Redick's Sweet 16 Slump

This is from an AP article previewing today's Duke-LSU game.

Quote:
"I can't remember what happened the first three years in the Sweet 16," Redick said Wednesday, sounding downright persuasive heading into an Atlanta Regional matchup against LSU. "Did we lose one of the games or something? I don't know. I can't remember."

Well, here's a quick refresher:

Redick had probably the worst game of his brilliant career against Kansas in the 2003 regional semifinals, managing just five points on 2-of-16 shooting -- including 1-of-11 from beyond the 3-point arc.

Last year, the Blue Devils went out at the same point of the tournament against Michigan State, which held Redick to 13 points on 4-of-14 shooting -- equaling his second-worst output of the season and nearly nine below his average.

Even in 2004, when Duke made it to the Final Four, Redick managed just 13 points against upstart Xavier in the regional final.
Think there's anything to Redick's apparent woes in the round of 16? Is this the year that he finally ends this supposed slump? Or is he just not a clutch player? What do you folks think?

Re: Redick's Sweet 16 Slump

Well, how about 3-18 from the floor and just 11 points in today's 62-54 loss to LSU. Once again, Redick struggles in the Sweet 16, and just like that Duke is gone. Why does this kid disappear in the third round?
