Looks like the Spurs giving the Celtics some Spurs’ love.
WOW… LMA with a vintage Portland performance.
That’s a ridiculous box-score.
TECH DESTROYING BUFFALO—SHOCKED BY THAT SCORE—FIGURE IT TO BE SLUGFEST TO THE END—–TECH CAN REALLY COME AFTER YOU ON DEFENSE —-CULVER’S STOCK ON THE RISE ALSO
Tech is the best defensive team in the nation….. ridiculous stat I heard that Buffalo went scoreless for an HOUR in real time.
Dawkins played one heck of a game. Nba player I think. Zion was amazing except for the ft. Reddish was great. Barrett was pretty darn good.
Game turned on that Reddish 3…. Zion with a ridiculous finish, Barrett with hustle and desire. Dawkins is a baller, I agree, looks like an NBA player to me.
I will say, Reddish has hit some crazy clutch jumpers this year.
Absolutely, Florida State game winner on the road, Louisville FTW on the road, now UCF to cut the lead to 1.
Have to say, Dawkins outplayed Reddish and Barrett even though they had good games.
For sure. He was arguably the player of the game or tied with Zion. But he is a junior and those two are freshmen. Wonder if he declares for the draft. Not sure his name is on the radar in the first round, so it may benefit him to wait another year. But maybe this tourney was enough. I mean the shots he was making were all pro level shots and some were extremely difficult for that level.
Well, he’s got athletic genes obviously, and he definitely looks lengthier than his father. Probably not an elite athlete, but is a coach’s son so knows the game…. great type of guy to snag in the 2nd or undrafted ranks.
Cursory look at his number, ideal 3 and D type of player…. Great 3pt shooting % and he’s 6’6”
WOW>>>>>>>>>> UCF should’ve made both of those shots….. Duke got lucky.
Yeah what a game though. Game of the tournament so far. Maybe will end up being the game of the tournament
Yup…. I’m in shock.
UCF really should have won…incredible that neither went down. But that’s the tournament.
Holy moly this is nuts. Zion bricks a pressure ft bad but goes right to Barrett. Stroke of luck
Huge ft
BARRETT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THE FRESHMAN!!!!!
Wow what A GAME!
ZION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Reddish HUGE shot
CAM REDDISH HUGE 3!!! AGAIN!!!
Dunno how you can overturn that. Not enough.
Yeesh Dawkins is out of his mind.
Duke has to go at Fall. They need to foul him out. Not even scoring right now, but the attention that must be paid to him opens so much for UcF perimeter guys’ freedom of movement. And I think his being out there boosts their confidence
Wowser. No fear by UCF shooters.
UCF not going away. Impressive
Dawkins player of this game so far. Wow.
UCF can’t win this game without Fall out there. Duke going to pull away. If they go down by 9, I would put him back in and risk it.
If I were UCF’s coach, I’m bringing back Fall immediately, why wait until under 4 TO???
Nevermind, he did LOL.
Yep just thought the same thing
WHAT A HORRIBLE CALL…. that was a clean block by Zion!!!
SIMILAR TO LEBRON —–IT IS ZION ….AND THEN EVERYONE ELSE IN THE DRAFT
Another big Trey by Zion. great game
HAVE TO AGREE SOMEWHAT ON REDDISH—JUST HAVEN’T SEEN THE CONSISTENCY —OVERALL GAME THAT WOULD INSPIRE BEING TOP 5 PICK —JUST MY OPINION —-ALMOST THINK ( HE WON’T ) COULD BENIFIT FROM ANOTHER YEAR IN COLLLEGE
HEARD TACO HAS A 10′ 5 ‘ STANDING FLAT REACH ——THAT IS JUST CRAZY——-SLAM DUNK WITHOUT JUMPING !!
I HAVE WATCHED QUITE A FEW DUKE GAMES —–KEEP ON TRYING TO “BUY INTO ” REDDISH AS A HIGH DRAFT PICK–TOP 5 —–JUST HAVEN’T SEEN IT YET
He actually has played pretty well this game on offense.
One could argue they should’ve been feeding him more.
True. Hard to tell how much offense he can create on his own. But his shot could be more consistent too.
I’ve definitely seen flashes that he can, he’s just never asked to at all by the coaches. That’s why I wonder if he’s a case like Tatum.
