Grayson Allen has drawn about five fouls in this half that have been...questionable.

[Matt Dillon]

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

I picked the Tubmeister's team in this game.

[Joneslab]

UNC Wilmington up by 3 over Duke at halftime.

The good news: they played out of their minds offensively. The bad: they can't play any better than that.

I feel like the Grayson Allen Flop Machine will take control in the second half, and when those threes start to rim out down the stretch Duke may be able to take control of the game.

Wilmington just put up an amazing half though.

I loathe overacting to sell a foul. Here and there, it was, historically, called things like "cagey" for a veteran player to do that. But, Allen reminds me of Andre Miller of Utah '98. Every shot he takes with a player in his zip code becomes a moving murder scene, with a shout of pain to draw the attention of the official.

Butler has come from behind to lead Tubby's Marauders by a point late in the 1st half.

That, and the fact that it's legal for a guy to jump into an airborne defender for a foul. I HATE that - even when our guys do it. It's so, so cheap.

The refs have taken over the Duke game. Protect the money.

[KevinHall]

Duke is playing with a lot more intensity in this half. Keep that up and UNCW won't have a chance.

[Katmendo]

This game has been ruined by bad calls.

Commentators commented on it in both halves so far. For that to happen from non partisan commentators in tournament game is indictment enough.

I'm out on this game. If a miracle happens, I'll catch the highlights, but this one is pretty well done.

Great game, crew. Way to be a factor in every play.

[Joneslab]

Solid adjustments made by Duke at halftime. You'd think they had a hall of fame coach leading them or something.

[KevinHall]

Butler and Colorado lead in their games. Duke seems to have control of theirs now.

[Joneslab]

One thing to remember about all these fouls: this is the Rick Pitino coaching tree. That's the way he coaches: foul and foul again and keep fouling.

There've been some questionable calls but most of these fouls are legit. It's part of UNCW's philosophy.

I agree...first half was terrible....Duke was in the double bonus when the game started

[UKtimefor9]

Allen has taken more FTs than the entire UNCW team

[KevinHall]

Butler up six now at the under 8 TO.

Colorado up 8 nearing the end of the 1st half.
