We try to figure out what happened against Michigan State on Episode 256 of the Duke Basketball Report Podcast. On this episode, we spend a lot of time analyzing what went wrong in Duke's loss against the Michigan State Spartans. From the ineffective offense to the issues with intensity, we discuss what Duke needs to do to improve from here. We react to some quotes from the postgame press conference from Coach K, Jordan Goldwire, and Matthew Hurt, and we also react to a listener’s question about this year’s leadership and who it could be. After the break, we discuss Duke Basketball’s upcoming game against Bellarmine and the fact that the game against the Elon Phoenix is now canceled due to coronavirus protocols within the Elon program. We preview Bellarmine and what we’re looking for the Blue Devils to do to get back on track. Finally, Duke Football is back this weekend against the Miami Hurricanes instead of the Florida State Seminoles, so we see how Duke can pull off the upset against a Miami squad that has aspirations of making the ACC Championship Game. We end with an interesting note from Jason about Duke and dog names. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

#255 - The season has started!

You can hear the excitement in our voices as Duke basketball returns to the court for the crazy, wild, unpredictable 2020-2021 season. Jason, Sam, and Donald loved some of the freshman performances against Coppin State, but there were many sources of concern too. What was up with all those turnovers? Coach K had a theory and we talk a bit about it. Plus, we look ahead to the game against Michigan State, a team that we seem to play every year. No Cassius Winston this time for the Spartans, but they will be bringing some strong interior players to Durham. Then, we chat a bit about another frustrating loss for the football team. Sigh... Ga Tech made plenty of mistakes, but Duke made more... a lot more. You won't want to miss it as we compare Duke's mistakes to the number of pieces of pie eaten by the DBR crew this Thanksgiving week. And it all wraps up with the player of the week... you get three guesses who we picked and the first two don't count. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
