It actually was a fun game to watch for so many reasons, but 2 pretty good teams who don't really ever have a true 5. When NC State made their best runs they were playing Abu as their big man but he goes and gets rebounds like a man, still miss that type body in our line up. But they played with 3 guards a ton in beating Duke, one of them being Dennis Smith which was a "wow" guy last night. But Duke also plays a lot of 6'-6 8" guys when they are impacting the game. My point is no one blocked shots and they seemed to play pretty good basketball most often (until the end, both coaches should be ashamed of themselves. Gottfried had no right winning that game they couldn't get in bounds up 6 or less the last 2 minutes, putrid he's awful and won despite thanks to Smith and Rowan. Anyway we have the bodies if healthy to play the same next year and you can win without the true 5, you can. Just a positive thought.
