NOt up for a doing a big write up now, but you got street tuff kids on Nova like Fisher, Clark, Redding with outstanding talent in Reynolds n Cunningham vs. one athlete in Henderson who pounds the ball way too much, reminds me of a NBA player, dribble dribble dribble try go to the hole. A better coach in my mind in Jay Wright.Singlar will be covered all nite by a combo of guys like Clark, Redding, anderson.. Most underrrated player in the country in Cunningham. X Factor is Corey Fisher, I dont think Duke can stay in front of him. And he usually rises up to the Big games.. And I cant wait to see Zoubek's dorky head in the game, once he is in it will be pick n pop all nite for Nova.. I think Nova should be the fav here.. Cant wait to hear Duke Vitale break down how Duke wins this game..HAHAHAHA

im a nova alum and huge fan but i gotta be honest, i think we are just as talented as duke, but the thing that scares me is the X factor and that is coaching. i just dont think Jay Wright is all he is cracked up to be, and i think coach k will have his team prepared and have a solid game plan in place for nova.

its all gonna boil down to whether jay has the ability to adjust on the fly. and i just am not that confident in him.

I agree. I like Jay Wright, but he just isn't a great in-game coach.

The word Scottie Reynolds and talented do not belong together in the same sentence.


scottie reynolds is extremely over rated ..... he has no business getting respect that he gets. he is nothing short of a turnover factory.

if duke presses him he will turn the ball over at least 6 times himself.

Guess you didn't catch the second half of the Nova-Notre Dame game. Reynolds hit big 3 after big 3. I think ND wins that game and MAYBE makes the tournament if not for Reynolds lighting up the second half.

he isnt even the best point guard on his team!

cory fisher ! novA MYA BLOW DUKE OF THE COURT! MORE PHYSICAL, QUICKER GUARDS, SINGLER CANT GUARD CUNNINGHAM!

THE ONLY MATCH UP ISSUE WILL BE GUARDING HENDERSON!

IF I AM NOVA I LET HIM GET HIS 25 AND SHUT EVERYONE ELSE DOWN!

NOVA 78
DUKE 65

Be careful on this one. The zebras always give every call to Duke.

agreed..that's y i don't bet duke games...u start out the game playin 8 on 5...duke has patented the charge call,,,it makes them unwatchable..i really hope nova plays as tough as they did vs. ucla...cuz i don't think duke wants to play that physical game....

Mike Brey's team have a way of making a lot of people look good.
6 for 7 in that game. Also, the Irish good not score a basket. I have no idea how you think he was the difference considering ND scored about 8 points in the final 12 minutes.


I guess you didn't watch Nova more than a couple times this year.

Before the ND game, Reynolds was 5 for 24 from downtown. If Mike Brey actually knew what Defense was they may have won a few more games this year. No tourney next year without McAlrney and Ayers.

Maybe makes the tournament? You are kidding right?

You do realize it was the 2nd to last game of conference play that they got smoked at home by 17?

This is not a good match-up for Duke. You are getting good value with Nova +2.5

I really like Nova too but this line seems so fishy. Not sure if vegas has to make Duke the favorite because of 2 seed or wat but everyone is gonna be on Nova. Let's just hope its the same scenario as Cuse this weekend.
