Yes, they're not good, but they're better than Purdue. Road wins aren't easy in this conference, and I think if we turn the ball over 16 times on the road, we lose.

We've lost to plenty of crappy Indiana teams in Bloomington over the years.

And IU always has Duke level officials in that building. Last year, we got called for 2 fouls in the first 15 seconds of the game.

Can we please stop with these preemptive excuses regarding officials? Just play the damn game and stop bitching about calls before we even play. I see this stupid shit on this board about every good team we play on the road.

but a win is a win. Lots of good things to see out there, and still lots to improve upon as they go forward. Will have to play materially better than this to win in Indiana, where I expect the fouls to be more numerous.

Can you believe Stauskas was leading scorer - but only hit 1 of 3 from downtown?

Nice win despite what had to be a season high in turnovers and a horrid night defending the the paint. Thank GOD the shooting was hot.

61% shooting on the night. Incredible. Imagine how good they'd be if they hadn't turned the ball over 800 times.

Also THJ with 29 points for the Knicks tonight. Beilein über alles.
