Duke/Arkansas game had the following swings: -Arkansas landed first punch -Isaiah Evans heat check to punch back -Cam Boozer 10-0 run -Duke extends lead to 13 -Arkansas 7-0 run to end half -Arkansas 25-12 run to start 2nd half -Duke 27-11 run to close 2nd half All the fixings!

Cam Boozer’s personal 10-0 run against Arkansas in 80 seconds of gameplay: -Corner 3 -Drive and layup -Steal and assist for Sarr dunk -Rebound -Pick and pop 3 [Insert Jack Scott timeout meme here]

He may get overlooked but Nik Khamenia made all the little plays against Arkansas. Provided a spark in the first half to keep game close and had some timely rebounds and hustle plays in the second half. He’s a winner and provides a sense of calm for this team.

More likes on my tweet and I don’t even do this for a living.

Duke’s literal blueprint this season is to have multiple playmakers and guys that can handle the ball at different points throughout the game.

A mostly lazy take. Per 40 Minutes APG: Cayden Boozer: 7.2 Cam Boozer: 5.7 Nik Khamenia: 5.2 Caleb Foster: 4.4 Pat Ngongba: 4.2 Isaiah Evans: 3.6

Don’t ever let the media tell you to “get used to it” when being nostalgic about college basketball while they let others dismantle the game we loved. Hope Jeff enjoys the steak dinner and $50 casino voucher from Player’s Era festival co-founder Seth Berger!

Duke currently has two of the top three most valuable players in the country, per BPR at https://t.co/cegyfz96ax. Cameron Boozer leads the nation, in part because of his ridiculous stat-line. And Patrick Ngongba has been a dependable secondary star, averaging 13/7 on 70% FG.

I’ll add one more: Patrick Ngongba’s breakout continues. Meets his averages again in this game!

Greg Paulus’s basketball career did not end how it should have. He could have easily distanced himself from Coach K and the program over the years but has remained a class act. Wish him the best in coaching and I’m sure there always a spot for him on the bench in Cameron.

Minutes: DH - 20 Nik - 24 Dame - 22 Do it again!

Agreed.

What I’d like to see for Duke during the Brotherhood Run: 1. DH/Nik/Dame all play 20+ mins in each game 2. Slim continues to be highly engaged on defensive end 3. Another DH heat check game (15+ points) 4. Dame gets more comfortable in halfcourt 5. Positive Iffy mins!

Dan Hurley won back-to-back national championships and Duke basketball is still one of the first things he thinks about when he gets out of bed.

Duke’s offensive/defensive concepts are ahead of individual player performances at this point in the season. Credit to Jon Scheyer for implementing the blueprint first with this year’s group. The individual performances will come but it’s nice Duke doesn’t have to rely on them.

The only coach/program in college basketball held to this high of a standard.

Sign me up for the two PG closing lineup with Cayden Boozer and Caleb Foster anytime Duke has a 6-8 point lead late and has to extend. Going to be very effective in ACC play when teams hang around (especially on the road) and Duke can slowly put them to sleep.

Update: 9 wins in a row at MSG. Tough day to be a bookmark.

Duke is 9-1 in their 10 games at Madison Square Garden, winning by an average of 15.33 points. Cameron North.
