Once again, there will be no KP report on WF at Duke basketball game set for tomorrow because: a) the game will be non-competitive, b) if Zion farts, ESPN breaks it down, so no reason to "analyze" the over-exposed opponent.
Particulars: Duke is 25-4 (13-3). KP projects a 29 point Blue Devil win (91-62). "Historically competitive" WF has a 0.4% chance to pull the upset. Duke is 2-2 in the games that Zion has missed (IIRC, 3 of the 4 have gone under), but they are coming off a dominating 30 point win over deflated Miami. This is senior night for Duke, but Duke's only senior is Antonio Vrankovic - a Zagreb native with garbage minutes in 14 Duke blowouts. If K starts Vrakovic, he will be instructed to take out Sarr's bum ankle. Pure class.
So, for those taking in this glorified exhibition game on ESPN's mother-ship channel, the night will drone on with over-the-top reminisces recounting all of the great times spent watching Duke's heralded 4 freshman grow from boys to men over their last 118 days in Durham. Pure emotion as the Duke program is all about STUDENT-athletes and K's everlasting love "for his guys". In about a month, this foursome can sign their lucrative Nike endorsement contracts and start making it rain. Yet, we all know that they play for the love the game and for those snotty "Crazies" from their affluent New Jersey enclaves.
Yes, Cam, Tre and RJ love to party with you.
If Williamson sits this one out, get ready for the "Zion Cam" as we can't miss a minute of praise for him as such an amazing teammate cheering for his team as if "the chosen one" is the first to root for his team while sitting on the bench. Gag.
