Here's a good article (and link to a Coach K press conference) talking about Duke's expected up tempo pace this coming season, and a change in the focus of the defense.
"We do have a lot of offensive weapons, but we've got to focus on defense," Singler said. "Just going through what we went through last year, we realize that playing defense and working together is a key to winning. We're definitely going to have to do that this year."
They will, but in a new way. Instead of locking down on opponents in the half-court game, this team will look to take advantage of its improved depth by using more full-court pressure to generate turnovers, and depending on its guards to rebound from the perimeter and get the Blue Devils off and running.
