Very likely the very best ACC game ever played, ultra high level, 103-100 in overtime...

"The Shot" tops them all. Even the NC State vs. Maryland game. Two of the top 5 college players in the college game played in those games. Christian and DT.

GoDuke!
 
I think we all fall into the trap of over-weighting results from tiny samples. You probably need 75-100 3pt attempts before you get a half-decent estimate of a player's true long range ability. Flagg is almost certainly better than his current 23% and Evans not as good as his current 50% rate.

And this is also why nobody should give up on Mason Gillis helping to win some games with his 3-point shooting...

I've certainly not given up on Mason. I root for all the Duke players. I just think he should earn minutes like all the players. If Kon, Evans, Harris, Man-Man and the other freshmen have to earn their minutes, so should the upper classmen. Having Mason playing at a high level improves this team immensely.

GoDuke!
 
So now we've seen the ceiling and the floor for IE. For a guy who can hit 6 threes in 11 minutes or have 0 points and 2 fouls in 10 minutes, I'm okay with this role.

This is kind of what I envisioned it would turn out for him. It's worth playing him every game to see if he has it going, and if not, you don't have to play him too many minutes. He's the heat check guy.

In the preseason on the pod this is exactly the role I spoke about for him. Put him in and see if he is hot. If he is, you let him cook! If not, that is ok and you don't need to play him as much as a result.

I do like that Isaiah did not feel the need to force it last night. He only took 2 shots in his 10 minutes of playing time and that is perfectly fine.

Fun with numbers: in the same role, Taylor King averaged 13.8 3PA/40 minutes as a freshman at Duke and Isaiah is currently averaging 15.6 3PA/40.

Shooters shoot.
