What a game. Not mistake free but well-played whistle to buzzer.
GAMEBALL: Duke vs. Carolina
- Thread starter BluePhil
- Start date
Lively said ,” Dukes house !”
Not even a debate . The closest would be the defense as a whole.
An 18 year old made a fifth year senior is personal you know what
Badcock just has that punchable face and I could not have enjoyed it anymore …although homo jay bilas like always try’s to ruin it with his bald headed poop shoot …I cannot STAND JAY BILAS
Lively, but Roach and Proctor played well against their experienced backcourt. I'm not going to brag but I was one of the few Lively supporters a few weeks ago. 
Haha @ poll choices.
If you appreciate defense and impact on the game, Lively was the difference maker tonight. Wow!

That's the Lively we need for the rest of the season!! If that's what we get, then our ceiling just went up a foot or two. He differently earned the gameball tonight!!!

When Roach played well down the stretch last season we were very solid at the one and the 5, 2 key positions. With Roach healthy, if Lively comes on strong I think we can make a run.
I got your receipt right here! 😂Lively, but Roach and Proctor played well against their experienced backcourt. I'm not going to brag but I was one of the few Lively supporters a few weeks ago.
Wow, I knew Lively's scoring wasn't why he was the difference maker tonight, but I'm rewatching it and his first points came w/ like 8 minutes left in the game!
No blasphemy to all-time, low-scoring-yet-legendary performances... but I'm not sure I remember a similar statline since Wojo's 1-point Sr Day game.

My dad used to make fun of Wojo. Said he rolled around on the floor like his junior high gym classes lol.
Rodman was one of the best rebounders ever. Let's not get carried away.
Yes but he was athletic as heck blocking shots. Lively is gonna get better only a freshman
May not be the same level or style but I get the comp. Not a scorer or big offensive game but has the athleticism to impact the game on defense and the boards.
His game last night reminded of how Zoubek played down the stretch in 2010. He stopped trying to be a scorer and just played D and rebounded. If Lively could just focus on those two things, defense and rebounding (offensive and defensive boards) this team can make a run. Hard for a freshman to have that kind of discipline - Z didn’t figure that out until about midway through his Sr year. But that’s where he will earn his money. And would make us a much better team.
Zoubs had a series of injuries that hurt his development. He didn't lack discipline. 2010 was a really veteran team, too.
Do you mean, like, figuring out his role? Yeah, unless you get handed the keys everybody has to figure out their role, and it might take freshmen a little longer.
The issue with Zoubek, along with injures, was conditioning. I remember his junior year, he would play very well the first 2-3 minutes he was in and then disappear. He just didn't have the stamina until his senior year.
A lot of big men have that adjustment. Injuries are what pushed that back for Zoub. He was nowhere near as highly ranked coming in as Lively, either. Lively's growth curve and ceiling project way faster and higher.
My dad the former coach was very impressed with Lively, Flip and Roach. If Lively keeps this up we may go places. Roach really was in attack mode, but still under control. Proctor had a very good game. Grandison made some key plays.
