These things seem obvious to me, but I haven't won 3 championships or been watching Duke for 30+ years, so maybe I am oversimplifying things. I mean when you double a guy, it leaves someone else open, right? That guy could theoretically score... maybe not as easily or consistently as Maynor was scoring, but he might.
