Duke defeated Miami 88-73 this past weekend in the only game I’ve been able to see this year. Cameron was of course packed but unfortunately the refs called one of the worst games I’ve seen in quite a while. Not only was this the only trip I will make all year, it had to be the one where the refs were whistle happy.
Paulus hit the deck on a no call and we all know what that means. He flopped right? If he did it was a helluva an acting job because he wasn’t on the floor for some time. Now that the word on the street is that he’s a professional flopper, the refs won’t be calling the serious fouls anymore.
So be it. It really doesn’t matter at this point. The kid is playing with a tremendous amount of shooting confidence going into the big game on Wednesday. He could be the factor that makes the difference in the game.
Singler played well in the second half as well. What really kept the ballgame under 30 points was the horrible free throw shooting in the first half. Duke was 26 of 40 but more like 1 of 20 in the first half (ok I made that last statistic up but statistics show that 87% of statistics are made up on the spot).
In order for Wednesday to play out like Duke wants, all wheels need to be turning and the throttles on high.

So now that game is out of the way how do you see the Duke/UNC game going and is the UNC pg still hurt?
I think that this is one of the best duke teams yet and I know that is a bold statment but I belive it! you don’t know who’s going tho be the star, One game it could be Paulus the next Schyer or Nelson Or anyone for that matter they look real good and i think that they are not only going to beat UNC but CRUSH them
DO DUKE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow…crush is a might word. I think Lawson could very well play according to the Charlotte Observer. It stated he won’t practice until Tuesday and put weight on it but it is Duke/UNC. If you can’t get up for that game what can you get up for…oh wait, there is the NCAA’s. It will be interesting to see if its a “fake” tactic or not.
