Yeah him and Miller are really good already

If Lonzo Ball got a caricature at the local fair, it would look like Andre Curbelo

add me to the votes of Duke stinking

Miller making it rain

Gonzaga is clearly on a tier by themselves imo. Experience, talent, depth, coaching. Maybe Baylor can prove to be in that tier as well. But I look at every team past that and see issues.

Super sad that game had to be canceled. Or was it just postponed?

As soon as I turn it on Illinois has a terrible stretch. Maybe Iā€™m the jinx?

Virginia Tech being ranked 16 is a joke when Michigan couldnā€™t sneak in

I donā€™t understand why Duke is so bad at offense. They all stand around the perimeter watching each other. I know that turning over your whole roster every year is toughā€¦but these guys have played basketball before, right?

Agree. Hits especially hard when it is such a short noncon

Cameron crazies make a difference apparently

Matthew Hurt looks like an extra from Oh Brother Where Art Tho

So MSUā€™s defense is looking a lot less elite between this game for Duke and MSUā€™s last couple games

I think itā€™s basically just come down to Purdueā€™s recruiting falling off over the past couple of years. It looks like itā€™s rebounding with his 2020 and incoming 2021 class though.

First PSU game Iā€™ve watched this year. Have they been good from 3 all year? I know that 59% is insane, but their movement off the ball has impressed me thus far. Was not expecting that.

Yeah should we be more concerned about PSU or is VA tech just bad at defense?

Yeah they missed on all their top targets for a couple years, similar to what happened to Michigan during the Beilein dip

Perfect example of why I hate ESPN and the NBA.

Their crawl is mostly about Lebron being hurt because some other player said he wasnā€™t clutch.

Give me an effing break.

Yup, itā€™s had breaking news level real estate on their ticker for hours.

Donā€™t forget ā€œJames Harden open to 76ers tradeā€ which is somehow even less newsworthy than Lebron saying stuff about a game 2 years ago.
