Let the madness begin......

Any chance Duke loses?

UNCW not passing the ball. Butterflies aside, they clearly didn't have sets prepared.

UNCW's uniforms are maybe the worst I've seen.

You don't see the green/teal/bright yellow color pattern that often.

[Joneslab]

UNCW's coach is Kevin Keatts, who I bet saw some stuff at Louisville...

[Katmendo]

That was a bad foul call against Puke.

Duke's defense = suspect

Duke's defense = suspect

Was never good, this year, but with their depth issues, I can see them coaching to be softer on the ball.

Not sure it matters with the insane amount of foul calls they get. Already 9 fouls called against UNCW. 3 for Duke.

Pretty sure they just stink defensively. Letting guys drive uncontested from 35-feet out and shoot lay-ups isn't any coaching strategy that I know of.

When you've got Allen and Kennard and Jones out there at the same time, you're not going to be able to stop much of anybody.

Wouldn't it be nice if there was some professional consistency with officiating? Imagine having a general idea of what is ACTUALLY going to be a foul. Imagine not having to pick up dice, roll them, and do trial and error on what was the "important" rule for THIS game.

It's a pet peeve when I hear people talk about having to adjust to how the game is called.

"....Ummm.. Okay, let's try this, this game. WAIT! WAIT!... that's a foul today! We've got to adjust!"

One of my least favorite things about Duke is how their managers all sprint out on the court the second there's a TV time-out and start working around K and his staff like Doozers from Fraggle Rock.

Drives me crazy. I get the military discipline he commands and all that, but come on. They're carrying out towels and Gatorade bottles.

Tubby's Techer's lead Butler 16-9 early in the 1st half.

[Joneslab]

UNC Wilmington has a guy named Devontae Cacok.

These referees are a joke...unbelievable calls going Duke's way
