    DBR Bites #90 - Maiden showdown with the Golden Bears
    Feb 11 2025
    The Duke Blue Devils are back at it Wednesday night when they welcome the Cal Bears to town. We preview the game on DBR Bites #90. Duke looks to get back on track after Saturday's loss to Clemson, but they're battling the sick bug amongst the team. Before we get into the Cal preview, we hear from Jon Scheyer on how sick Cooper Flagg is and how it's affected his play. We also hear from Cal coach Mark Madsen on what he feels his team needs to do to beat the Blue Devils. We then get into the breakdown of Cal's season thus far. Their first season in the ACC hasn't been great, but they have some good players on the team (including the son of a former NBA star) and we give you our take on how Duke can get back in the win column.

    DBR Bites #89 - Big Game At Littlejohn
    Feb 7 2025
    The Duke Blue Devils have a huge test on Saturday night against the Clemson Tigers. We preview the Quad 1 game on DBR Bites #89. Duke enters the contest in 1st place and undefeated in the ACC, but Littlejohn is traditionally a tough place for Duke to play against the Tigers, who are tied for 2nd in the conference. Donald and Jason bring you up to speed on what has made Clemson successful thus far, from what they do well on offense and defense to some of their special players. Duke can beat Clemson, and we also tell you how that can happen. We also discuss the volatile NBA trade deadline that passed on Thursday. Several members of The Brotherhood are off to new homes, and we briefly discuss where everyone ended up. Make sure you’re following us!

    #691 - Orange Crush
    Feb 6 2025
    Ho hum, another relaxing Duke victory where the outcome was never in doubt. The Duke Basketball Roundup crew has a breakdown of one of the more complete efforts we've seen all year from Duke, an 83-54 dismantling of Syracuse. From the stellar defense to the crisp ball movement on offense, Duke was in control throughout this one. Special shout-out to Maliq Brown, returning to his old stomping grounds and showing off the defensive prowess that has made him one of the elite disruptors in the country. Oh and we really need to know if a blocked shot can also be an assist, because Khaman Maluach had a connection to Isaiah Evans that sure looked like it was part-block, part-pass.

    DBR Bites #88 - What to expect from the Orange
    Feb 4 2025
    Admit it, you are thinking ahead. You are dreaming about going 20-0 in the ACC or maybe you are already looking into the big matchup with ACC #2 Clemson this weekend. Well, the Duke Basketball Roundup was unafraid to ask Jon Scheyer about those very things... and he put us in our place very quickly. It is all part of the latest edition of the DBR Pod in which we spend most of our time examining the next opponent for Duke, the Syracuse Orange. What kind of team are they without the vaunted Boeheim zone defense? Plus, Jason and Donald take a moment to speak about the great Leonard Hamilton, who announced this week that he will step down from FSU after an incredible coaching career. What will the podcast co-hosts remember the most about the man? It may just be the overwhelming size of his rosters. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • #690 - Nothing Could Be Finer Than A Relaxing Win Over Carolina!

    #690 - Nothing Could Be Finer Than A Relaxing Win Over Carolina!
    Feb 2 2025
    This was a fun one to record. The Duke Blue Devils destroyed the North Carolina Tar Heels last night, and we do a thorough recap of everything on Episode 690! Last night’s DBR Bites was a quick recap on vibes, so in this one deals with the substance of how Duke did so well against UNC. It started with the defense, but Duke excelled on all sides of the basketball. Cooper Flagg and Kon Knueppel were dominant, but Duke was able to pour on the pressure and everyone on the team provided something for that. We of course get into everything good about the game, but we also discuss the things to improve. It wasn’t all perfect, but the end result absolutely was. We’re on a high and we should be...stay for our Play of the Game and our Player of the Week awards, but stay after the Duke Band for some postgame content about arguably the biggest NBA trade of all time!

  • DBR Bites #87 - It was a BEATDOWN!!

    DBR Bites #87 - It was a BEATDOWN!!
    Feb 2 2025
    The Duke Basketball Roundup guys will have a stat-filled, analysis-laden recap of the whupping that Duke put on Carolina in the coming hours, but Jason and Donald just wanted to hop on quickly for an insta-reaction to Duke absolutely torching the hated Tar Heels in Cameron. The final score doesn't even come close to showing what a massive beatdown this contest was. Hang on... I just called it a contest. It wasn't. Carolina was non-competitive and could do nothing against Duke when it mattered (the final few minute flurry is meaningless and we all know it). Sit back and enjoy this quick DBR Bites as the guys prepare for a longer and more indulgent recap tomorrow. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    #689 - How To Beat Carolina
    Jan 30 2025
    It’s time. The big game is upon us and we preview Duke’s matchup with North Carolina on Episode 689! UNC has struggled this season against a loaded schedule, one of the best of the country. Donald and Jason get into who UNC has played and how they’ve struggled in very close games. They then break down the offense and defense, going deep to tell you about what makes UNC successful and where Duke could have an advantage. They have some players that are dangerous, but they’ve struggled this year with the combinations on the court and that has created inconsistency. We then get into the things to watch, including who matches up with Cooper Flagg, rebounding, and embracing the huge moment that this rivalry provides. After the break, Duke Football got their 2025 schedule, and it’s an interesting one! We discuss the schedule quickly to tell you which games to circle and how Duke could be set up for a decent run if they can make it through a couple of barriers. Make sure you’re following us!
