I'm kind of getting sick of Taurean. He's a blackhole on offense.

tunnel vision prince at it again

Parkers game is so ugly

Anyone else notice Trae got hardly any backstory from the commentators from ESPN during the game? Yet Luka was being talked about constantly. His family, his career, his hardships, his favorite cartoon villains, whether or not he wears boxers or briefs, etc.

Why do you think this is?

shout out to bembry doin a little bit of everything today. hand him the keys to the backup point coach peirce

Just let Bembry run the backup point and let him go through the growing pains. Lin is worthless out there anyway

so this is what it feels like to have a point guard who can drive AND shoot

Seeing how advanced Trae is compared to Sexton was great. Sexton is no where near Trae's level right now.

Let Trae jack it up. Go for 40!!!

Honestly I think I prefer Bembry as the backup point, as it also frees up playing time for Huerter. Lin has been ineffective anyway

Sexton looking rookie Schröder 

Poythress should be starting in place of the injured Collins. Vince is a straight liability playing as a 4. 

I know it's still early but i'm just not seeing it with coach Pierce. The guys look beyond lost on both ends of the floor

Bembry shot 46% from three this preseason. He obviously won't be able to keep that percentage but if he can hover around the 35% that'd be awesome. He still needs to cut down the turnovers though. Thats his biggest issue so far

lol i've actually been pleasantly surprised with Trae. Hes had stretches where hes ran the team really well, thats the kind of stuff I want to see from him. i'm confident his shot will eventually come. what I wanna see more of his coach pierce utilizing him off-ball to get him some open 3 pointers. 

@bleachkit Agreed with that. Huerter has been pretty... yikes

Gross Dorsey starting

I really think Bembry's shooting woes is overexaggerated. Don't get me wrong, he still needs to improve in that facet of the game. However, if you look at last season, shooting wasn't the reason for his downfall. It was his turnovers and poor decision making. He simply tried to do too much on offense last season, he drove into heavy traffic, predetermined where he was going to pass the ball, and just made terrible decision after terrible decision. Add that to his shaky handle and he was a turnover waiting to happen. If Bembry can tighten that handle, choose his spots wisely, and make better decisions with the ball in his hands he'll have a place on this team. I still think he has a lot of potential and could be an batum/iggy lite if he works hard on his shot and handle. he's got vision and playmaking ability, he just needs to play under control.

Surprise of the the game was definitely Len for me. Looks like he can be a long term backup C solution if he keeps up this style of play. Love his activity and hustle on defense and on the boards.

of all people cole f***ing aldrich

I would rather give Adrien Payne a shot

Cam is still my favorite prospect on Duke
