I know that the announcers said it a handful of times but man it's not often when Scheyer, Singler, and Smith are all on their games shooting-wise. 63 out of the 78 points came from them. The team was 52.7 FG pct and 52.0 from 3. The points that I mentioned (boards and 2nd shots, staying out of foul trouble) definitely helped. Low turnovers and good D definitely did as well.
If Duke rolls that into Monday night they can't lose. Butler really needs to step up, they shot horribly tonight.. just over 30pct. Less than 25pct from 3. Only 5 assists total.
It's hard to not see Duke winning this but the kids at Butler have a lot to prove and Duke has definitely given us head scratchers in the tourney before.
Hopefully Da'Sean Butler only sprained his knee, but you have to imagine he blew it out, maybe Skinny Tee can help us on that one
