It's Duke vs. UNC
Posted Feb 11, 2009
Duke must find a way to stop a North Carolina offense that leads the ACC in scoring (92.3 ppg). That's a daunting task because the Tar Heels are so versatile and balanced. The first key will be slowing them in transition and trying to keep point guard Ty Lawson under wraps, especially on fast breaks. Duke also will have to deal with Wayne Ellington and Danny Green on the wings and Tyler Hansbrough (22.1 ppg) inside.
