Message: [QUOTE="FrancoPizza, post: 1630288, member: 5195"] Duke isn't a good defensive team. Or at least K was stubborn to abandon the ball-denial strategy. Truthfully, though, our guards were struggling mightily with this type of on-ball pressure in the 1st half. It took some adjustments to spread the floor before we got into any rhythm. But let's also remember Roberson bailed us out on many, many occasions. Virginia is going to pack it in and deny that kind of penetration so hopefully G doesn't draw 5 charges in the first 10 minutes. And Robe isn't going to snare 20 rebounds. We'll need a different approach and we'll need to hit those 3s when we have any decent look. No stupid turnovers. White knuckle time. First team to 40 wins. [/QUOTE]
