Bilas and Williams both said Duke had zero turnovers in first half.....they had at least 2

[silentsaregolden2.0]

Brea stole it from Flagg, and there was another one a min or two later. I don't know if the official scorer scrwed up or what.

I saw that and thought the had a couple but they sure had more in the second half.

 

[HerrosHeroes]

No way should a major network hire two Duke homers to cover CB.
ESPN doesn't even try to hide their bias.
But that's ok because Ky put Bilas and Williams in corners, just like UKs WILLIAMS D’ed up wonder boy into the corner and they all three have Dukie Dunce Domes on this morning!

To be fair, they probably look at a stat screen during the game to facilitate their commentary … it may have been wrong.

This, They have people that feed them the info. It's not like they're keeping stats themselves.

Of course, the people feeding them the stats are probably Duke fans.

It's called "selective sight" and only seems to affect former Duke players calling Duke games. Big pharma is working on a cure but the side effects of blindness, cataracts, anal seepage, strokes and cancer are concerning for some.

While this is true if an entire fan base can know a stat is wrong because they just watched the same half then the announcer should also realize that as he is reading it.

Don't listen to the announcers. I can't say this enough.

Duke runs basketball in all phases of the game sadly. NBA commissioner, head of USA basketball, top ESPN mouthpieces are all Duke guys. Meanwhile we can't even get an alum on the SEC network

It was hard to listen to them but made the victory sweeter. I say next game let Goose or Mash call the game alongside Bilas

The media likes east coast choir boys, love is blind.

Those two you are thinking of were counted as blocks in the official stats. I had the same thought during the game and checked during the game.

I remember that play, too. However, the official box score on the UK athletics website shows Duke with only 1 TO in the 1st, and it was from Caleb Foster.

Tom and Jack sync'd up to TV for me every game.

Correct - Brea is credited with a block against Flagg at the 12:17 mark of the 1st half
