    Dook was 11th and 12th in both major polls pre-season and UNC was 3rd and 4th. So dook finished right about where they were considered preseason.

    My bad. Too many victory drinks = sloppy research.

    I know what you mean, but dook by no means overachieved as some would think. They should be within a few spots of where they started.

    With that being said, UNC needs to be in the final four to do the same imo.

    Didn't look like any overachievement to me. Had 3 players any other coach would kill to have (Williams, Redick and Ewing) and good support players. No bench to speak of but then they never have one. Just a normal year for Duke.

    Well K choked big time in this game, he should have had Melch in there in place of Shav when Williams was on the court.

    He fell in love with his big lineup too much and it really hurt his team. Shav only needs to be in the game when Sheldon is on the bench, period!

    LM will get more rebounds, score more points, all around smarter player, plus would be an upgrade at handling the ball or making decisions with it, which was a big need with the pressure MSU was putting on the ball.

    They made it to the Sweet Sixteen and no further ( and looked like crap doing it). I wouldn't exactly call that overacheiving.

    Sweet 16 ain't bad, and they don't give style points, just W's and L's.

    choked?? bullshit. that's just dumb. did you see how many offensive rebounds msu had. bigger lineup= more rebounds. unless your unc against nova. the only thing they didn't do right was go down to s. williams more often in the second half.
