You know who has great athletes? The Raiders. They are going all the way this year.
There used to be a coach in the NFL who said... You can find all of the athletes you want at the Olympics, only half of them are women and the other half don't play football.
Duke isn't missing athletes. They are missing having one of the top PGs in the nation. That's it. Maybe Greg will get there, maybe not, but Duke isn't missing athletes. That is just a misconception perpetuated by the kind of offense we played this year. If this past year's team didn't turn the ball over so much, they would have run more and people would be talking about all of Dukes athletes... whom people have already mentioned. FWIW, how good of a defender is Lawson? Is he locking guys down? He is quick, but not that good of a defender.
As people have mentioned, as a run-jump-strenth athlete, Demarcus is on JWill's level. So is Henderson... they just don't have the handle or shooting ability of JWill. They have his athleticism... they don't have his SKILL. What we don't have right now is guards with the combo of top-level quickness, strength, and skill that we have had in the past. But don't fall into the trap of thinking it is all a lack of athleticism.
