MOTM: Duke v. Clemson (Feb 18, 2018)

[JBDuke]

Who was Man of the Match in Duke's win over Clemson this afternoon?

[drummerdevil]

Javin for going after loose balls and ten rebounds in his first start

[Les Grossman]

But the D was the star of the game.
Second star was the Bigs off the bench: bolden DeLaurier and Jack W

[ncexnyc]

Allen had a great 1st half, but didn't play well in the 2nd. Carter was just the opposite.

So my vote goes to Trevon who played well from start to finish and set the tone with his defense.

[Bluedevil114]

Allen first half and Carter second half. Bench played great in limited minutes.

[Devilwin]

Allen had a great 1st half, but didn't play well in the 2nd. Carter was just the opposite.

So my vote goes to Trevon who played well from start to finish and set the tone with his defense.

I agree. Tre kept us ahead when no one else could hit. I love Grayson but he did not have a good second half at all. I voted Trevon

[Bob Green]

I voted for Duval who played under control. His stat line was decent: 12 points, 4 steals, 3 assists, 2 rebounds, 2 turnovers.

[Furniture]

Tricky! Great effort, steals, under control and an efficient 5 from 11.

[Ima Facultiwyfe]

I'd like to vote for Coach K for playing so many guys.
Love, Ima

[devildeac]

Let's see:

1/2 for GA and 1/2 for WC?

Or should it be 1/3 each for TD, GA and WC?

[jv001]

I couldn't pick anyone because of offense and every player played pretty well on defense, so I voted for Trevon because he played a good all around game in front of a very tough Clemson crowd. GoDuke!

[SupaDave]

Wendell - if just five of his shots drop in the first half he ends the game with 20 plus for like his umpteenth double-double. The 3 he hit was critical.

[MrPoon]

Carter for me for getting out of the first half funk and playing stronger in such a physical game, lots of growing for a freshman. The FT shooting and the and-one late were absolutly huge.

GA of course was great early and Duval had one of his most consistent games we’ve seen. Really respect how hard these guys are playing without arguably the best player in the country.

[kAzE]

I voted for Javin. I think he's a big part of the team's new defensive identity, and his constant effort is infectious. He challenges every shot and dives for every loose ball. I think he made a big case to be the 6th man going forward these past few games. Bolden has also played well, but Javin's defense has been better.

[flyingdutchdevil]

Duval had a good game offensively and a great game defensively. One of the first times where he consistently used his length on D to dispute the Clemson O.

[elvis14]

So good to see Wendell, Duval and Javin have such good games in support of our MOTH, Grayson Allen!

[jv001]

GoDuke!I heard Grayson called many things, but never The MOTH. A new superhero. I like it. GoDuke!

[elvis14]

MOTH, argh! Spellcheck...or typo, I don't know which. I'd love to say something cool about a moth and say that's what I meant and all that but there just isn't anything all that cool about a moth (I mean, do we really want our senior captain chewing through wool socks?)

[YmoBeThere]

MOTH = Man of the Half?

[elvis14]

MOTH = Man of the Half?

That could have been it, a slip based on Grayson's 2 halves! Too funny
