That was basketball being played as it should be played. Monk was unconscious.

it felt like a throwback to the 70s (sans 4 corners) where there was no defense and scoring at will. Way better than the 51-49 grinders of the 2000s.

That game might be nominated for an ESPY. Even though I hate both teams almost equally, that was an outstanding game, great players making great plays. Monk and Jackson were tremendous.

Looks like Harry Giles is going to play tonight. Will probably be a little rusty.

That Layup flop basically sums up my thoughts on Grayson Allen all at once... I don't know how that is called

Yeah played about 4 minutes in the first half. It's going to take him some time I think. Duke is just going through the motions so far. Terrible half of shooting for Duke.

It was an awful call, but I don't think Grayson is the person you should be getting mad at. I kinda get tired of his antics and wish he would go to the basket trying to score like Luke instead of trying to get a call, but he didn't do anything.

I can't remember a worse shooting half than the first half. That was awful. I think the 9 day layoff really showed and they were rusty and probably just expected to roll over TSU. I didn't think TSU was that good, although they did have a couple really good players, but they were tough and definitely punched Duke in the mouth and they weren't ready to fight. Only Grayson and Amile came to play with energy. Also, I'm really surprised Bolden isn't further along right now. That's kinda worrisome to me. Thankfully Tatum's rebounding has been great which has been a pleasant surprise to me.

It's every single play. That's my problem

From the little I've seen of Bolden, he isn't better than Tony Bradley.

Well he's only played 33 minutes all season so he hasn't played much at all. I know he had that injury, but I'm really just shocked K hasn't given him the chance to figure it out yet. K has had a very quick hook with him and Jackson.

I do disagree with K letting him play the rest of the game. I think he should've been benched/suspended for the second half.

I hate when people act like Louisville-Kentucky is on the same level as Duke-UNC

Ikr? UNC/Duke rivalry is such an intense rivalry. Not to mention Calipari is 8-1 against Pitino. That's not a rivalry.
