What I think will happen:
-Hood will go off for 20+ points
-Rasheed will come in with a massive chip on this shoulder and absolutely shut down Wayne Jr.
-Our 5s can't successfully guard their opposing 5, leading to a significantly higher proportion of Kansas points in the paint
-Wiggins nor Jabari will not be the best player on the floor
-We will shoot at least 30 free throws
-Coach K does NOT go to Wiggins to personally congratulate him (Coach K does with with a lot of really good opposing players, but Wiggins won't be one of them)-There will be at least 1 intentional foul, especially with all the breakaways
What I know will happen:
-With all these ridiculous athletes on the floor, there will be at least 1 play that is played over and over again on Sportscenter.
-Duke will win. But not with ease.
I can't see any scenario short of unsportmanlike conduct from the young man that would keep Coach K from consoling Mr. Wiggins after game. After all, Coach K is representing USA Basketball as well as Duke, and Wiggins is by most accounts certainly going to be offered a spot on the Olympic Team one day.
Man, if your Mom made you wear that color when you were a baby, and you're still wearing it, it's time to grow up!
