If the Duke-Kansas game was revealing then the Duke-Delaware game may have been more so. Duke won, 92-58, but first of all, it wasn’t as easy as that would suggest.
And one reason - not necessarily the main one - is simple: Delaware is a competent, well-coached team that refused to to go away until fairly late.
Duke built a lead in the first half which Delaware cut down to six by halftime and for much of the second half, they kept it fairly close.
The Blue Hens were down just 56-47 with 11:28 to go and maybe guys just got tired.
