- Let's sum up:
- * Duke, right now, is NOT #1. Carolina is. No anti-woofing, just right now
- they're playing better than anyone else in the country. (It hurts, but it's
- true.) Although it's also interesting to note that they've been polishing off
- teams coming off emotional games versus Duke. (Includes FSU) (Hey, I couldn't
- leave it completely without a disclaimer...) They are #1.
- * Cincinnati is NOT one of the teams I'd like to see come tournament time.
- They're for real.
- * Cherokee Parks is somewhat over-rated, but he's also under-used.
- * Bobby Hurley is the Duke team. If you look back at the stats for all of Duke's
- losses for the past couple years, the common factor is that Hurley had a bad
- game.
- * Duke did not play lousy against Kentucky. That's what made Kentucky's
- near-victory so remarkable: Kentucky played amazing (although I also still
- believe UMASS!!! got royally shafted by Lenny's T-foul call).
-
- Now, since everyone is sick of hearing about Duke, I'll crawl back into my hole
- and shut up.
