I'm guessing we start Sean J. ( over Rod P ) with instructions of "You stick like glue to Abraham. Do NOT cheat off him to help out on defense. If someone else beats their man off the dribble let DS, JW or AM handle the situation." The only way DU gets beat is if Abraham beats us - the rest of their players will not be able to score enough to keep up with DU ( barring a horrendous night from 3 pt range ) - or - if we get a screw job by the refs (i.e.non calls on DU put backs, and hand checking as DU players drive to the hoop ). -- Duquesne Dukes Basketball Forum

Rebounds! I would start Rod for the rebounding. He had a great game, looked good, some nice moves, and we need to keep that momentum going, plus I think it helps Damian underneath to free him up a bit more so the 5 man isnt always beating him down. (NT) -- DUDude, Monday, November 15, 06:31:30pm
- Both of you guys make good points. I think I'd go with Sean Johnson to start and bring Rod in to replace him at the first media time out. Rod's proclivity towards picking up quick fouls bothers me and I think coming off the bench could help in that regard. Let him get a feel for the pace of the game before going in. -- VBC, Monday, November 15, 07:04:50pm
- I will add my vote to Sean starting and playing Abraham straight up. Rodrigo can spot in this game. BTW, I'll be behind the Dukes bench. Anyone else attending? Bummer, nice meeting you at the Bluefield game! (NT) -- kenOTR73, Monday, November 15, 08:27:29pm
  - I'm going. -- VBC, Monday, November 15, 08:44:14pm
    - That sounds like a good idea VBC. Maybe I will see you there. (NT) -- JPG-DU81, Tuesday, November 16, 07:52:11pm
  - Nice meeting you too. My wife and I are going. (NT) -- Bummer3341, Tuesday, November 16, 07:06:09am
