Seems like Curry has been playing for Duke for the last decade.

Great W. We're much better than last year. Should be a fun season.

UK, at least right now, just doesn't look that great. Certainly not a title contender at this point, but I assume they'll improve a lot throughout the course of the year.

Normally don't root for Duke, but UK are a bunch of scared babies. Hell ya Duke!

Yeah he's a physical specimen. Rasheed Sulaimon has like a 40 pound difference in weight and 3 inches shorter and he just couldn't box him out lol. Once Poythress figures out how to use his skills better he'll be deadly.

Their 3 main freshmen were all impressive last night. Noel and Goodwin played pretty well.

Wiltjer has to get his shit together. They need him to do something similar to what he did against Maryland night in and night out If they're serious contenders.

Goodwin didn't really play all that great. He's really out of control a lot of the time and he needs to tone himself down, which I'm sure Cal will get him to do. You could see some of his natural scoring ability but he's not there yet.

Wiltjer's problem is he cannot create his own shot one bit. We basically just stuck Kelly on him and told him not to help and he couldn't really do anything. I think he has potential to be a Steve Novak-like player (his shot is THAT good), but he needs a PG to get him open looks, and even with Harrow I'm not sure UK has that type of player.

He wasn't great but he showed flashes. And he was kind of playing the PG role with Harrow out and that's not his game at all. He still grabbed 6 boards and dished out 4 assists while getting to the line a good amount.

Noel is awful to me on offense..Jesus it's like he's never been taught a post move.

Jamari Traylor is a STUD. I see so much T-Rob in him it's crazy. Except he could be a better leaper.

First Ohio State game I'm actually getting to watch (watching replay), and Aaron Craft looks really good

BJ Young is a boss. Not only saying this because he beasted against some scrub team last night either.

Gonna be a top 5 pick come June.
