pretty well inside the paint.

Johnson might want to re-invent himself into the Bam mold.

No K needs to realize he is misusing the crap out of him on the offensive end. Jalen is damn good with the ball in his hands and running the offense. He has basically been a point forward his entire high school career. No clue why K has decided to negate that skill completely.
