Good podcast as always. I do think there is a bit of an overreaction from rolling a very average ASU team. We were on fire in the second half. Duke has always run an offense that has been reliant on 3's, and when we are hitting them we are near unbeatable. I've also seen our offense grind to a halt when the threes stop falling. See our round of 32 game last year, or the Zion/Kentucky game for examples of us being on fire. I do think this is a final four team, maybe better with some luck. But I am still wait and see when the bigger teams come to play us. I'd say 35 and 5. I think the potential to be dominant is there, but I don't think we will always be nearly as hot as we were the other night. But I certainly like what I see so far, and there are a lot of weapons and depth. And the defense is there, at least so far. Stay healthy and we should be in the final four.
Yea so I think my point is the first half to me. We didn’t hit anything and we were still up 16 due to our defense. That to me was more impressive than anything.

Almost official game day thread- Arizona state

It’s only one game, and Arizona St doesn’t appear to be that good, but they aren’t The Little Sisters of the Poor either. And as Hurley said in the postgame, Oh Shit!

I think last season left a bitter taste in Jon’s mouth. So he built a team of men, that aren’t chumps, around a freshmen class that we think is loaded.

This could be a really special team.
