He is -- in general -- against the tendency to gush about any team, and tends to point out all teams' weakenesses. As a former big man, he also has a soft spot for the inside game, which is usually not Duke's strength. But I never detect a bias against Duke as a school, against its players or against its coach.
I find Elmore interesting, educated and erudite. I like him in combination with Mike Patrick, who IS gushing. The two of them are a nice contrast.
