Good story on Rivers (http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/6765968/duke-austin-rivers-north-carolina-harrison-barnes-connected-tobacco-road-college-basketball)and expectations on him for the upcoming season, although some people probably are not going to like what he says about HB and UNC.

Thanks for posting. Good article, and more positive toward Austin than some pieces we've seen recently that paint him as cocky and perhaps self-centered.

I like Austin's game, see the potential for even greater growth, and love his competitive spirit.

I sensed some undertone in the piece that Austin is perceived that way and despite being of a similar mold as HB, he needs to avoid those pitfalls.

Pretty much it shows that the danger is there of being cocky and self centered, but that he has the tools to avoid that if he so chooses.
