Two thoughts on your various points:

1.  There may have been a few possessions on which Duke deliberately slowed things down, but I agree that our defense stymied them time after time.  They looked for an opening, occasionally thought they saw one, and then saw it disappear, as our rotation and movement took it away immediately.  Brown and Greenwell were limited to less than half their normal scoring.  Job very well done.  Maybe our defense didn’t concentrate on Odom, but I think she scored mostly because she is good.  I expect her to be a star.  She is decent on the dribble, takes the ball into the paint, elevates, and puts up a soft jumper or floater.  She scored over Gabby and had at least 3 hit  the rim multiple times before falling through.  Very soft touch.  She had 3 good games in the tourney and still has 2 years left.

2.  Meg may have been a fraction slow on one or two defensive rotations, but I thought she played well.  She did miss one shot from almost point blank range, but it was contested and she was slightly too far directly under the basket.  Meg rebounded with ferocity and looked almost like Maya or Tina hitting the boards.  She elevates, uses her length, and grabs the ball with strength. She’s a solid rebounder.
