April 30, 201016 yr :thumb: Not to mention on all the interviews I have seen with him, he seems like a great all around kid. Sad thing is I only see one year from him. Happens very seldom at Duke. Once they get there they like to stick around. Coach K is good at selling them on the program.
April 30, 201016 yr Happens very seldom at Duke. Once they get there they like to stick around. Coach K is good at selling them on the program. No doubt. I think the last one and done Duke had was Loul Deng. Which I'm taking a guess and saying maybe 5 years ago.

April 30, 201016 yr I am not at all savvy in regards to the hs basketball rankings, etc.....GT, or others....if Irving really this good? Will he come in and start at Duke? As a Duke fan, I am completely stoked about the potential skill of next year's back court, but I am having a hard time wrapping my mind around the likes of Singler, Smith, Dawkins, Curry, and Irving. I think it's a good problem to have, but what exactly is the lineup or rotation going to look like come next March?
April 30, 201016 yr Author Irving just has a feel for the game you don't see very often from a high school pg at the elite level. The rotation at Duke will no doubt be very interesting as they get all of those kids clock...
April 30, 201016 yr I think Irving will be the best point guard at Duke. The others are shooting guards, IMO and I think Irving has proven that he doesn't have to score to be noticed on the court. I think Dawkins will get the short of the stick in the guard rotation but Dawkins can get his time when he is a junior when Irving could be gone as well as Smith, Singler and possibly even Curry. Dawkins is a 4 year player while Irving is gone after 1-2 years. :lol: Imagine that, Log Mountain doesn't think Irving is better than Selby. Surely that's not Log Mountain once again hating on a Dukie.....:lol:(just messing with you Log Mountain)

I think the starters for sure are gonna be Singler, Smith and a Plumlee. Irving will probably also get the nod. Then you look at Curry and Dawkins splitting time. If Curry lives up to the hype I wouldnt expect Dawkins to get as much PT as he should. I'm ready for basketball season already. I dont think I've been this pumped for a Duke team in quite a while:ylsuper:.

Thats a pretty good percent. :lol: Seriously, Irving can really play. There is no doubt about that. I just thought Selby was the most athletic and explosive of the 3 PGs and it was noticeable in an all star game setting. It will be fun to see how they play against actual defense and see how they defend themselves.
April 30, 201016 yr If Jones picks Kentucky, then I would assume that the Wildcats would have a top three recruiting class.
