Another reason to pull for the Johnnies - Duke plays a heckuva lot of 2-3 zone, and they're good at it. Often they pressure to halfcourt and then drop back into said zone, which is one of the defensive strategies I've worried about facing this year. I think both St. John's and South Carolina are more player-to-player oriented, given their relative athleticism on the perimeter.
As you say, first things first. Beat the Gamecocks!
