Duke Basketball Corner (2018-19, Ep. 14)

Deep Diving with Jordan Sperber)

(23-3, 11-2)

 *Zion blew through his shoe (New Nike Slogan: Just Blew It) 36 seconds into the Duke-Carolina game, and it was mostly rough times from there. With so much being unknown right now as to Zion's health, I thought it would be fun to make a more lasting episode, taking a deep dive into Jordan Sperber's analytics and x's and o's mind. He's carved out his own path in college basketball coverage, a path I'm hopeful others will soon join him on.

*I talk to Jordan about his career, the analytics movement (along with all types of CBB analysis) Game Prep, Duke's offense, and issues with college basketball coverage.

*It's a marathon, and I'm very appreciative of how much time Jordan gave on my pod. Hopefully you'll do the same. Enjoy!

*You can find links below to all of Jordan's work, but the easiest way to have access to everything in one place is by visiting @hoopvision68 on Twitter.

Topics:

0:00-6:45 Cold Open/Intro

6:45-20:50 Getting to know Jordan (career, podcast/future coach and player guests on his pod)

Road Trip! Previewing UVA, Pt. 2 (With Jordan Sperber)

(20-2, 8-1)

*As temperatures remain frigid throughout most areas of the country, Duke's schedule heats up with matchups at Virginia and Louisville. Who doesn't enjoy a good road trip?

*I'm lucky enough to be joined on this episode by Jordan Sperber, Video Coordinator for New Mexico State, analytics guru, and a rising star of play-based college basketball analysis.

*You can find links below to all of Jordan's work, but the easiest way to have access to everything in one place is by visiting @hoopvision68 on Twitter.

*As the episode title suggests, the majority of the focus is placed on UVA, but Jordan's also able to give quality info on Louisville, a very impressive team exceeding expectations at this point in the season led by another Jordan, star sophomore Jordan Nwora.

FSU 2nd Half Play-By-Play Breakdown

(14-1, 3-0)

Huge win for Duke and a crazy game-winning dagger by Cam Reddish, but the big road win over FSU was a total team efford. I tried something different with this pod, so it's likely a bit clunky, but was definitely fun and may record more of these types in the future.

0-10:45: Overview, various stats.
