Great start by Duke! Two 3's already...maybe they've adjusted to the arena. Of course, Justise hasn't had a problem from distance so far.

OFC

Great start. It's amazing how much better the offense flows when shots are going in.

One thing I've noticed with Justice is that he rarely misses when he follows through on his shot. When he just lets it go, it doesn't go in.

Great to see one go down for Tyus. I feel like he needed that.

That did not look good for Justise. Not at all. It looked like the Achilles potentially, but I don't think he'd be up walking around if it had been that. Regardless, he was moving very gingerly going back to the bench. Not encouraging whatsoever.

We can't stop Wiltjer.

Also, have to finish those at the rim.

Justise back in the game.

Tyus seems much more active in this game. That's a good thing. Quinn is also handling the ball a bit more. I like that too. At least that's what it seems like to me.

We're in a pretty good spot right now. Tyus needs to knock down these FTs....the Zags have a little momentum.

I don't think they're going to double Jah much...we need to go to him as often as possible....other things will open up.

I thought that was an interesting stat that the first 8 point lead was the largest deficit of the tourney for Gonzaga. Let's keep it up.

Good time out. Settle them down, get Jah back in the game and go to him to start getting some field goals to fall. OFC

Yeah, we picked up two ticky-tack fouls and those guys one, but then Justise goes in and gets mugged with no call.

Offense has stopped moving and its 1 v 3 in the lane now...no wonder there is a scoring drought..

Plumlee is a foot from the goal and doesn't shoot. Jefferson leaves Wiltjer alone for a 3. Duke should be up by 12 points.
Run some damn plays and quit the one on one.

Too much 1 on 1. Jah needs to get the ball, but Sabonis is extremely physical against him, and it looks like it's going to be allowed.

This looks like the lazy disorganized team of early in the year....no zone so far...getting beat on the floor to each end.....need to get the intensity up and play like they know its a single elimination game. M Jones needs to just concentrate on the D end....no more shooting

Too much standing around on offense, playing that one on one pro ****. Jah looks like he ate too many tater wedges for his pregame meal, slow today.

We started off great and have been absolutely terrible since. Our offense is killing us right now and Gonzaga has all the momentum.

Gah Matt is like a TO every time he touches it on O. His 1 or 2 decent plays don't out way the bad to me

Sabonis kind of giving it to Jahlil. That was a hustle play for Sabonis. Need some momentum going into half.
