    Took two losses to wake Duke up.

    The team that came back and almost won is the team they can be.

    Still #1 ACC.

    They'll have to do it for more than just 2 minutes and that's something they won't learn from you.

    Without Henderson's slashing ability dook is woefully one-dimensional. They remind me a lot of the 96-97 team right now, except not as good from the outside.

    Singler doesn't have a killer instinct to take it to the hole, it seems. Nelson is too small to continuously drive to the bucket.

    I agree. A lot of people on this site have been saying that the dookies aren't nearly as good as people have thought this year. They've been winning games - can't argue with that - but they're not nearly as good as some people think.

    could very well happen. but whoever is number 2 in the Heels bracket will be the better team.

    Well, it's funny. They were playing a lot better than I thought they would be this year. So, this recent downturn is basically them playing like the team I thought they were [/Dennis Green]

    But, I now know they can be better. So it's disappointing. Hopefully they turn it around before March.

    Better to lose now than in March I guess. Teams typically run out of gas in February tired legs and all. Duke will be fine. Not saying they will go all the way though.

    No excuses, the were bad/flat/emotionless.

    That said the past 2 games have been against teams that needed a marquee win to help their NCAA bid.....and both being Away, made it difficult for Duke.

    UNC was in the same boat earlier in the season and even had a 3pt win @UVA.....Duke is against the wall right now.....I hope 2 home games help them get their confidence back.


    UNC is playing well without Lawson....4-1......their schedule is pretty weak to finish the season minus the Duke game.

    If you said that 5weeks ago i would happen to agree with you But other then the UVA game when the Heels were very tried .The way the heels are playing right now they are starting to look like a team that could go all the way
