I hate Dook with a passion. These young guys are only going to get better. They will be a tough out for sure

Why? Aside from being a UNC fan apparently.

Okafor is Duncan when we talk about offensive moves, but he is weak on both boards, and cant defend at all. Bigger teams like Louisville will eat his lunch, and this is coming from a Duke fan.

Louisville was pretty raw IMO.

You can take Harrell out of his game.

true. A true freshman center making those kind of shots is amazing.

Really? You're not going to get any bigger than Wisconsin except for Kentucky.

Great game by Duke tonight. It was hard fought and even though the score was close at times, the outcome never really seemed in question. Duke shot a much higher percentage around 60% compared to Wisky at around 40% because they got off much better shots all night. Loads of easy buckets created by Duke.

The hype was the matchup of the big men and Okafor did not disappoint, but the player of the night was Tyus Jones. Huge game by him.

Also noteworthy, Winslow never really got it going. He had the one three (I can remember), the big dunk, and the awesome block (all ball) and really not much else. Sheed came in off the bench and stepped up big time however. Plumlee was also solid when Okafor left with foul trouble. He's going to be key for Duke when/if they cross paths with Kentucky and their frontline.

I was impressed with Wisconsin's shooting and their defense was great in stretches. Hope they win the rest of their games and would love to see a rematch of this game in March.

Okafor was in high school last year. He will be a stud on both sides of the ball eventually. With his size and athleticism i agree he needs to improve the rebounding. He just needs to get more physical there i think.

You do realize that Wisconsin is a bunch of skinny white boys down low right?

After 6 games, Louisville is #2 in the nation in rebounding. Before tonight, Wisconsin was #135.

There is a difference between big and physical. Wisconsin is big, but Montrezl Harrell and company is big and physical.

Louisville is very raw. Not a great offensive team by any stretch of the imagination. I see UK working them over. You can't out-athlete a team with better athletes.
