Duke Dominates

I don't know how many people watched Duke play Seton Hall tonight, but if not you missed one of the most dominant games I've ever seen. Seton Hall went up 2-0. 22 missed shots later, it was 26-4 and all but over. The freshmen from Duke were really impressive, which bodes well for the future. They lose 4 seniors from this year's team, but the team lines up perfectly for next year. Paulus, Nelson, Pocius, Boykin and McRoberts start, Boateng and McClure off the bench, plus next year's freshmen. But this year, they're definitely the favorites to win it all. Just a brilliant performance all the way around, and I like the fact that even when they were up by 50 points, they were still playing defense like they were losing.

Hmmmmm. A reasonably intelligent [usually] blogger whose posts are [as a rule] informed by reason and common sense nevertheless goes ga-ga over the start of yet another season of young men with pituitary problems running around on TV in their skivies bouncing inflated balls and throwing them through hoops.
