Duke/Air Force

Is the Duke game on tonight against Air Force? It says ESPN2 but GT is on and I think I saw that the DePaul game was going to be on later on ESPN2

 

Winthrop>AF

 

Air Force demolished Stanford and Colorado. Who has Winthrop beat?

I think your impression may come from the fact that Duke>UNC.

 

Dook didn't look to overpowering to me. If AF got hot from 3 like Winthrop did it would have been a completely different ballgame. I only watched like five minutes so cut me some slack.

 

Duke hit their first 9 shots or so and held AF without a rebound until 8 minutes left in the first half.

No one playing against the Princeton offense is going to look overpowering.

 

Paulus looked a lot better last night. Duke slowed the ball up a lot and went to the half-court offense which I thought would be a bad thing but they worked it to near perfection. I love Lance Thomas down low. I think McRoberts needs to be more aggressive and stay in the post. He is outside the whole time. Most of his points are going to come from driving. DeMarcus Nelson looks GREAT. I am worried about Marquette's guardplay a ton. Nelson and Scheyer will have to guard Dominic James. Henderson and Zoubek seem to be a little inconsistent and get inconsistent minutes. one game they get 15-20 minutes and then the next game they get 5. I wonder what that is about? Duke's Defense looks outstanding so far this year (knocking on wood)

 

I think K may pace Zoubek for the back to back games. He did the same thing first round. A couple of minutes in game 1 then he got 20 minutes in game 2 and what 17 points?

Being a big guy he probably needs a day of rest between games.

We'll know more if he gets more minutes tonight.

 

And for the most part, princeton type offenses have always given duke problems because of the overplaying on defense. that game was never really in doubt after the first 10 minutes. it'll be a good one tonight.
