First off, yes.

Second, I agree, although I wouldn't be surprised to see Duke lose by a bit as well. I just don't see a W.

Yeah, I think Duke obviously has the better ceiling longterm but they're not playing well as a team yet but they're getting there - UNC is there now so I give them the edge tonight because of that. I think this week was the first time all season we've had everyone, players and coaches, fully healthy for practice. Tonight I think will be the 1st game when everyone is 100%.

Also the fact that Roy seems to need an insanely loaded team to make a run in the tournament, and this Carolina team isn't that

No PG.

Bolden- LOL

So??

PG - Jackson/Allen. Doing pretty well to me.
Giles/Bolden - only need one to step up to be even better.

So yeah, sorry to hurt your feelings, but Duke's ceiling is a lot higher than UNC's, who has already reached their ceiling.

Also due to the fact that the team has only had one practice with all coaches and players healthy. Pretty easy to see they're only going up from here. If Duke beats UNC tonight you can go ahead and start looking forward to next year.

Duke is just more talented. Kennard is the best player on either team and Jefferson is the best big.

Best shooter. Give me Joel Berry as the best player out there tonight. We will see. Amile has improved over the years, but he is a wash at best with Meeks/Hicks.


Key tonight will be which Tatum shows up

Best player on the floor tonight is between Kennard and J. Jackson.

Last sentence is comical regardless of the outcome.

I'd take Amile on defense way before Hicks or Meeks.

About what I thought so far - Duke would play small and wouldn't have anyone to matchup with Jackson. Tatum showing some nerves, hopefully he can't settle down a little.
