Duke Basketball Roundup
DBR Bites #142 - How To Get Back On Track Against Pitt

I mean, I think in one game they combined for like three minutes.

DBR Bites #142 - How To Get Back On Track Against Pitt

I'm sorry, for 10 minutes.

DBR Bites #142 - How To Get Back On Track Against Pitt

One had three, one had seven.

And one game, I think one of the guys โ€“ and it fluctuates who gets more of the minutes โ€“

DBR Bites #142 - How To Get Back On Track Against Pitt

I think those two guys, you're going to see them.

DBR Bites #142 - How To Get Back On Track Against Pitt

But even with Conte out for the rest of the year, with Cummings almost assuredly out at this point for the foreseeable future, they're really looking at six guys with Moore and Mullen maybe getting some spot minutes here and there.

So it's really interesting with the guessing of how these guys are going to play.

Duke Basketball Roundup
DBR Bites #142 - How To Get Back On Track Against Pitt

Yeah, it's just interesting with, again, the rotation they have, the lack of rotation that they're going to have, and especially with two guys that are very important to them being out.

DBR Bites #142 - How To Get Back On Track Against Pitt

It's going to be a tall test for Pitt, especially just with the rotations.

I think one thing, Jason, as we lead into the things to watch is let's see how physical they get as a result because that's, again, a traditional โ€“

kind of attribute that capable teams have.

And if you don't have that many people coming off the bench to try and spell you, it's hard to get physical because that just makes you expend more energy, especially if you're behind the eight ball and trying to catch up.

So it's going to be interesting to see how that works.

DBR Bites #142 - How To Get Back On Track Against Pitt

Another one Jason and I have, and this is kind of something we've seen over the last couple of games.

DBR Bites #142 - How To Get Back On Track Against Pitt

The three-point shooting for Duke has kind of regressed over the past five or six games.

DBR Bites #142 - How To Get Back On Track Against Pitt

You mentioned Isaiah Evans in the last game.

Duke Basketball Roundup
DBR Bites #142 - How To Get Back On Track Against Pitt

You've mentioned what he has done over the last four or five games, shooting just over 20%, which is very far off from his normal 35%.

Duke Basketball Roundup
DBR Bites #142 - How To Get Back On Track Against Pitt

And Duke as a whole has been down lately.

DBR Bites #142 - How To Get Back On Track Against Pitt

So on the press conference today, I asked John Shire about the three-point shooting and what it's going to take.

Duke Basketball Roundup
DBR Bites #142 - How To Get Back On Track Against Pitt

necessarily for him to or at least for the team to get some of those open looks to go down so here's what he had to say thank you good morning john thanks for your time this morning uh i i ask you about the game tomorrow you mentioned uh some of the slow starts in the second half but a lot of that has happened with a result of the three-point shot what have you seen from uh your three-point shooting over the last few games that maybe you can improve on as you enter pit
