    I think Duke would beat us by 10.

    J-Will would run circles around Mooch.

    Boozer would shove Cato around inside.

    Walt would have a tough time guarding Dunleavy.

    Duke can shoot much better than we can, as well as run the floor.

    I really don't think the Rockets would win against Duke.

    Forget Duke, what about the Little Sisters of the Poor? Thank God they are not on the schedule. I don't like losing, but I could tolerate it better if this team played their heart out. Fans love courage, hustle, guts. They love fighting, biting, scratching. I would be thrilled if the whole team fouled out playing relentless determined defense. What do we have to lose? Throw caution to the wind. Put a few opposing team players in the stands. Get mean. If we can't win the games, what about starting some fights, generate some fines, kick some butt! Let's show some DESPERATION!

    the rockets would kill duke...griffin cannot even start for us whereas he would be an-all-american everything in college this year..willis would dominate whoever they put down there to bang with him...wizard would have some tricks up his sleeves...now, duke without losing its underclassmen would be a different story: C-boozer pf-Brand sf-Dunleavy sg-Mguette, pg-Williams with Duron and William Avery off the bench..they could take us

    I think we could beat Duke easily , Even though they love to shoot from the NBA Line over there .
