Dukies in the NBA 2019-20

[phaedrus]

Seth Curry missed all four of his three-point attempts last night, which dropped his career three-point percentage slightly. He is now sitting fourth all-time at 43.51% - in a tie with Steph Curry, to the hundredth of a percentage point.

I cannot believe nobody is talking about the hilarious incident between Austin Rivers and his dad as his dad gets T'd up and ejected. Truly hilarious.

Jim Rhome certainly did. His highlight from last night.

Must be seen to be truly appreciated

Wasn't quite sure where to put this. Do we have a dedicated thread for Duke Alumni updates?

At any rate, Carlos Boozer has twin sons, Cameron and Cayden. The pair are currently in the 7th grade (Class of 2025). They play some basketball. Cameron, at least, seems to be developing some of the same skills as his old man. Did I say old? Carlos was a year ahead of me at Duke. Wow, I am really getting up there...

He should probably ask his sister for an invite to the Currys house for Thanksgiving.

I'm showing my age but I'm not sure why Austin had to get cheap laughs at the old man's expense.

As a son, I approve.

As a father, tsk, tsk.

Cognitive dissonance.

Based on my experience with my daughter, I think that she would have done the same thing if she had the chance. Duke students were more respectful of their parents way back when, but I’m not sure whether that’s good or bad.

I have to admit that I have a soft spot for Doc since he made sure that Austin got to Duke, which is how we beat Carolina on that huge shot.

I'm pretty sure from his responses that Doc appreciates the humor there. A fun memory for father and son to look back on decades down the road, I'm sure.

I think you are right. I see a son giving dad the needle.

And a dad that is going to get some revenge. Austin just won’t know when.

Jim Rhome certainly did. His highlight from last night.

Wow, I didn’t know Jim Rome is still around. I haven’t heard anything from him in YEARS. Do you remember the incident where Jim Rome kept calling Jim Everett (man, that’s a name you never hear anymore) “Chris”, in reference to tennis great Chris Evert? Classic.

Yeah, the Austin Rivers thing with his dad (Doc Rivers, coach of the Clippers) was awesome. Did you watch the whole video where both Doc and Austin were interviewed? Great stuff.

Neither here nor there but I have no recall of Jim Everett.

Chris Evert, I will never forget. Along with her rival Martina Navratilova.

Yes, I recall Rhome makin fun of Jim (Chrissy) and they wrestled on the floor. Driving today and had two sports options, listening to Rhome or David Glenn. Easy choice.

Jim Everett was the Rams' QB, and Rome was riding him. Everett appeared on the Jim Rome Show and, on camera, proceeded to beat the crap out of Jim Rome. They are about the same size.

JJ is having another nice night. He had a dud 3 or 4 games ago but was inserted into the starting lineup (in place of an injured Lonzo, I believe) and has been performing well. I'd hoped he'd be a regular starter in NO and produce another age-defying increase in PPG but seems unlikely...NO also needs to get things figured out if they keep JJ's career playoff appearance streak alive.

[Steven43]

Frank Jackson brought it tonight! 23 points in 23 minutes, 9-14 shooting, 4-7 from three, 5 rebounds, 2 assists. Not too shabby. Keep it up, Frank!
