UK vs. Duke game thread

The joke's on you. We all agree Alex played a good game.

Yup.

1st half, Lee got the memo.
2nd half, Alex got the memo.

Case in point, rebounding slowly improved as the game went on. And yes they had plenty of help from Humphries and the guards. Nicely done!

Is that a joke or are you watching a different game?

9 pts, 7 rebounds 1 block 0 turnovers. Not a bad day in my book.

And Ulis is a superstar. SUPERSTAR.

No doubt about it. A real stud and the toughest guy in the game at 5' 9".

In the end the rebounds were even 39 apiece. Duke out rebounded UK by 7 to end the game.

Tyler Ulis- smallest guy on the court played the biggest!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Poythress apparently almost ripped one of his teeth out in the net.

I couldn't tell what happened on that play. Would have been spectacular if he would've left an incisor just hanging up there.

I don't know about all of that?? He's a senior....come on, he should be better than that. I look for his minutes to go down as the season goes on. I'm sorry if expressing my opinion is wrong but he's not a NBA caliber player like the rest of his teammates.

I didn't see it, but I guess he'll call his Dad to fix it.

He'll get a shot because of his athleticism, but it doesn't matter. He just needs to help this team, and he did tonight.

Impressive game. Didn't play that great (especially Skal) and still won easily. Keep Duke off offensive boards and it would have been a 20 point game.

Ulis is awesome, Murray will keep getting better, Skal should get tougher and smarter, Alex will continue to improve....there is a LOT to like about this team.

This Kentucky team just beat Duke rather easily. Let that sink in.

Outside the Kansas shellacking, that game right there was as pleasing as anything UK did last year.

I'm beyond pumped. My sports hate for those SOBs runs hot.

We just handled Duke and Skal played awful. Wait until he figures it out. Lee played very good other than fouling, Poythress was aggressive in the second half, Humphries did more than what we can ask for, and our guards were sensational. Once Skal gets there we could be scary good and very exciting.

Poythress vs. Net.

Interesting comment given all the observations about the Harrisons:

K on Ulis: “I admired his presence throughout the game and his face throughout the game. It was the look of a winner."
