Kentucky - 82
Duke - 75

I think it will be a close game, but when the game gets late -- I think the game will devolve into a lot of ISO-type plays at this stage of the season. And I think Ullis, Murray, and Labissier give them the edge in that regard -- particularly Murray.

Until Thornton wins the starting job, I think we're going to struggle getting high quality looks when the game becomes a possession-by-possession game late (i.e., Tyus Jones / Justise Winslow time last season).

These are good points. Could unfold this way.

I like Sky's post. I'm gonna go with that.

My wife had a setback yesterday and is back in the ICU. She's on a breathing tube and sedatives until they can remove some fluid from around her lungs. Prayers please.

You got the prayers, FTB, long as needed.

I was going to try something different this year and pick against Duke when I thought they would actually lose, but I just can't do it. I have never picked against Duke and I won't start now! Just an OF that won't sleep tonight, win or lose, and lives and dies with every Duke game.
It will be key for Marshall/Amile to stay out of foul trouble. I've said all along that the experience of Kentucky will be the deciding factor in this game, but I am going with Duke.
Go Duke!!

I am anxious to see how we defend them. Not just strategically, but how we actually do. I thought our D would be much stronger in the first two games. Maybe it's the new rules.

I've been going back and forth on who will win but I think I will be okay with the outcome as long as we play smart and stick together. If shots don't fall it's not the end of the world. But let's play with some confidence and give it our best shot.

JC for the life of me I don't understand why you post at THR. Those people are so confused.

Because most are my friends. Just like you and my other friends here.

I know Duke/UNC is a big time rival. But to be truthful, and I think I made it clear before, I don't like any team other than UK.

I just enjoy the ish out of talking to other fans. I love my buds at THR and I love my buds here. Sorry.

If you're good to me then I'll be good to you,

Trust me, people that know me either love me or hate me. That's fine.

We can't stay in front of them it's all lay ups. Would like to see some zone for a stretch. We ran it one possession.

Marshall is singly handily keeping us in it. Reminds me of Syracuse two years ago.
