[QUOTE="TheFameProtector, post: 1561771, member: 517079"] Duke is definitely the opposite of Baylor -- talented team (probably not as much as prior years, but they have guys and Jalen Johnson will be a stud down the road) that is just young and inexperienced at this level. I think they'll get better as the season progresses (same can be said of us). As for our guys, Curbelo is THE perfect example of a "No no...yes!" guy, a little similar in that respect to Giorgi. So many times where he starts doing something and my reaction is "oh no please don't do something stup...ATTA BOY CURBELO!!!!" I love that guy's ability but he's still learning a lot out there -- I also love that BU is letting him play through his mistakes even in high stakes games. They seem like they're going to have an awesome relationship and be a great player-coach duo for years to come. Hoping that Adam Miller is able to shake whatever that was off!! 🙏🙏 [/QUOTE]
