It is absolutely wonderful to see Marshall have a game like this. He has worked so hard, understood and played his role and has taken a back seat graciously ever since he's been a duke. He is a gift and forever a Duke treasure. Never will be another like him. Young men like Marshall are rare and those like him will lead us. Player of the game . Lt. Marshall Plumlee. OFC
Absolutely love watching this guy play. So great. Great thoughts Sky.
It's so great for him to have a huge game like this, in a meaningful game that we needed.

I'm rewatching the game because they're airing a replay on ESPNU and I just noticed something that I didn't notice during the original airing of the game. Marshall blocked Anya's shot around the 8 minute mark in the second half and as he was running up the court to get back on defense he threw a little fist pump right after blocked Anya's shot. You gotta love his intensity, he's probably our most enthusiastic player because he's always jumping and cheering even he's not in the game
I LOVE seeing Plumlee play like he did last night. I'm hoping he channels Zoubek the rest of March.
Anyone see the interview with Plum on espn after the game? What a class act. Love this kid. He turned all the praise around to his teammates, saying what a brotherhood they have. This team is special. I have a very good feeling about our chances.

Our seniors in the front court next year are going to be rock solid. Hmmm, I wonder what happened last time we had two under-the-radar veteran front court guys....
Can anyone remember?
One was a great rebounding defensive guy, and the other was a rangy jack of all trades...
It's slipping my mind.

I love everything about this kid. Everything. He had a HUGE chant from the crowd going and I was loving it. Proud of his hard work.
He is such a boost of the bench for us. I've grown to love this dude...Someone said Zoubek!? Not quite - however, he's been awesome. He's a lot different than Zoub's.
He not getting hot at the right time, he's getting time at the right time. Marshall has sneakily been Duke's best per 40 rebounder and with all of the guards on O when he's in, post guys slack off and allow him to be unoccupied. You can't leave an active big unoccupied. Case in point, double-double.
Marshall is giving Jah plenty of help. He's like a 5th hitter in the lineup that can hit for average and power. Love what he's doing.

At the rate that he is going it will not be long before he joins the other 2 at the next level. He is so quick off the floor and looks really good doing it. Keep that motor running big guy and keep it in high gear baby.
