  Absolutely agree. Good points. They must defend the 3 and get back very quickly. Their length has to show and be a factor Friday night.

  The Cheats exploited the center of Duke's zone in the ACC Tourney. Duke was far more active against URI and closed the gaps. Help defense improved dramatically. Much of K's body of knowledge concerning the zone came from talking strategy with Jim Boeheim. Duke has to continue to extend the zone to the 3 pt line and recover to fill the gaps. You know Boeheim knows how to play against something he helped create. Go Duke!!

  Duke v Syracuse in the Sweet 16. The first game was a bit sloppy, though Duke ended up winning fairly easily. Hopefully Duke has learned to play better against the zone, since...ya know, they play it 100% of the time now.
  
  The South region is absolutely destroyed. Kentucky is the highest seeded team at #5. The tournament this year is indeed, madness.

  Clearly Duke shouldn't look past Rhode Island...they are good. If the Spartans win and Duke wins, that game could be what propels Duke to the Final Four or obviously sends the boys home.
  
  MSU has gotten REALLY good so I can't say how I think it will go other than saying it should be a wild game. Each team will likely go on runs and the game will likely be back and forth.
  
  I'll take the version of Trevon Duval that showed up yesterday vs. Iono for the rest of the tournament. He was fantastic! Carter needs to play better and some bench help would be good.
  
  Any thoughts on Duke's chances to make it to the Final Four or potentially the National Championship game?
  
  To me, it all depends on beating MSU or MSU losing early.
