Unless Duke makes it to the ACC final, they will be a #2 seed.

Next two games, Duke is ostensibly playing for a #1 seed. They win both they will be a 1 seed. They lose tonight or tomorrow and almost surely a 2 seed.

Win tomorrow and an absolute lock for a one.

Wouldn't you prefer RJ slashing rather than shooting a three? (granted if refs don't call everything a charge)

You kind of answered your own question. You want to keep seeing RJ force drives into the defense to commit a charge or get blocked? Remember the end of the Gonzaga game? You can't just say DRIVE IT! it's not that simple.

I'd prefer RJ adapt to the play of the game and make smarter decisions and avoid the charge.

You’d think that ESPN would have told the refs that Duke-Cheaters III would be a ratings bonanza

Funniest part was Goldwire gave a shot fake and the guy for Syracuse actually went for it and went flying by..great little pull up from Goldwire after that..

That’s the shot Cam needs to take instead of driving into the charge every time..

Right, and one of the ways to make a smart decision and avoid charges is to pull up for jumpers and floaters, and not just keep forcing drives into the defense especially against a zone.
