I was more impressed with the rebound. Chase actually sealed his guy, used his body and got position. That's been his main weakness.

Despite our ability to make tough plays look easy, we keep making easy things look hard. Wide open alley oops and inbound passes need to be converted automatically. If we can clean up the mundane, we'll be a tough out.

I'm sorry Dickie V, that wasn't a good foul by Grayson...not to get his 2nd foul with 3 minutes left in the 1st half.

That Grayson foul would've had to be all ball if he effected his shot. The follow through was when he hit his hand. Of course, I'm following the logic of physics here which basketball rules don't always follow.

We should be up 10+ now but we've completely had a huge lapse the past couple minutes geez

They've outplayed Louisville so far but they are gonna have to limit the fouls and turnovers

Amazing half by Allen. Obviously going to need others to step-up -- b/c right now it's a one man team. Ingram / Kennard need to hit some shots to keep this going.

So....despite losing our composure for a few minutes we're up eight points at halftime.

If I had offered up that scenario one hour ago, is there a single person who wouldn't have taken it? I think not.

Great first half, IMO.

Jeter is giving us solid minutes! I hope this is the game that builds his confidence up! Thornton seems to be getting more and more comfortable each game

I feel very good at the half. Looks like K isn't planning on playing Matt...unless a couple of players foul out. The extra days rest will really help.

I'm totally comfortable wallowing in all of this success right now. I'm not even a little bit ashamed to say it. And yes, I know I'm not on the team. But man, it sure feels real from my easy chair.

Kids are doing great so far! Really like when Chase is in with Marshall, seems to give him confidence. Also, Louisville will try to clamp down on Grayson in the 2nd half, so Ingram and Luke are going to have to step up big. Hope Grayson can fight to get free and stay engaged.
God, I love these kids! Battle, Battle, Battle.
Go Duke!!

Louisville has really bodied Brandon up...and the physicality seems to have thrown him off. He needs to be stronger with the ball.
