That's fewer possessions than Butler has had the entire season as well.

I never expected it to happen in the Final Four.<br /><br />That being said, as much as I hate Duke and think they really "shouldn't" be here, the Blue Devils have done what 63 other teams in this tournament have not done, and that's taken care of business when they have been afforded opportunities. That's on Kryzooski and the players, so props to them for doing what needed to be done to get in this position. <br /><br />Now they have to finish the job. I think Butler will prove to be up to the task to shut down Duke's offense - I think they can neutralize Singler and Smith and let Scheyer's hot or cold hand set the pace early. If Scheyer's hitting, switch off - they can't ALL be hitting shots again, can they? The problem I foresee for the Bulldogs is scoring enough points to win the game. I trust Stevens will come up with something, but I see a slow, plodding game that ends up 66-61 one way or the other.<br /><br />Maybe Scheyer will travel and turn the ball over on Duke's final two possessions of the game, a la Trajan Langdon 11 years ago.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
