He's definitely not stubborn. As you said, one of the more adaptable, flexible coaches I've seen at any level. That said, I'm skeptical for two reasons - 1) the vast majority of coaches tighten up their rotation when the schedule gets tough, and 2) Brad is known for hyperbole (i.e. he throws...

I'm skeptical. Brad says a lot of !!!!.

It floored me 30 years ago. That's how long it's been happening. I pretty much expect it now.

In an exhibition game, sure. But in a game that matters, he's going to play whatever guy gives us the absolute best chance of winning. It doesn't matter if he's a Freshman or a 5th year guy or even a walk-on.

Good point. He had a fantastic season last year and I don't recall him ever dunking. (Like Keaton). So why start when you're recovering my injury?

It's hard to believe they pull this off year after year. Their 6 thru 10 guys are rated higher than the starting 5 of all but a handfull of programs nationally.

IMO MIchigan should be easily top 15. Certrainly not as loaded as last year, but still a very talented team.

Florida is just about everyone's #1 at this point for a reason.

Better not to read too much into an exhibition game at all.

It's key that we get that resolved soon. As well as the 10th -13th man. So we can do hockey-style substitutions.

This has been going on at Duke for the last 30 years. Most years, no other teams come close to their overall talent level (some of Cal's Kentucky teams did). Yet most years they don't win it all. You can only play so many guys. If everyone stays healthy (obviously a big if), what matters...

Going into last season many thought he'd be our best player. Of course many also though Keaton would be a reserve. He was injured to start the year and seemed to never really get on track until the tournament. Hopefully he can pick up where he left off.

Plus he seems like a perfect fit for our style of play.

We do this before every season. Projecting ppg for our guys and the total is 120+. Sort of like predicting we play an 11-man rotation.

Surprised to see both the twins that high. Hope they both can put it together in possibly their last seasons.