Well get is going to get drafted in the top ten, probably top 5 so somebody is going to find out the hard way where he is at. A guy like that makes sense financially to come out. But if he actually isn’t ready could set back his development.
But yeah I think he needs another year or two of development.
Agreed.
WOW…. Zion got hacked, got the LeBron treatment…. makeup call for the previous call.
He did. But he is going to have to have some counters in the nba in that situation. Not necessarily going to be able to go straight into, through, or over many centers in nba. Pump fake, short j, up and under, etc.
Boy Dawkins looks like an NBA player. Wish I would have known about him sooner.
AGREE WITH YOU CLF/ BUFFALO WINNING —-TEAM IS UNDERRATED
Some questionable calls going Duke way. They don’t need help. Let them play. Let’s see how they adjust. Zion with another three. Like seeing him expand his game when needed
ANYBODY WATCHING THE BUFFALO/ TECH GAME—THAT COULD BE A BATTLE
No, but definitely think Buffalo could win that one.
Ugh. Brutal call on fall. Probably should have been a travel on Zion. Just lost it and caught it.
Dawkins playing out of his mind. Tacko making a huge difference. Hope they don’t call some star fouls for Duke on him. Want to see how if they adjust to him for a full half.
Tacko Fall with a Boban dunk!!! LOL.
He has been a huge impact when he has been out there. You can’t teach that size and length.
Indeed… Duke also struggled to score against Florida State’s size earlier in the season.
Haven’t watched yet. Looks like Sexton having an off game.
Add Knight and Cedi to that.
Duke press sort of their not so secret weapon. Reminds me of St V when LBJ was there along with his buddies. Just athletically outmatching teams trying to bring it up the court.
KLOVE with 18/16 after 3 quarters…. love how he’s looking like Wolves’ KLOVE.
Barrett, Zion, and Reddish all playing well after a bit of a slow start.
LOL Coach K giving Aubrey Dawkins the shoutout.
Jordan Goldwire brought incredible defensive intensity…. changed the whole game along with Fall’s foul trouble.
WHAT A PASS ZION!!!
ZION BABY! Two incredible baskets!
Reddish, the best Blue Devil out there right now. Problem for Duke right now is that their normally elite defense is getting shredded.
Dawkins showing out.
Really benefitted from a bad call on Reddish. Big play.
Agree on both counts.
Of course Zion probably should have had 2 fouls way early when he ran over a perimeter guy for a steal. Sort of balances out.
Yup… watching Duke too. Reddish coming alive at the right time.
AGREE WITH YOU JOHNB—-TACO HAS THE DUKIES 2ND GUESSING —-
He went out early with a 2nd foul but they got another big built physical interior guy named brown who has challenged Zion pretty well at the rim and in the paint. Brown kid has incredibly muscular upper body.
GOOD PT SCOTCH—–WHY DREW HAS TO BE IN CONSIDERATION FOR THE COACHING POSITION —-REALLY THINK PLAYERS WANT TO PLAY FOR HIM / RESPECT HIM
Probably watch the Cavs replay later bc I can’t rewatch Duke. Halftime looks like bucks having their way on offense. Not surprising I suppose. Duke looks like they could be in a competitive game. UCF playing zone. Tacko Fall kid presents a challenge Zion has not faced at this level. Looks to be bothered a bit by UCF length.
Love how this cavs team so rarely gives a crap when they are down. They just continue to play and continue to play and dont let the score affect them much. Its a testament to Larry Drew.
ANYBODY OUT THERE ?????????????????
HOW MANY ARE GOING TO BE “SURFING ” BETWEEN CAVS / “ZION ” SHOW COMING UP
GOING WITH MY “OCTOBER PLEAD —-WE WANT BONZI ” : )
WATCHING N.C. / WASH GAME——–SAID EARLIER SOME GUYS STOCK WILLRISE–SOME WILL FALL IN NCAATOURNEY—-I WANT TO SEE “MORE OF “LITTLE ” / N.C. —-HIS STOCK COULD BE ON THE RISE —-“UBER ATHLETE ” !!!—–GAME NEEDS SOME POLISH
I was starting to think this was going to be an embarrassment, but we’re back in this!
