Summary
A special Friday morning edition of Steady Droppin' Dimes, Sam Webb and Daniel Horton discussed Michigan's loss to Duke, noting the physicality of the game and the challenges Duke posed with their size and athleticism. Horton emphasized the importance of guard play and the need for Michigan's guards, highlighting the reasons for their struggles versus the Blue Devils, and emphasizing alternate ways they might be effective if they struggle shooting the basketball in future games. Sam and Daniel then previewed Friday night’s matchup with Illinois, focusing on the Illini’s offensive efficiency and the need for Michigan to defend well and attack the paint.
