Evans needs to play. He’s got too many attributes that can help us. Scoring. Energy. Thought his defense was actually pretty solid. Needs to play regularly.

There's no doubt. I think the upside of Evans' (partcularly offense), is too great to make him a two minute per game player.

Of course Jon is coach, but I do think Isaiah presented him an option yesterday. Does Duke go to a larger rotation or could we see Evans supplanting someone??

(BTW, @timo0402 good show as always. I left uplifted and optimistic about rest of season).

Not to further digress, but is there any way to petition ESPN/ACCN to not have Jon Crispin announce any more Duke games? He can not go 2 seconds without jabbering. He’s a less entertaining version of Bill Walton (may he RIP).

The talent level has dropped on announcers for sure. I wasn't crazy about Billy Packer and Al Mcguire but they knew the game and kept it interesting. Some of these new guys just ramble. Spanarkle is pretty good

Is it though? Less pressure at Stanford and his defense was always good . Not to mention he’s starting . Goldwire 2.0

I always liked him at Duke especially his defense. He didn't get many opportunities to shoot

The way we recruit, 3 and 4 stars are destined to not start at Duke. Some guys are okay with that, like Javin or Blakes. But most leave.

It is a beautiful, culturally rich community. I had some friends who lived a couple doors down from Clyde Jones many years ago.

I went to Durham’s 8th annual Iron Pour last night. I’d never even heard of it before. It was pretty amazing. I imagine that all y’all imagine that anyone working such a blue-collar job with molten iron must surely be a Trump supporter. They were surrounded by a bunch of liberal white people in flannel and skinny jeans oohing and awwing and fawning all over them while sipping artisanal microbrews and sharing their vape pens and pronouns.

That's pretty funny. Durham is a much prettier place than it was when I lived there. Looking forward to taking my daughter to Duke Gardens in the Spring. She's really into plants and flowers.

As far as Saxapahaw, about 10 years ago my sister-in-law (RIP) lived there with her girlfriend. And we've spent many nights there drinking and bullshitting with the old hippies. We just took a random trip yesterday and decided to see if her old friend still lived there. And sure enough, 10 years later. She is still there. She was really sweet, especially seeing how we just showed up with a two year old, knocking on her door. It really is a cook community. Despite the Harris Walz signs still everywhere.

You do see the word "parody" in the name of that account, right?
A lot of people will not.

To the last question, there’s no way we can possibly know from a propagandized, sensationalized tweet.

Secondly, it is worth looking into.

Thirdly, ending military waste would be a great uniting cause for liberals and the people who are always on their knees blowing the military.

You're falling apart datt. Enjoy your pronoun game while you can. The days of that being normal are almost gone. The adults are returning.

You’re not following. How I feel about claims of “fake news” is how you feel about pronouns. I was teaching you a lesson in empathy.

Pronouns have always existed. Unless you’re going to stop using the words I, me, my, mine, we, us, our, ours, you, it, and many more, I think they’re probably safe from you “adults.”

Spent some time in Saxapahaw today to get a look at how the gluten-free vegans are handling themselves. Friendly, as always, because I don't talk about politics with them. But definitely some blue bracelets. Didn't notice any bald ladies, probably because they just re-dyed their hair blue and pink. Is re-dyed, right? Anyway, they did have a sign in the ballroom that said, "God loves lesbians." That was cool. If you guys haven't been, it's a cool little community with some trails alongside the Haw River. Very liberal, but friendly. The prices at the general store are borderline rape.

Chris, I forgot Brakefield and Coleman are still playing college hoops even though I knew they are Roach’s classmates.

From what I've seen Blakes, Schutt are doing pretty good. Stewart is doing okay, nothing eye popping.(4 points 5 rebounds) Roach had a rough shooting night vs the Zags not sure how else he is doing. Mitchell is doing okay too; 12 and 5. Power not doing much and Reeves just getting mop up minutes. Coleman and Brakefield are doing fairly well, nothing earth shattering.
