Fun with numbers

If we had a 90% probability of winning each of our remaining games (probably optimistic), we would have a 30% chance of winning all of them.

Shows you how hard it is to go undefeated,

IMO There is m0re important things then going undefeated.
Someone said it best last week saying Were playing for the big one not to be undefeated.

IMO Finding a second go to guy to join Dion.
Southerland our 7th guy averaging double digits being more consistant and tough.
Melo Keita and Rak developing alittle post up hook.
Rebounding better on both ends. Fair and Southerland boxin out on offense and kicking the ball back out if they have to.
KJo stepping up more.
Triche continuing to show some isolation.
The continuing of catlike reflexes into the zone. Our guards knowing when its better to have your hands left and right to play the passing lanes and when its better to have one hand out towards the guy with the ball to play the ball(even if its your offhand).


Keeping what we already do well. Dion driving Scoops awesome passing the last few games, transition freethrows dribble penetration of KJo, Scoop, CJ and Triche to join Dion,
8 of our 10 guys have tons of room to improve and Scoop has to show the passing skills he has the last 2 games.

With Duke playing in what amounts to a mid-major conference, we better go very close to undefeated or we are going to get shipped to bumble-fudge Egypt in March while Duke plays in Boston.

Looking at the apparent mediocrity of the ACC, it's unlikely that they will get two #1 seeds. We should root for the Duke/UNC series to be swept by one or the other.

I am discounting UNC as a #1 seed candidate. They will get Duke or none. But you have to feel Duke is basically a lock for one. So we have be a higher #1 to get the East region.

I don't see Duke as a lock. They still have 2 games with FSU and 2 with UNC. Plus, maybe they go out in the semis of the ACC tourney.

OSU and UK are decent bets for a #1 right now, and one of the Big 12 teams (KU, Baylor, Mizzou) could get one if they rip through their league.
