Kudos to the Cards on their win over Duke. With 10 to go in the second half Duke's legs were gone. It was a masterful presentation of Rick Pitino's trademark style of suffocating man to man defense and transition. The pace of the game was electric against a very good Duke team. Russ Smith and Peyton Siva drove to the basket at will and set up the score even when they did not take it to the rim themselves. The only downer was the broken leg of Kevin Ware late in the first half. No one likes to see a player get hurt but this was pretty gruesome. After watching Nerlens Noel go down with the torn ACL earlier this year one has to wonder who will recover first.
This was the game I was concerned about for Louisville. They should go on now but this has been a year of shockers, pun intended.
