Every time Jabari shoots I think it's going in. Such a fun player to watch.
Nice win. Nice depth. Better FTs.

This team will be close to unstoppable if we work out box outs and rebounding.
I love Semi's play tonight - I hope he turns this into a regular spot in the rotation - keeps Hood from having to slide over to the 4 so much
That could be because most of the time that he shoots, it IS going in. He is so fun to watch. Hood isn't so bad either and I am enjoying the way the team is moving the ball around offensively. And when Andre is going off, look out. If Dre gets crowded this year, he looks much more likely to put it on the floor and create something. Fun team to watch.
We played fine, but what was with all of the empty seats/bleachers?
We still missed too many free throws, but other than that, everything was good.
Great rebounding. 42-28. Nice to see the team continue to improve.
Last years team was really good but boy did we struggle sometimes against this type of team. This team is killing it!
After the game, Coach K expressed his disappointment in the student turnout.
As I did myself as well.......I'm 1500 miles away in New Mexico and would killllllllllllll to attend a FREE Duke Basketball game!
I cant believe my eyes when there are empty bleacher seats at Duke games????
I'm tired of hearing the "We had to study for tests" excuse, so what gives Duke undergrads?
Not sure Monday is the best night for a game against an opponent that isn't a big draw on its own. When my kids were at Duke (last decade) Monday was one of the few nights that seemed to be dedicated to studying.
Still, it did look very sparse. Hopefully it will pick up a bit tomorrow.
No excuse for empty seats... This team is so entertaining... I was streaming periodically at work... Caught Jabari's dunk on the fast break... Shaazaaaammmm!!!
spot on....
there is often a ton of class work due just before thanksgiving
it was a monday night game against a cupcake
the people on here calling out the students need to get off the high horse...especially after the students packed the student section in WW the past two weeks...
take your pick...would you rather an empty WW and packed for UNCA in cameron, or the other way around?
students don't have infinite time to give.
1200. DDMF.
Easy win allowed us to expriment and give new players PT. Five players with 10 or more and Semi got some burn. Good for him and good for the team.
What more can be saidd about Jabari? Great talent and he will only get better if he can stay healthy.
Duke 91 -- UNC-Asheville 55
Good shooting from 3-pt continues. Andre's shot looks great.
Is a 3-pt shot a good one for Semi? I don't know his game well enough to judge, but he was open, went 2-2, and the shots looked pretty good. 10 points and 5 rebounds in 14 minutes...Semi begins to carve out a role and some playing time?
Jabari had his 21 points and 10 rebounds...in 19 minutes! 6 Turnovers, but I agree with Doris Burke that he is trying to get others involved and make plays for now, and that he can be more careful as the season goes on.
Don't know who else is good in their conference, but UNC-Asheville has some talent and could get to the NCAA Tournament; they settled down, and actually ended up with fewer turnovers (15) than Duke (16).
