With the team of the decade, we were almost a first-round exit last year remember? Duke is not going to blow everybody out or yet have a great 40 min game every time out. I don't think that changes who this team is. FSU barely got past the cheats last night at home. Just can never tell game to game and that's not limited to duke.

My point is tempering the expectations of this team. They aren’t as high as many think and much of that is consistency, or lack thereof.

That bad feeling is creeping into my gut. Felt like Duke would come out focused now they are forcing it

Prime time for Alex or Matthew or Baker to come in and hit a few threes. Ugly ugly game. But we will pull it out. Down two. Tough to watch. But we will win.

Btw Duke won the first round by 30+ points last year. This team won’t do that, and I wouldn’t expect it. Yes last year had more talent and fell short of expectations, no arguing that. THIS team isn’t as good as some here and elsewhere are touting. That can change obviously but when you don’t have a high ceiling as a team, it’s harder to develop throughout the season...

I hear you, but vegas still love them to cut down the nets, don't mean it will happen, but they see something. Unless you are Baylor or Gonzaga playing the youth YMCA teams, everybody else has questions that are yet to be answered. Only time will tell. For me, my expectations is to see my boys here in Atlanta. Time will tell though for sure.
