ttun basketball (Juwan out, Dusty May in)

Much as I'd like to continue ragging on the hated fucking Weasels, this one looks like a pretty good team. Plenty of time for Beilein to jump the shark, of course, but with Burke on board that may prove more difficult this season.

Duke plays defense, I will wait and see what effect that has on the vulvarienes.

I didn't see anything but the box score from the Memphis game but they had to have been getting a ton of easy layups from back cuts or just general shoddy Memphis D. They were damn near 60% from the field and the ratio of 2's to 3's was not the usual 50%.

My sense of it is that when that's taken away they go right back to chucking 3's on volume and hitting their usual 30-35%.

UM shooting over 83% in the second half, scored more in the last 9 minutes than the entire first half. Duke still maintaining a 53-47 edge.

edit: 58-47... 9:46 left.

Triggered by a Novak miss from three.

"I don't get that shot [by Novak]. Michigan has been in such good rhythm" (a miss after the aforementioned one)

Smotczyztyzitizziztrz travels his way to two free throws. 60-48

Michigan gets a stop... then Novak gets stuffed on the 2 ft jumper.

Followed by a Duke 3, 63-48.

More FTs coming up for Michigan as Hardaway beats his man, then jumps backwards away from the rim to draw contact.

Teams that play defense will handle UM. UM will suck on the road because they rely on the 3 too much. Like I said...why are these guys even ranked?

The more I watch college basketball, the more I realize there is an over abundance of mediocre ranked teams.

Michigan probably should be ranked, but not because they are that good. I just don't see too many good teams outside the top 5-10 teams.
