Josh and Amile

are filling Ryan's shoes nicely in the last 2 games. Marshall and Alex getting fill-in time on the floor. Mason having a 25 minute game and Duke expanding it's lead is a good sign this team has found itself. Seth at 27 minutes is a very good thing. IMO, Duke is better, has more depth, and will have two line-ups that uses different offensive sets when Ryan returns. Hard for any defense to plan against that. Hats off to the best coach in the NCAA.

Forgot to mention the tight D Duke is playing.

Yeah, so you know they suck.

I will be so glad when the Chosen One # 2 returns. Watch out NCAA Ryan Kelly is coming back! The next Bird, Dirk, Durant, Kobe, Lebron, Garnett all rolled into one.! Duke never lose with this guy in the lineup, 950 wins 0 defeats!!

I get your sarcasm, but don't be ridiculous. Ryan Kelly being out unquestionably changes the make up of this Duke team. He's a senior leader, great defender and is very efficient offensively.

It's hard to trump experience with talent. Most of the time, experience wins out. With the exception of Kentucky last year...that's very rare.

RE: Josh and Amile

Amille has been improving very nicely. He seems to have "reeled" himself in a little and is starting not to make the silly fouls that plagued him early on. Hairston is what he is and I dont know if any amount of experience or practice will change that. Good kid though. Still hoping for more development out of Murphy and a little more consistency out of Sulaimon and this team still has a chance to do something special.

RE: Josh and Amile

Will be interesting to see who defends who in the game with State. Can Amile, Josh,and Alex put the clamps on Leslie and Warren?

RE: Josh and Amile

Anytime a solid player goes down it gives others a chance to shine. Duke went thru some growing pains, but they are much stronger now too. Experience is huge for the subs. Confidence. Playing loose. Each time out get's easier. Duke will be tough at tourney time. Kelly will be back, and the bench can come in and not be intiminated.
