sabonis has an edge, he better prepare himself to get destroyed in the second half by okafor. Tyus Jones reminds me a lot of a more composed frosh bazz

If the Zags keep on fouling at this rate they're going to put Dook at the line pretty soon, and that won't be good thing.

Though the refs have been calling a few lately on Duke now.

It's 4 fouls apiece right now.

Tyus Jones strikes me as a smaller, better version of what people thought Tyler Ennis was at Syracuse.

Tyus Jones is really good. bazz like. Still seems like they're letting Dook get away with a lot of physical contacks with their traps. That's going to be problematic if they let them continue to do that. Good thing that Zags were able to get out of that last trap and get an easy basket.

How was that last play not a foul? He completely bumped him when he went to steal the ball. It is that type of physical play that I don't feel is called evenly. If they call that foul, it gets Dook to pull back a little bit. By not calling that type of play Duke will continue to be really aggressive.

Saw that coming. Okafor always barrels into people. Dumb play by Sabonis.

Dumb to keep Sabonis out there with 2 fouls and Okafor on the bench.

Mark Few needed to take a page from Jim Calhoun's book, keep you players on the bench who have 2 fouls in the first half.

Most coaches do that. Not like it was a JC innovation. But agree Sabonis should've sat.

A lot coaches don't do that, granted many do. Sabonis will likely play tentative in the second half, or end up fouling out quickly. I hope not.

Leave it to a Dook fan to misspell "recruits." :)

Side note, do they really have kids named Cox and Kuntz coming in? The 13-year old boy in me finds that hilarious.

I think that was his intent, but Duke really play them tough forcing them to not get a shot off in time to go for the two for one.

The sign was referring to the kids holding the sign being future recruits. That said, no way they were cox and cuntz. Had to be fake.
