We have a much greater chance to beat Duke, talented as they are, than Houston, Iowa St. or any other high pressure team. The reason is simple: we have enough firepower to match any non-pressure team. We just don't have dogs to match those other teams. 2. You all know that I love Dan Hurley and staff. Period. But I would love to see them change course mid stream when something unexpected works. To wit, playing Liam at the point works. When HD is back and healthy, having him as a 6th man would elongate our rotation significantly. Does it work against a pressing team? I don't know, but it cannot be worse than 47 TO's over two games. 3. Also, playing Alex at 5 works every single time. Just saying. 4. The ceiling on this team remains high because not many teams have 2 offensive players of the ilk that we have. Solo and Liam are explosive offensive weapons. If both are healthy, that's tough to match. And BTW, Alex will be able to return to being Robin. I love this kid, but he is not Batman. And he plays Robin better than anyone in America; and 5. Our defense has looked better and better with each passing week. Dan Hurley teams peak in March baby. [/QUOTE]
