That dunk from VJ over Mark Few's son was vicious

Gonzaga beat Baylor. Roach and Edgecombe shot 4 for 20.

Maine is 0 and 2 not sure they're a good team. But a good win. We have good teams coming up. Looking forward to it. Kentucky, Kansas, Auburn, Arizona. I would be happy with 3 of 4.

Good win. Was happy to see Coach Scheyer play 10 guys, I hope this continues through January at the very least especially when Duke is up 20 or more points with 10 minutes left in the game.

Wont be surprised to see Brown start on Friday and onward until Maluach improves, he made quite a bit of freshman mistakes last night which is expected. Brown just has a tendency to be at the right place at the right time.

This Duke team is just going to seriously overwhelm teams. Just too much firepower everywhere.

Maine actually had a decent scout on us too that really will help us going forward. They learned to go straight up on Khaman and seemed like they made an effort to cut off Cooper going left as much as they could (except for the highlight dunk)…is he weak going right or something? And drive on Evans.

Love Maliq Brown. What a freaking luxury having him as a backup big.

We will be a good 3pt shooting team. We need need to run more fluid offenses so Cooper isn't catching at high post and trying to do 1 on 1 iso as much... Proctor will do great off the ball. The "transfers" are exactly what this team needs. Each role they will play is perfect. Sion i think needs to be a bully once he gets in... Evans I fear, even though it's 1 game, will go through a down spirited slump from lack of PT. Hopefully he puts in the work to break the rotation. He's such an amazing potential and talent, I just think he is knocked back due to style play and body size. He's used to being better, now Kon is better and better... still early. But great game 1 win. Let's keep progressing and keep winning... Eyes on 6.

They can’t do anything about crime or the rats on the Subway, but they can come in your home and kill your pets. The judge that signed this warrant, if there even was one, should be disbarred
First the Haitians now this. Our pets are no longer safe. I wish my pets had opposable thumbs so I could teach them how to use a gun

This team is going to be fun to watch. We played fast on offense, and when is the last time we had a relevant full court press? I am still not completely sold on our front court, but it's early. We sure do have a lot of potential weapons. I hope Jon uses them regularly.

I agree Chris, their quick guards gave us some trouble as will other teams with a similar backcourt.

Grayson Allen scored 14 points in a 118-116 win over Philadelphia.

RJ Barrett had 16 points, 10 assists and six rebounds in a 121-119 loss to Denver.

Kyrie Irving scored 27 points in a 134-127 loss to Indiana.

Brandon Ingram scored 27 points and added seven assists in a 118-100 loss to Portland.

Jayson Tatum led Boston with 28 points, nine assists and six rebounds in a 123-93 win over Atlanta. Jalen Johnson led the Hawks with 20 points and 11 rebounds in the loss.

Would be interested to see the +/- but it seemed like Duke played better when brown was out there. No offense to khaman who played his role well as a freshmen.

Impressions
1. Flagg some crafty passes. Mal can finish. Mal with some nifty blocks but can get out of position.
2. Gillis is less one dimensional than I thought nice drive and finish. Doesn't make many mistakes.
3. Kon sheesh. Fundamentals. Scoring machine. He has great body control on drives.
4. Foster is nice
5. Their guard quickness did bother us.
6. Cooper has some nice low post moves.
7. Sion the tank, but still in control. He does appear to travel sometimes, but maybe its just his size.
8. Gillis has a sweet stroke from 3, he might be my favorite player. Smooth and steady vet.
9. Proctor hit some key threes.
10. I think Brown will come up big in our bigger games. I am really looking forward to seeing our guys against Kentucky, Kansas, Auburn, etc.

Never a bad thing to open the season with a 34 point victory. Very different team from last years squad.

Kon for national player of the year

Someone mentioned Cooper limping post game? Maybe just a cramp. He said it was a cramp. Whew.
