Message: [QUOTE="CL82, post: 4391787, member: 44"] Thank you! I am astounded that nobody mentioned him until page 4. Ricky was absolutely unguardable in the first half. We know that because he was telling anyone who would listen “can’t guard me!” Seriously, though, I don’t think we win without that first half from him. It literally kept us in the game. The second half he returned to his roots, at least from that season, and put his energy into being a lockdown defender. It was a virtuoso performance. Remember how Langdon couldn’t get a shot off the last two possessions? Do you remember who was guarding him? When your only hope for offense is to flop and hope for the best, you can be pretty sure of two things, You are completely outclassed by the defender, and you’re a duke player. [/QUOTE]
