Yep. He definitely got his tonight!

Without Kelly, Duke is not the same team that got them to 15-0. But when he returns the team could return to form. Of course, all the starters will be worn out and Kelly may never be 100% when he returns so alot is still unknown.

I think it's both, rfred: Duke may not be the #5 team and Wake is a threat at home. Scares me for when the Heels play them - hope its a home game for Carolina.

Those are some gaudy numbers Plumlee got tonight. Impressive.

So did Wake (grow up,a lot as well). I am so surprised at how tough Wake hung with Duke. I'm happy for them, and beating Duke would have been huge for Wake. Coach Buzz has worked hard and it's been such an uphill battle, it's good to see improvement in Wake.

Thought Plumlee got away with a charge....Still, glad Duke found a way to win this one...Either Wake is a true threat at home (Duke beat them easily with Kelly at Duke), or Duke is not a #5th ranked team. Wake did beat State at home, and State did beat Duke at home, but who knows when State is going to play their &quot;A&quot; game, or &quot;B&quot; game? One thing is for sure, Duke needs to find their 3 point shooting touch again...Kelly will help that tremedously when he gets back..

Mason Plumlee, FG 12-15, FT 8-10, RB 9, AST 2, STL 2, BLK 2, PTS 32

and he did this without Kelly.

Great win. I know alot will say &quot;It's just Wake&quot; but this win was alot tougher than it looked and Duke grew up alot tonight.
