Just because Redick is in the backcourt does not make it a very good complete backcourt. <br><br>As far as frontcourts, just because Duke beat them does not mean they have a better frontcourt. J.J. Redick had a lot to do with those wins. If McRoberts played the way he did in the ACC Tourney throughout the season, I'd definitely have them in the Top 10.Jeffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09248109745602548813noreply@blogger.com
