i want to see what Holmgren does in the second half after spending the majority of the 1H on the bench. they say he's the best prospect in years, and his size and skill are evident- but does he have that killer mentality that KD had as a freshman at Texas? you know that KD would come out of the locker room on a mission on this situation. now, Holmgren isn't the alpha male of his team like KD was, but i still want to see that fire, that desire to take over the game after having been forced to sit and watch the Paolo Banchero show for the entire first half.

Timme's struggles against size & athleticism will be a hurdle for him to get run in the NBA. 

i feel like Timme could either be an end-of-the-bench journeyman in the NBA, or he could go to a club like Barcelona and play the Gasol role for 15 years and be a legend.

This Banchero dude seems like a sure fire bet if I’m an NBA gm. He has essentially the same skill set as Holmgren but with an additional 80lbs. I like Holmgren, but there is a real possibility he’s too frail to live up to his potential in the big leagues.

He looks as ashy as KD, I’ll give him that.

Clean block. 

Refs are overreacting -- wish college basketball would go to 6 personal fouls like NBA to compensate for poor officials.

I just hate to see a Duke player get called on a non-foul.

/sarcasm

Especially in Coach K's final year when you know they're going to be battling the refs all season.

It's fucking absurd that they haven't yet. The best players in the NBA and in college play the same amount per game.

Both of these teams are polished 

Unbelievable early season CBB for sure.  Amazing what great coaching does for a basketball team -- really glad Beard is at TEXAS now...
