The Blue Devils entered the Yum! Center with a lot still to prove. Having given up 50% shooting for 3 games in a row, it’s clear there are still some extensive issues defensively for Jon Scheyer’s squad. The first half against Louisville didn’t do a lot toward answering those questions or to quell the naysayers. Louisville, with the help of a porous Duke defense, got real comfy at home and bombarded Duke from beyond the arc. The Cardinals cashed in on ten 3-pointers in the first half with Ryan Conwell hitting 4-7 in the first half and Aly Khalifa hitting 4-4 – yes a 6’11 center who came in shooting under 33% from the field and under 28% from 3, hit four 3’s in the first half.
