Our Take: Duke at Carolina

Posted Feb 6, 2008

This game will hinge on two key issues: How effectively Carolina can handle the ball against Duke's press, and how effectively Duke can manage Tyler Hansbrough's interior presence. Even if Ty Lawson is able to play in this game, he'll probably not be at full effectiveness. And while Quentin Thomas can motor, he's certainly not the speedster Ty Lawson is. (WRAL.com)
