MBB: Duke 74, Miami 76 Post-Game Thread

[Steven43]

I was a little better than K's grandson in high school and substantially better than him in my mid to late 20s and in no way could I have gotten minutes on an ACC team. I could have been a decent D2 player or maybe gotten minutes on a bad D1 team. But I couldn't guard a chair. I simply wasn't tall enough or strong enough to get minutes at upper level D1.

Well then you must have been a terror at YMCA pickup games!

Serious question: Do you think you could compete for minutes on an ACC basketball team?

Okay, it wasn’t really a serious question. Perhaps looking the part and playing the part are two very different things. 😊

Absolutely not. Not even close. My comment was meant to reflect the difference between Keels and the UM guard Moore in physique. Nothing more.

The more I think about it, I can’t believe Miami, FL was picked 12th in the ACC preseason poll and leads the ACC on January 11th at 5-0.
