One big glaring issue - no one can break this D down. Again they'll win but damn they need to figure it out soon. ACC play is in no time.....

Again they look awful. Keep it up and they get beat. Allen looks like a different player.

Pathetic effort. Tatum looks asleep. Why aren't they working Tatum and Jefferson down low?

They aren't playing like they'll win, Tennessee State looks more confident and playing great D

I hate the lay off, Fing hate it. I thought it was a blessing this season but obviously it's been anything but that, very short term anyways. Obviously get the win, learn and move on and short term means very little.... BUT damn, every season (speaking off top of my head) this game is brutal.

What can be done about the lay off? Probably nothing, I get that. But I still hate it

I was in no way comparing us to Kentucky lol I was implying trying to guard them if we're having trouble with TSU on the perimeter .but we will be fine just off night...I hope ..it's shaping up like one of them nights though nothing's dropping .I'm actually getting concerned did we practice any????

The longer we let them stay in the game the more confident they are going to get and if it goes down to the wire it's any bodys game. Got to make free throws. OFC

What do these guys do in practice anyway? Are they just shooting around? They don't look at all like they've had full on practice. This almost looks like the first game of the season for them.

No effort and focus, shows in poor free throw shooting and lack of offensive rebounds with the number of missed shots we have

We must remember, we've restarted the season multiple times this season, I'm pretty sure things will play out swell in the end

Not worried about this team despite the poor game other than Matt playing over frank... matt shouldn't play more than 15 min with a healthy team

When the offense isn't clicking get the defense clicking on a couple of stops and get the offense back in gear. 2 good stops and 2 great 3's by Luuuuuuke. OFC

I am starting to wonder if Bolden will help this team. I understand he was injured but when he is in the game he just doesn't look like he has much of a "Duke Motor"!

To me he looks out of shape, he ran the court so well in al his HS all star games.

With that said, he has high NBA talent.

He's always been pretty nonchalant on the court. That's his MO. He's just a bit too relaxed.
