I think the key to WVU is helping Melo by letting Dez bring up the ball vs the pressure. Their 3 will have a tough time staying with Dez and Terps need to attack the pressure and push tempo vs trying to beat halfcourt defense. MD is built for transition, but Turgeon does not seem to promote pushing tempo and attacking with Dez and Jake. Tomorrow, they must look to score everytime they break pressure and force numbers. I would also expect Huggy to play some zone. I would love to see Turgeon call an alley oop JUST ONCE to Dez and Jake off a baseline screen from Dodd. That has been there all year. They should also try to play some zone against WVU. They have a quick and athletic team, but not great shooters. This matchup scares me as we don't match up well. Key to the game will be Dion Wiley coming in and taking pressure off Melo. Melo could get worn down if they don't help him with good sets trying to break the pressure and letting Dez bring up the ball some. We need Jake to recover, but I fear he has gone into a shell and won't fate well against a physical team like WVU. Game will go to the wire - Terps 59 WVU 57
