Clemson is 27th in the latest KenPom rankings. ORtg 39th DRtg 27th. Nobody said they're great, but they're pretty good and should at the very least have a shot to win every home game. Little John can be a tough place to get a Dub.

According to Kenpom Duke's projected to win by about 7.5 points

So... a 75% chance of winning? Like I said I'll believe it when I see it

Duke is really good. And should be favored. Nobody is arguing otherwise. (I had my doubts if Duke was going to be as good as most thought and so far they've answered the bell) But you said Clemson isn't good. Obviously the phrase "isn't good" is subjective... but right now I'd say Clemson is a good club and solidly in the NCAA Tournament.
 
I put Dawson Garcia in the Alex Stephenson camp of “players who transferred out of the UNC program for personal reasons, but remain honorary Heels who don’t deserve any ill-will from the fanbase.”

Brown's a really important part of their rotation, particularly on the defensive end. Gives a chance to get Nbonga some minutes at the 5 and Evans some more minutes in general. Not sure I love their lineup with Cooper at the 5, though it works well against smaller teams. A little adversity is probably a good thing at this stage.

Yea, let Nbonga showcase at the 5 for the team he will play for next year. 😁

Normal Clem's son, they will fade as the season does on.
 
d00k's Capel (now @ Pitt) about to go off on FSU player for the late dunk (which I will admit was a punk ass move)
Capel and his team of Pitt thugs following FSU players into the FSU locker room. Idiots.
I'm sure Leonard will straighten out his players (the dunker and passer too) for the late, unnecessary dunk.
But who will straighten out Capel for being a punk ass head coach at Pitt?
Capel's only claim to fame was that half court shot - in a loss, mind you - vs UNC.
And his brother Jason (of UNC, also now at Pitt) has infamously shown nothing but disdain for his Alma mater since he was coaching at ASU in Boone. (A failed attempt I might add). And now the two of them provide nothing but embarrassment to their schools, past and present.

Clemson has 2 good wins. Similar tier as UNC who I also wouldn't call good (despite maybe trending like it)

They're basically Chase Hunter playing at a high level, next to average shooting, and some size. Almost no bench to speak of

I thought last year's Clemson team was fairly good and balanced overall. Don't think this year's team is that
