Enemy Lines

an opposing coach's view

'Duke has the best floor spacing of any I team in the country, and it's great at penetrating and pitching for jump shots....

Chris Duhon sets the tone, but he takes a lot of threes that make you think, What kind of shot was that?...

J.J. Redick is as good a shooter as I've seen at that age, but he's the weak link in the defense. If you run him off screens when he's playing D, that can affect him at the other end....

Luol Deng is the real deal. He could've come out this year and been a high NBA pick....

A healthy SHAVLIK RANDOLPH is a big boost. He's extremely gifted offensively, and despite his size, he may be most comfortable outside facing the basket.
