Yup, gotta hit 3s and bigs can't foul out. Ilic and Kocanas improving helps with 1st (and lets Madsen use two big lineups). But can't build wins in Brick City.
Not saying they win tonight with him, but they really miss Rytis. He’s a legit P4 glue guy that does a little bit of everything and his presence takes some of the pressure off everyone else.
But the stat lines from Bell, Pippen and Ames combined is stunningly poor. Yikes…the cross-country trip to Tallahassee is all that’s gonna keep this team from a 1-7 start and then the wheels could come off pretty quick.
honestly won’t go back to a cal game given that piss poor student section — was absolute garbage, no one was standing up or into it
Students aren't back from winter break
Still a long way to go
It’s a great day to indict James Arthur Knowlton….
Good effort through the first 1.5 halves. Think everyone just got gassed which caused shots to miss on offense. Hoping for some magic against UNC
Camden fouls out.
Losing control of this one.
The formula for this roster is clear - to win games in the ACC, Cal can’t afford to have one of your starters go 2-9…tonight they’ve got 3.
But they battled for 30 minutes. Gutsy effort but Bell, Pippen & Dai Dai combining to go 6 for 28 with 6 minutes remaining gives you no shot.

Dook pulling away. Cal flailing
Dort with a nice game.
It would be kinda interesting if Chris Bell or Dai Dai actually showed up.
why is up with our student section??
G’night.
Cal can’t defend without fouling.
3 offensive boards for Duke.
Embarrassing.
Dai Dai getting no love from the refs at all.
If Chris Bell could hit a shot it would be interesting.
He forces crap and begs for a foul. Such a bad look.
Dort is playing great. Wonder if they'll look to hit him on downhill cuts to the basket more often the rest of the season
They even gave him an iso play off the inbound, probably by accident lol. Not a bad attempt, tho
Ames with the "Kobe!"
Dort has to stay controlled.
End of half meltdown
