It doesn't get any better than this as the North Carolina Tar Heels meet the Duke Blue Devils as the ACC is still up for grabs. The 'Heels have what it takes to beat the Dukies but that is easier said than done.

Duke is in the Cat Birds Seat but can be in the Drivers Seat if they can beat the 'Heels. Duke comes in at 11-1 in ACC play and UNC 10-2 as Duke beat the Cavs of UVA and in turn the Cavs beat the 'Heels as UVA did Duke a huge favor beating UNC helping their own cause as well staying in the mix in ACC Play at 11-2 beating the Hokies of Buzz Williams Ball last night.

Now the Plot thickens as the 'Heels get Duke in Cameron Indoor with stakes almost as high as they can get. Duke Freshmen Zion Williamson and R.J. Barrett will be on full display but make no mistake about it UNC has two Freshmen who can get it done in PG Coby White and Nassir Little. It will come down to the Duke "4" and the 'Heels Upperclassmen like pre-season All-ACC Dude Luke Maye he has to play out of his mind in order for the 'Heels to have any shot and that is putting it mildly...

PLAYBOOK

Transition Defense is paramount for both...Duke is lethal getting out and Carolina likes to get out bit they need to proceed with caution!

Zion Rules as UNC needs to force him to stay out the painted-area and keep him off the offensive glass...

the Money Ball as UNC shoots it better than Duke but the 'Heels cannot leave and die by the Money Ball...

Turnovers vs "Live" Turnovers" and the "Live" TO's are the killers...

UNC Bench vs Duke Bench as UNC has the advantage with Freshman Nas Little and Sterling Manley...

Coach Williams vs Coach K and watch the Feet as in Sneaker Heat...Lol! 

UNC has to limit Zion "Splash Plays"...that might keep the Cameron Krazies at bay! 

Stay aggressive getting to the stripe is your best ally...don't settle for J's bailing out the "D"...

Freshmen Point Guards Coby White vs Tre Jones 

"Pace" both teams want to get on the Autobahn but at what cost...UNC is fast and Duke is faster interesting how the "Pace" will play out!
