5GallonBucket Posted April 4 Report Posted April 4 49 minutes ago, TxHoops said: Well, I definitely like those picks. Florida was my choice going in because I couldn’t tell how good Duke was because of how down the ACC was this year. But after what Duke’s did to Alabama, especially defensively, they seem to be the team to beat for me. Exactly the same way I feel. i also didn’t realize how long Duke players are….good gracious. i had gator vs cougar in final with gator having a full belly. after watching Duke my gut tells me Houston may be in trouble. Especially if Duke defends the perimeter then that 3 ball that UH shoots so well may take a percentage drop. but I’m still sticking with Florida either way. TxHoops 1 Quote

After the Sweet 16 game, I was thinking Bama might be peaking at the right time to win it all, especially the way they were shooting the ball. But you are 100 percent correct, Duke put on a clinic defending the perimeter, about as well as I’ve seen. I’ve never loved the way Houston defends, especially the deeper they get. Just seems susceptible to being exposed by elite guards, especially ones with length. But that’s why they play the games I guess. 5GallonBucket 1 Quote

You can’t count on a record breaking performance again and Duke proved that. Duke also beat Bama by 20. Florida should have lost to TT. Tennessee couldn’t buy a bucket against Houston. Just my tidbit opinions. I think Duke is the total package. What I think is best about them…..don’t get behind and have to foul….who do you foul? (Proctor), but he beats you other ways. You don’t gain any ground because they don’t miss. Flagg is simply the best all around player. Of course Duke could have a bad day and all my post is for naught. I don’t see it happening, but you never know. TxHoops 1 Quote

rupert3 Posted April 6 Report Posted April 6 Typical Houston team. Just close. Close is only good in horse shoes and hand grenades Quote
