Duke loses on the road against Georgia Tech

This isn’t the way that Coack K imagined his team starting out ACC Conference play.  The Dukies are 0-2 with two bad loses to Virgina Tech and Georgia Tech.  I’m not going to get into the stats on last nights game, as it was pretty bad I don’t want to go back and look at them.

One thing I know is that Greg Paulus has got to step up his game.  He has to be the leader of this Duke team.  The point guard makes the offense run and that is his job.  He needs to get his confidence back and go out there and play Duke Basketball.  I really believe as Paulus goes, Duke goes this year.

Another reason why Paulus has to step his game up is this.  We can’t have sharp shooter Jon Scheyer running the point 60% of the time.  He is a shooter and he needs the point guard to get him the ball so he can score some buckets for the team.

Everyone from the players to the coaching staff need to step up there game.  Play some good defenese to stop the guards from getting to the basket, rebound the basketball, and make some wide open shots.  This team does not have the player that can put the entire team on his back and lead them to victory like we had last year with JJ and Sheldon.  It has to be a team that does it this year.  What will Coach K do?  Lets here your comments
