Josh played a really nice game for us - 4-6 from the floor, 7 boards (2 offensive) and 4 assists, and it showed in the stats. Both the offense and defense functioned better when he was on the court. DeMarcus gave us 16 very valuable defensive minutes - in that time, Tech scored just 24 points (compared to 43 in 24 minutes when he was off). Both he and Lee looked a step or so slow on offense, but it didn't show too badly on defense - Nelson was hassling their guards all over the perimeter. I posted yesterday that I thought Duke would try and bomb Tech out of the building from outside. For the first minute or so of the game, it looked like that would be the case. But when a few shots didn't fall for Redick, they committed to going inside to Williams, and the big man responded with a monster game - 24 and 15. A couple trends I pointed out yesterday did continue - Tech did a good job protecting the ball (just 9 turnovers on 72 possessions, or 12.5% TO percentage), and Duke gave up very few points from the line and beyond the arc (just 19 of 67), meaning Virginia Tech got 71.7% of its points off 2 point field goals. Also, after getting torched on the pass by Georgetown, the AB ratio returned to ACC norms - VT got just 33% of its baskets off assists, keeping the average for Duke conference opponents down in the 30s for the year. Still not a great job on the glass - Virginia Tech's OR% wasn't fantastic, at 36%, but considering they were last in the league coming in, it's kind of disappointing. All in all, I was still a little surprised at the effort - there were stretches where we looked flat, and seemed content to play down to VPI. Still, a win's a win, and a road win's even better. Hopefully I'll get the chance to put up a full preview of Duke-UVA for tomorrow, but I probably won't have any additional information on games to watch for (so you all can just scour the schedule and standings and find one that looks interesting for your own selves).
