Amazing team win. No identifiable MOTM.

 

[Bob Green]

Proctor was my MOTM but a case can be made for Flagg or Maluach.

If you vote for the best player in the game it was flagg. But that is true for most games. People have strange ideas about what MOTM means.

I know what it means and I voted for Tyrese.

I know what it means and I voted for Tyrese.

Me too. There was more than one deserving candidate, but I thought Tyrese was MOTM.

GoDuke!

Caleb Foster. I could type multiple paragraphs about how awesome that kid is. So happy for him. If he can find his game again we instantly become natty favorites. He didn’t think tonight, he just executed. Pretty sure he has ADD, honestly.

 

[gep]

Tyrese for me. In addition to his stats, I thought his defense was superb.

 

[King of Defense]

Begovich. That was his first basket as a Blue Devil. He had two points last year on free throws.

What does it mean?

 

[weezie]

It's incredibly joyful to see Proctor smiling, drilling 3s, and lock down defending. I am so happy for him

 

[moonpie23]

i'm throwing in for Caleb....glad to see him hit some shots....if he' back, that strengthens the team.....

 

[CameronBornAndBred]

What does it mean?

You'll have to ask King of Defense, who I'm assuming is Begovich's dad.

 

[OZZIE4DUKE]

Tyrese.

I was surprised to see zero votes for Scion. There has been a lot of (well-deserved) Scion love around here as of late and I thought he had an especially good game.

2nd in minutes played with 29
3-3 FG
1-1 3PT
7-8 FT
Team high (tied with Cooper) 6 assists to 1 TO
Two rebounds and a steal

I went with Tyrese, but it was close. I thought Tyrese, while leading the team in points and three point bombs, also started up the PnR ManMan alley oop dunk train that has been absent the last few games. The oops became contagious. Even Cooper got in on the action, which is more often reserved for Tyrese and Kon.

sci·on
noun

1. a young shoot or twig of a plant, especially one cut for grafting or rooting.

Thankfully, Sion is neither young nor twiggy. (And as you point out, he's been a great part of this team.)

Oops, thanks! I really thought his name was spelled Scion, like the car.

Sion was definitely born around the time that Scions were available, and all season I have thought that was the origin of his name!

I have run into many people who share names with cars. It's a thing, or at least in Atlanta it is a thing.

Mercedes, Lexus, Hudson... et al

Shhhh everybody. Don’t tell him it’s pronounced See-on.

Or how to use the volume on whatever the game is playing on…
