ESPN out to get Duke...

[starbigd]

They were outplayed... Period...

and outcoached. It happens.

 

[redseat]

and outcoached. It happens.

I will also agree with this....

So it doesn't matter if they have the best talent.. But it doesn't mean this was Coach Ks worst coaching

 

[starbigd]

I think it's his worst. He's done more with less talent.

9 times outta 10 he walks onto that court with superior talent and he's a HOFer himself.

He's not perfect......but I'm still gonna call a spade a spade. Especially given what he's allowed to get away with. I think we can all agree Duke players could stab members of the other team and they'd call a tech on the opposition for bleeding too much on the court.

In other words I do not feel sorry for them one iota.

 

[redseat]

Here we go again with the "officials" give Duke the wins crap.

 

[redseat]

But yes Duke had a TON of talent I certainly will give you that. Doesn't guarantee a Title...

 

[starbigd]

Never said it does. Just saying he got the least mileage out of what he had.

Duke gets calls. This is reality. Nearly ever opponent they face sees a higher number of calls against them. Its partly WHY so many people hate Duke.....because they do, in fact, get away with a LOT of crap on the court.

Grayson Allen is a prime example. He purposely tripped 4 players this year, one guy twice in a game.....and never even saw a tech, much less a suspension. Other players have been kicked out of games and suspended for weeks for this same offense - and NOBODY outside of Allen has been allowed to do it 4 times.....

Beyond pathetic. Duke is the most over-hyped and unduly media-sniffed team in the NCAA. Their goofy coach is a giant baby that constantly fails despite having superior talent.

Oh no doubt about Allen. I thought for sure he would have been suspended by the ACC or at least Coach K. Duke gets calls at home as most college home teams do...

Last Year doesn't count?

They get one every so often. Just like the Yankees. But just like the Yankees, most years they massively underperform and embarrass themselves.

They get calls pretty much everywhere. They get the benefit of the doubt more than not.

ESPECIALLY in critical moments.

Man where to start with all these ridiculous comments?

Duke wins the 2015 Title and you didn't say he was a genius did you? Wait, you said it was all the talent he had. Now Duke loses a game in the tournament, which every team will do except one, and now he's an awful coach. And if Duke gets all the calls then why didn't they get them last night? Duke had 19 team fouls while Oregon pressed the whole game and got 17. Wow, you guys are smart.

Never said he's an awful coach. In fact, I've called him a HOF coach.

He DID get outcoached this year. It happens. Get your panties out of a bunch. EVERYONE gets outcoached sooner or later.

 

[Wamu]

There's no doubt Coach Kruzawooooski is a great HC. Doesn't change the fact that dook makes me wanna puke though.


GO TAR HEELS!

You were saying this was Duke's worst year and worst coaching job yet he still got to the Sweet 16

Or @ least you hope their season ends tonight. I think they take care of business tonight though.

They should beat Indiana. Duke beat the shit out of them earlier this season.
