I think the identity that is emerging for this team is one of toughness and physical play.Hopefully we’ll also start including screens, some kickouts from penetration etc to help our shooters. We don’t seem to scheme to use our offense to free up the shooters unless the defense makes a mistake while passing around the perimeter. They seem to be a low option in our offense.
Duke also just got better getting Tyrese Proctor back in the lineup after an injury. It will make it even more difficult to out “athletic” Duke.
I don't see any shot blockers on the Duke roster (Filipkowki is okay at this; nothing special) and I am not sure they really have a power forward.
I think our best bet is to attack the basket and try and get Filipkowski in foul trouble. It will help playing them with no students there. Their guards are good outside shooters we need to stay close to and not allow to get into the paint.
