Seems to be a recurring theme at the beginning of every season....cant stop guards penetrating...more zone needed although that wasnt that effective either in the first half.

Our zone was very effective..it was our bad offense leading to lay ups.

When Marshall is the best athlete for Duke this game, there is a problem. But I love what Marshall is doing.

I dont see how this was a #1 class - Kentucky kids seem to be a lot better. Overall more balance and court awareness

If we would go zone and make them jump shooters we would have a shot still.

They are just penetrating and dishing when the big steps up to help. If you can't keep them in front of you, you go zone.

Just turned it on. Sounds like Grayson was forcing it too much.

Nice to see Thornton getting some minutes. Looks like we are not rebounding that well.

Really like Ulis...harassing our ball handler into mistakes....and under the basket we are terrible rebounders again this year! :)

Guys important to remember at times like these that Duke won the frigging National Championship last year.

We sure have a lot of Debbie Downers on here tonight. The game ain't over and we will learn a lot from this game. Just the experience will do this team wonders.

Lots of work to do - the parts just dont fit yet. KY looks to be working much better together on both ends. Could be just one of those nights but the non-performance of the new high profile recruits is a bit unsettling.

This will get team's attention & K will have many learning sessions.

Don't compare Ingram to Winslow, not even in same league.

Yeah we can only get better. We are not a top ten team right now IMO. We just need some PG play from Thornton. Hopefully he developed nicely by the end of the season. It will do wonders!!

Duke cannot play much worse. I'm not trying to sell UK short here, but Duke is just going through the motions. The talent is there, but the fire and will? I dunno. And Grayson? He has to be sick or something. He looks like he doesn't want to be there.

I really don't see the Ingram hype. He may shock me since it's easy but he's not anywhere near what he was suppose to be. Also I don't ever remember looking this bad this early this will be a longggggg year

Literally no one for Duke looks impressive except for Plumlee who is having an unusually good game.

It's the 3rd game of a long season. A good learning experience. We're playing poorly and still not that far back. Keep fighting fellas.

We are really a soft team, other than Plums and Jefferson. Even Matt Jones is rather disappointing on D.

This could be a good learning experience for the young guys. Step it up or you are going to get man-handled by the better teams in the NCAA.
