This team was three different teams. A great team when Grayson and Trent were reliable from 3, a very good team when one shot reasonably well, and just another good team when both were cold. With Tre's shooting limitations, we had to have one of Gary/Grayson at least be ok from 3. We almost beat a 1 seed with both Grayson and Gary missing open 3s because Kansas was double and triple teaming the post. Tre's scoring almost made up for Gary and Grayson but let's be honest, who would have predicted us beating a 1 seed with Gary and Grayson shooting so poorly?

I'll be excited when the time comes. I'm now looking forward to The Masters, the NBA playoffs, more golf majors and my own golf game. We don't get a long summer in Minnesota....so I'm not wishing the time away. There's lot of golf and cabin time between now and then.

We're going to be good. How good? That's the big question. We still have a few things unanswered between now and October....luckily we should get some of those answers in the coming month or two.

It's always a good time to be a Duke fan.
Jeez I’m sorry guys but I’d rather watch grass grow than watch golf.

This! x1,000
Glad I’m not completely alone in that sentiment. While I love warmer weather and summer I’m always sports depressed this time of year after our last game because I don’t like baseball so have to wait on football season.

You should give baseball another chance.

LOL....actually the world cup is good if you give it a chance,those guys skill level is phenomenal
I might be headed to Europe for the Group Stage matches, stay with friends. Russia too expensive. I'm told $400-800 a night even in lower tier cities with shady AirBnb spots

I only watch top flight European Leagues. And especially Champions League. I find it to be the least distracting sport - sit down with my beer and by the time my beer is done it's Halftime.

No commercials, no player showboating or protesting, no off topic discussions by analyst to fill airtime. Really got into the sport in the past 5 years

I'm really happy that the EPL and Bundesliga are now televised in the US. It changes the way you watch the game. I barely follow the MLS anymore, which is bad.

I'm looking forward to Liverpool and Citeh in the Champs league. First to double digits in aggregate wins, haha.

Also, if no one on here has every heard of the FA Cup, I think it is something that should be implemented in some sports leagues in the US. It's really fun.

Almost all of that looks like a foreign language to me. I need more culture.
