Based on what I've seen so far, he will kill Davis in the post.  I've always thought Davis was very soft.

He also gets 'injured' every game

Announcers just said this game has been the loudest basketball game they have covered in a long time.

If IU's guards don't step up, they won't win. Coach K will adjust to Marco. That doesn't mean stop him...but it does mean more open shots for these guards.

Duke up 9 at the half.

 

IU and Iowa both have to win for the B10 to win the challenge.

Well, a s***ty first half. Glad to be only down 9. Ball should go to Marco every time down the court until they prove they can stop him. It's be nice to make a wide open 3 every so often, too.

Marco: 8-9

 

Rest of team: 9-23, 0-5 3's

 

You won't beat the #1 team in the nation with one player.

Nope. That's why I feel good wo be within 9. And really, the last 2 minutes killed us. SHould have been a 4-6 point game, but alas it's not. Need our shooters to actually shoot in the 2nd half and we have a shot at making this a game. If they stay cold, Duke wins by 15.

Yeah, letting the lead slip there wasn't good. The first few minutes will be real important...does this lead go to 15 pts? or 3?

 

I'll be interested to see what coach K does with Marco. Someone needs to make some shots.

It's imperative we come out under control. Get the ball to Marco and let him go. If they collapse on him, kick it and live by our guards.

Go after Shelden again, get him #3.

Go after Shelden again, get him #3.

Hey nice call kid.

Well, Marco's weakness may be the free throw. That's why it is so important to get DJ back. No team will have enough fouls to go around for those two.

Good game in Iowa City.

 

Carver sucks.

McRoberts and Williams with 3. This should be fun.

Finally, a 3, and a 4 pt game.

We just can't get over the hump. Davis needs to light a fire under these guards.

They say that everywhere they are.

Unless IU hits a bunch of 3's this game is over.

Duke makes every open 3. We miss every open 3. And that's your difference.

IU needs to start hitting jumpers or they are toast.

That or play some defense. But Davis doesn't really care about defense this year.

I think IU is too relient on Marco....if he ever gets in foul trouble..bye bye fav team.

Wow, SOMEONE can make a 3...

Haha guess who canned a trey...yep...

That's why DJ White is so important.
