Duke

Adjusted defensive efficiency: 5

Duke is the best team in the country. The national championship is Duke’s to lose, because it seems like when they are playing at their best, they are at a different level than any other team in the country. Not to mention that they have 3 of the projected top 5 lottery picks, and a refrigerator with a 50″ vertical at small forward.

The Blue Devils continue to trend up at just the right time. Barring something insane happening, this is their year, and the rest of the country seems to know it.
