Duke at Clemson

Saturday at 2 pm on Raycom and ESPN3.

Clemson has a highly rated defense so Duke needs move the ball and create open looks. K.J. McDaniel, Clemson's leading scorer and rebounder, is an exciting player with serious hops, to go all cliche...he can jump out of the gym!

I expect Duke will win in a low scoring game, something like 62-47.

Sounds like a good game for Jabari to play solid for 30+ minutes. Hell, any game would be nice for him to start back up. I do like K's approach with Jabari's slump though; if he isn't effective, don't keep him in the game. We have too many weapons on the bench to sacrifice for one player. I have no doubt JP will find his rhythm again, but it's also nice to see Coach not waiting on that to happen at the expense of a game.

Back to back road losses, when we had a 10 point lead in both games. This team has no leadership, no focus when the chips get down. They need to find both.

Still love 'em. Wouldn't trade 'em. Patience, Coach K, patience. You are the best teacher and they are all smart and want to do good.
