Disappointed in that, but we played against an outstanding team that really, really played at a high level today.” “We could never really get into a rhythm offensively,” said Pitt’s Capel, a former Duke player and assistant coach.

Just to know how poorly we thought we played at Miami — and we know we’re such a better team than that now.” That’s the type of defensive fortitude that foretells success in March. Duke isn’t going to score 1.5 points per possession every night and very well might not hit that again the rest of the season. Sorry to burst any bubbles — which Duke might have done to Pitt and former Duke assistant Capel by accident, oops — but this kind of dominance isn’t sustainable. It’s been the team’s bread-and-butter all season, even if Scheyer is right that it has hit another level of late. “It’s been as good as anybody’s in the country — especially down the stretch here — and for us, we just need to know what the winning recipe is.
