Looks like at least 3 of the 4 games against China later this month will be televised live on ESPNU

Three Duke men's basketball games from the Blue Devils upcoming trip to China & Dubai will be televised live in the United States on ESPNU and ESPN3.com. Duke's Friendship Games contests in Shanghai (Aug. 18), Beijing (Aug. 22) and Dubai (Aug. 25) will be shown live in as many as 195 countries throughout the world with the capability of reaching over 275 million households.

This is cool..Jay Williams, Grant Hill, Kyrie and Nolan will be on the trip as well.

Duke Blue Devils men’s basketball team is all set to leave for a two week tour to China. The tour will begin from Sunday. The exciting part about this group is that it will also feature ex- Duke and present NBA players like Jay Williams, Grant Hill, recently drafted Kyrie Irving and Nolan Smith.

I can't wait to see the games. I think I'll call my neighbor to set my DVR for the 1st 2. Thanks CB C.

Having to follow today's game on twitter isn't much fun - hopefully highlights will be up later today on goduke.com. But apparently, Duke is up 51-34 right now, and a picture of a Dawkins dunk has hit twitter:

Hope they have gone to the delay game .

Guess we get all the calls, even international ones .

@Duke_MBB Duke Men's Hoops
Duke wins 77-64 in Kunshan. Rivers nets team-high 18 pts, while Dawkins, Kelly + Curry also reach double figures


I'm curious to see how our other bigs did. Supposedly there are like 3-4 7 footers on China's team.

Way too small, even after enlarging, for my eyes.

Dawkins is impressive with 4-6 on 3-pointers. He scored 17 points and had 3 steals.

[devildeac]

I also noted that we had 31 PF called on us and the Chinese only had 19. They also shot 40 FT to our 15. Who reffed the game, ted valentine, karl hess and jamie luckie? Or do the Chinese wear pastel blue uniforms?

I can't read Chinese.

Based on the stats in the article, it appears that they kept their own boxscore. Some of the rebound numbers aren't matching up so well.
