Duke #1

Zeller is practicing full speed now. Hopefully he'll be able to contribute by March.

 

Duke by eight....

 

What is encouraging is that Scheyer and Singler have been shooting like crap and they are still winning despite that in part to their defense, and Paulus has just now started to actually contribute the last 5 games or so. The first two months of the year he was terrible until about 2 weeks ago he has stepped up and done much better. That post depth that Wake has is going to be a killer. They are going to have to play Plumlee just to steal some minutes, and he's not bad on defense. The thing is is that even though this Duke team is #1 they still aren't clicking on all cylinders. Scheyer has been playing mediocre and Singler's shot has been off. Henderson has been playing like his hair is on fire but this team can still improve so much over the next 6 weeks.

 

I think Wake wins but I wouldn't be surprised if Duke wins either. Before Wake losing to VT I wouldn't have had any doubts about a Wake win but who knows now.

 

LOL. So basically you have no clue. Just like the rest of us.

 

Yep .

 

Not only was I being sarcastic, I was taking a shot at you

 

I'm not sure if I want him to come back this year. I wonder if he should just take a redshirt year and have four full years.

 

Wake has such an advantage over everyone with their front court. McFarland has turned into a pretty good center and then you have Johnson and Aminu with arms like condors. I think they put one of them on Henderson and shut him down because their length is insane. There will be too much down low and I think Nolan can contain Teague and keep him from going off but if Smith sits and they put Paulus on him then Duke will get burned, and if you move Scheyer over to guard Teague you give up Smith's speed for Scheyer's height but Teague will burn right by, and that leaves Paulus guarding a 2 man like L.D. Williams who can shoot the three over him.

 

Although I might have been hasty.
