    Pretty clearly RJ, in my opinion. Alex certainly stepped up as the second banana we needed, but RJ was the man, and carried us for a long while tonight. Honorable mention to Javin and Marques. The former played hard all game, and had lots of positives tonight, and fewer negatives. The latter came off the bench and really made a difference with his rebounding down the stretch.

    I moved. Now 12 miles from Heaven, 13 from Hell
    I voted for RJ, but AOC was close. And don’t forget about Javin Bolden, who had 9 points, 3 blocks and 15 big rebounds.

    My heart was with AOC, but my head with RJ, gave it to RJ. Totally digging AOC getting some votes though.

    AOC! Someone had to start making shots, other than RJ, and it was AOC. We don't win without his second have shooting.

    Now that Joey Baker will play, we need him to get into the flow of the games. And I predict that Jack White will regain his touch and make more three's this season.
    Ozzie, your paradigm of optimism!

    RJ is so good. But my vote goes to the coaching staff for sliding true into the middle of the zone to start the second half. Those couple possessions changed the momentum of the game.

    I was wondering why that new kid RJ O'Connell wasn't listed as a choice.

    I've got RJ, AOC, and Bolden in that order. Bolden's play down the stretch really helped us close out the game. Alex's shooting was critical in the 2nd half. But RJ was the man all game long. Superb effort.

    Coach K played that game like a Stradivarius.

    Every stop was pulled. Roller coaster, emotions high, some players struggling, some getting their bearings. And even Zion on the sidelines, knowing his every facial expression is monitored, when he finally began to enjoy the game with his brothers, well, THAT was quite an evening.

    RJ, the engine. AOC the piston tonight.
    Nothing incites bodily violence quicker than a Duke fan turning in your direction and saying 'scoreboard.'

    I voted for AOC because his shooting turned our offense around. But RJ, once again, was really the glue of the team. Also thought Bolden was critical.

    Same, but I had Jav/Ques tied for the 3rd star of the game. Jav for playing solid D without fouling(?!?) for the first 25 or so minutes and Ques for the huge rebounding to close them out.

    Duke is undefeated when Baker plays. He got my vote too.

    Moreover, Duke has shot threes well in every game he's played ...

    I went for AOC because he performed so much better then usual. RJ also played great but does this pretty much every game he plays. For Alex it was his first game he’s impacted this year.

    RJ was clearly the MOTM.

    Really glad to welcome AOC to the 2018-2019 basketball season.
