![]() And that's when an introduction takes place. Bobby Hurley, meet Isiah Thomas. Speaking of expletives, he's the one whose backside you keep staring at as he blows by you on the way to floater after floater and layup after layup. Forget the team game. Forget the chalkboard. This is "a little child shall lead them" time. Thomas scores 24 second-half points and the Hoosiers blow the Dukies away. Final score: Indiana 88, Duke 70 |

![]() On the court, it's Art Heyman's battle with George McGinnis that has the crowd amped. Heyman brought his 25 ppg game average and tried to reach it in the first half. Unfortunately for Duke, the great Christian Laettner has a bad game. Too much Walt Bellamy. In the end, Johnny Dawkins found out that whoever told him he could get at Isiah by trying to intimidate him -- lied. Final score: Indiana 88, Duke 78 |
