March 9, 200719 yr I would prefer to see Duke get beat by a Winthrop in the first round.:fight: I would be ok with that sincerely...this is not to be their year...I know that...I want them to keep winning, so they can benefit next season.
March 9, 200719 yr would be, bad bad news for the Cats...though it likely won't happen...UK would be an ideal matchup for this Duke squad. The teams UK has struggled against are those with a pair of strong athletic bigs. UK's guards would be a mismatch for Paulus and Scheyer to try and stop.
March 9, 200719 yr The teams UK has struggled against are those with a pair of strong athletic bigs. UK's guards would be a mismatch for Paulus and Scheyer to try and stop. They have to be able to drive and dish...that is not UK's forte whatsoever.
March 9, 200719 yr Meeks and Bradley are so much quicker than Paulus and Scheyer that I do not think the drive part is a problem, the dish maybe. Wayne turner wasn't the best "disher" either but he made Wojo look pretty silly, similar speed disadvantage that Paulus would face. I think it would be a very interesting game, but one I would not be afraid of for sure. I hope UK avoids a team full of tall bangers.
March 9, 200719 yr When I flipped over to the game and saw a number beside Duke's name I couldnt believe it. They really have a lot of folks drinking the Coach Kool-Aid.
March 9, 200719 yr ACC titles and Duke... ACC Tournaments held in North Carolina since 1990 - Duke has six titles ACC Tournaments held outside North Carolina since 1990 - Duke has two titles Both times the ACC Tourney has been held in St. Pete (1994, 2007), Duke has went one game and out.
March 9, 200719 yr Duke would have a terrible time matching up with UK in the tournament. The Wildcat guards are bigger, quicker and can shoot just as well, minus Jasper. But Meeks, Bradley and Crawford all are much more athletic and shoot just as well. Would love to play them over rated Dukies, then watch the excuses some of their fans have on here later.
March 9, 200719 yr Duke seems more mortal when the ACC Tournament isn't played in Greensboro. Kind of...though last time I went to it (Washington DC, 2005) they won it.
March 9, 200719 yr Always glad to see a Duke loss:banana: and especially glad to see a Jimmy V deciple beat them. :ylsuper: :ylsuper:
