8The Daily Tar Heel Wednesday, January 18, 1989 Living Colour will make a Chapel Hill appearance in Straggling halt streak vs. No. By DAVE GLENN Sports Editor It's finally time for the showdown that college hoops fans everywhere have been waiting for since the first preseason poll hit the presses. The Duke Blue Devils, ranked number one in the nation, carry a perfect 13-0 record into tonight's contest in Cameron Indoor Stadium against the 14-3 Tar Heels. The 12th-ranked Tar Heels must bounce back from Sunday's 106-83 loss at Virginia to improve on their 1-1 record in ACC competition. The Blue Devils boast a 3-0 ACC mark entering the game, with victories over Wake Forest, Virginia and Maryland. The Duke squad also has road victories over Kentucky and Miami to its credit in non-conference play. Gone from last year's Duke team are defensive ace Billy King and sharpshooter Kevin Strickland, but a great deal of talent remains for coach Mike Krzyzewski. This is a team with a real chance to reach the Final Four for the third time in four years. But, for now, the Blue Devils must face a Tar Heel squad with revenge in its eyes. The 1987-88 UNC cam paign marked the first time in more than 20 years that the Tar Heels lost to Duke three times in one season, including a 96-81 embarrassment at Duke and a 65-61 squeaker in the ACC tournament in March.

Tair Hee advantage in this series, which began way back in 1920, the record stands at 6 wins and 6 losses from 1984-89. But the revenge factor alone will not be enough for the Tar Heels to stop the Duke string of victories. Dean Smith's UNC squad, already faced with the absence of senior guard Jeff Lebo because of an ankle injury he sustained in the Virginia game, must contend with the presence of Duke All-American forward Danny Ferry. The 6-foot-10 senior, who scored 58 points in one game earlier this season, presents a matchup problem for any defense but a particularly big one for the Tar Heels. If you like numbers, try these on for size. Ferry is averaging 22.7 points per game, best in the ACC. He is shooting 60.1 percent from the field, second only to teammate Alaa Abdel naby. He also ranks in the top 10 in the ACC in free throw percentage (71.1), rebounding (7.1), assists (5.0) and even three-point field, goal percentage (44.4). Is there anything this guy can't do? Well, no. Ferry's game is a near perfect balance of inside and outside basketball. He's strong enough to get off the inside shot, quick enough to drive to the hoop, and smooth enough to find the net with any shot in the 1 8-22 foot range. His quickness, strength and height combine to make him a force on the boards and his great vision on the floor enables him lff f ivf lff f laiMf flllMllllllMI itti, yVaVr iViWi A'. . . ,- w i - n ti MA loin row I Win mi m m .Mi- hi mi ifii Tn An Outrageuus Comedy From The Director Of "Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown" HUGELY ENTERTAINING!"

Well, this is a major problem for the Tar Heels. Smith could try 6-10 center Scott Williams, but he is a step too slow to follow Ferry on the outside. Sophomore forward Rick Fox is another possi bility, but he could foul out in the first half if he had to guard the big man. Steve Bucknall, arguably the team's best defender, has been con sistently assigned to the opposing team's point guard and will probably take on Quin Snyder. J.R. Reid? C'mon, Ferry would score 60. Whatever Smith decides to do, keep an eye on this matchup tonight knowing that only one thing is for sure. Whoever does attempt to guard Ferry will need, and get, help from his teammates. In the backcourt, the Blue Devils are led by senior point man Quin Snyder and off-guard Phil Hender son. Snyder is second in the ACC in assists, but has struggled with his outside snooting this season. Hender son, a 6-4 shooting guard, is fourth on the Duke squad with 10.7 ppg and is hitting at a 54 percent clip from the field. Believe it or not, the Blue Devils can be just as impressive at the defensive end of the floor. Though they are a notch below last year's defensive prowess, they still have managed to force opponents into committing more than 20 turnovers per game so far this year. Before an important Tar Heel possession, watch for the "palms down" motion the Duke players use to get themselves psyched for a particular defensive series. The play ers on the court, almost in unison, crouch down and slap their hands on the court in a symbolic display of the concept of team defense, something the Tar Heels have been seriously lacking in recent weeks. 9 4 7 ELUOTROAD I H Ctv E.

Other poor slobs can purchase theirs at $10.50 today or $12.50 on the day of the show. The opening act will be The Big Dipper. The best description of Jeff Lebo will definitely not play. The huge burden falls on King Rice to create shots for his teammates and for Steve Bucknall to hit from outside. Backcourt The return of J.R. inside has helped, not disrupted, the Tar Heels. S. Williams must hit the boards and K. Madden must start taking smart shots again. Frontcourt Jeff Denny and H. Davis must take over in Lebo's absence. Pete Chilcutt has become a force on the glass. Rick Fox has been more up than down. Depth Virginia found the answer to the trapping pressure defense. Fox, Williams and Bucknall must be physical without fouling out of the game early. Defense Before I get hung or charged with heresy, I will name but a few reasons. Bucknall guarding Crotty instead of Morgan. A slow team full-court pressing. Coaching Thompson vows to fight ag From Associated Press reports WASHINGTON Georgetown coach John Thompson said he will take no more symbolic walks off the basketball court to protest a new NCAA rule on scholarships, but he left open the possibility he would continue his demonstration by skip ping the Hoyas' game at Providence tonight.

"I'm trying to be as reasonable as I possibly can be, and permit those who realize it might be a mistake to do something about it." Proposal 42, which is to go into effect in 1990, would prevent high school students who meet only part of the NCAA's criteria from receiving athletic scholarships while they sit out their first year of collegiate eligibility under Proposition 48. ; Thompson has claimed the prop--osal is discriminatory because of the; emphasis it places on tests that Thompson and educators claim are biased against people from low socio-; economic classes. ; Southeastern Conference Commis-; sioner Harvey Schiller, one of the most vocal proponents of Prop 42 now admits the legislation needs to be "more sensitive and understand mg.w Thompson questioned the ballot-! ing process used in adopting the controversial rule. Comparing a computer printout that showed how each school voted with information he had gathered from individual athletic directors, he said he noted a discrepancy.
