I know Len is much bigger than Hollis-Jefferson but that going to him in the post is not yielding results

LOLNO.
It's coming, trust me.
Oh sure they'll ask, but no college team, I don't care how good is beating an NBA squad. They'd get so overwhelmed physically it'd be a laugher.
You are probably right that they will be wrong, but Duke is crazy big and athletic this year that they might actually be able to hang physically or be close.

Just....... no.

to be honest, nothing is really yielding results.
Wish len would go faster into a drop step spin move or something.

He needs to keep the ball up high and stop over-thinking things.

Still, he has been really successful in drawing fouls.

Sure Duke is big and strong, but they are children. The NBA is grown men who've been working out 24-7 for years. Basketball is their job, that's way different than a college kid who has to study. There is a reason NCAA stars end up role players and most don't make it, there is a huge skill/strength gap between college and pros. There is 0% chance Duke can beat the worst NBA team. The worst NBA team is filled with top NCAA players from all over the place. Just cannot see it.

I think this game was available really cheap when they had a flash sale right before the season started. I heard about it from my cousin who bought lower bowl tickets to the Milwaukee game for a great price.

Hmm, I agree they couldn't, but they may start 5 1st rounders and possibly 3 drafted in the top 10 of a good draft. All I am saying is that there will be people asking whether it could happen, and with how young teams are nowadays, they will think it's a legit arguement.

Jackson needs to reconsider his moves. If you are unable to get any lift after taking those big strides maybe you shouldn't pick up your dribble so far away from the basket.

He is getting demolished inside.

Can we combine Dudley's brain with Bender's body?

That could be a MVP candidate.

But how many 1st round picks from last year's draft are actually ready to contribute for big minutes? Maybe Tatum? Kuzma? Markkanen? Anybody else?

So far I’m not seeing it at all. I know he’s a rookie
