    Can we get a MOTM thread so I can push that button for Mark Williams?

    (Also want to call out Roach for having quietly improved a lot as a shooter. Both of our freshmen guards are really playing well!)

    They look like a Duke team now. They got a little sloppy at times, but it's hard to maintain focus with a big lead.

    Very nice, comfy win over a bubble team. The resume is getting better and better. Still plenty of work to do. But clearing the short-rest hurdle was big. Now we need to focus on closing out our home schedule with a win before being road warriors next week.

    Also, the efficiency margin was notably larger than expected, which should give us a bit more of a boost than the UVa game did.

    This team is trending towards an at large NCAAT bid. They’re starting to look like an NCAAT team.

    Great game!

    If Duke beats Louisville Saturday, look out.

    11-8, 9-6

    Let’s Go Duke!

    Duke continues to roll.

    Game recap, plus five observations and player of the game.

    This team is peaking at the right time.

    Mark Williams is just getting better and better. He knows what he can and cannot do. The team has figured out their roles and playing excellent team basketball. They still make mistakes and did not rebound well at times- but an impressive win. Need to keep it going.

    I enjoyed that Duke game more than most games over the last decade.

    Is that ridiculous?

    Seeing Duke make *dramatic* strides like this is enormously satisfying.

    Seeing Mark Williams make dramatic strides like this all the more so.

    Mark Williams with a signature performance. It was a perfect match-up for him but he looked very confident and athletic. How about that behind the back pass?

    I feel like this was the best Steward/Roach combined performance, especially the first half. If they both play well, we are so tough. Jordan also was tough but I expect him to be tough, him knocking down 2 3s is a bonus.

    The defense in the first half was excellent. It’s hard to stay vigilant when you are up 20 and the opponent tries to junk it up with frantic pressing. We didn’t handle that pressure well for a while and got away from our poise.

    Another must win in the books. On to the next must win.

    We have really improved, let’s keep it going!

    Duke definitely looks the part of an NCAAT team right now. No high seed would want to see them in the first round should Duke make the dance.

    Great to see Williams’ confidence and effectiveness improve steadily as a freshman big. Love his enthusiasm. energy and team mentality. They all seem much more connected as a Team recently. Props to Scott for predicting Mark’s big role tonight! Go Devils!!

    M2ost enjoyable to watch--great ball movement, good communication on defense and playing with a good amount of physicality.
    Just keep getting better

    Goldwire

    I was getting nervous when Cuse had a chance to cut it to 12 and turned it over and then Goldwire hit the first 3 of the half to push it back to 17, at the 12-minute mark. It was a momentum killer IMHO.
