I'm glad to be off to boo the Tar Holes in person and then watch the Devils play a road game. Go Hogs! Go to Hell, Carolina!
You'll be a sad little man by 11 p.m.

Didn't seem like they missed any ft's, either...Saint wrote:Duke's problem was SC shooting 70% in the 2nd half.

The whole ACC was overrated this year.hedge wrote:Once again, Dook was vastly overrated by just about everybody, when once again their whole game succeeds or fails on the 3 point shot, and they failed again tonight. They ended up shooting a respectable 37% from behind the arc, but a few of those were desperation 3's after the game had pretty much been decided. Yeah, they beat us twice this year by shooting lights out, but that's not usually a recipe for making a championship run. Certainly hasn't been for Duke lately. Every one of their championship teams had solid post play and didn't rely almost solely on jacking up 3's. Pussy shot factor fails again. I love it...
hedge wrote:Hard to argue with that based on tourny results. I do think Dook was obviously a better team than USC this year, but they were, as usual, susceptible to losing to an inferior team. They amply proved throughout the year that they knew how to lose in bunches and to some pretty bad teams (well, NCState at least), but everybody focused on their good wins (and they had several) and forgot about their bad losses. I must be getting old and soft, but I actually kinda felt bad for them last night. Not during the game, I was pulling for SC and cursing Duke almost as much as if it had been us playing them, but after about an hour after the glow had worn off, I did feel kinda sorry for them. But not that sorry...

My only problem is if they wait and he backs out /changes mind / wins NBA title, they are going to be holding their dick in their hands with no coach.

I always heard Kobe was going to Duke, not UNC. There was speculation about LeBron going to UNC because he liked Jordan but that was always a moot point.
I do remember Hedge's brother telling me about this German guy named Nowitzki that Henrik Rodl was supposed to deliver to UNC but I'd never heard of Nowitzki at that point. A short while later, everyone knew about him. I had seen that story on him going to Kentucky before.
Wake, FSU, Duke, Louisville, UVa, VPI.... all of them out.sardis wrote:The whole ACC was overrated this year.hedge wrote:Once again, Dook was vastly overrated by just about everybody, when once again their whole game succeeds or fails on the 3 point shot, and they failed again tonight.

Just like the 60's and early 70's, you're paying for the engine in those muscle cars...and shit handling (when compared to other vehicles with similar hp).AlabamAlum wrote:Dodge makes a Hellcat with 707hp. Friend has one. I have driven it. I got it to 190 and could have gone faster. It felt like it was going to take off, though. Scared the shit outta me.
