I honestly believe Carolina is already in thanks to many of the other bubble teams especially Xavier losing to Marquette yesterday but a victory over the number one team in America might give them a better seed in the dance.
I am so sick seeing so many articles stating Carolina will be playing a depleted Duke team tonight. Duke had 10 Mickey D all Americans to Carolina’s 4. Duke has every player on the team but one 6’6 or taller so they are still very loaded with tons of talented players and they are very deep.
If Flagg can’t go they showed yesterday against Georgia Tech in the second half that they have plenty of weapons to offset the loss of Flagg’s offense.
Brown to me is just as important not to be playing as everyone witnessed last Saturday he completely shut RJ down with his height and speed last weekend in the second half. Wake tried the same thing last night and it worked for the first 15 minutes of the game as RJ had only been able to get one shot off and it was blocked.
To more keys will be can Powell slow down Kueppel who went off in the second half during Duke’s comeback and Lubin and Washington stop the big center of the Blue Devils Maluach who also had a big second half.
Jackson and Cadeau must contribute offensively and play some defense which is neither one of their strong assets.
Duke is the number one three point shooting team in the league so playing perimeter defense is also a must.
Lastly except for an occasion drive by Cadeau and Trimble hardly anyone for Carolina will drive to the hole to take an easier shot or get fouled. I am especially pointing to Powell and Withers. Both players have hops so instead of living on three point shooting all of the time drive some.
Play like this is a must win game because it might be
