Sweet, Duke getting handed games.

Unf***ing real. Shelden Williams is a hack and gets away with it night after night. Must be nice to get the calls in every venue you play in. I wish Illinois big men could play defense like that, we would never lose.

Its not just the big men. The guards play the same style of defense. Wojo won a phony defensive player of the year award off of it. Opposing PG's would complain after games about scratch marks covering their arms from Wojo, Ed Cota showed the media one game with scratch marks all over his arm.

 

People just have to get used to it apparently, there is the way ref's call Duke games, and everyone else in America.

I agree. Their guards are allowed to put their hands all over the players they are guarding. I remember the Texas game, Redick was putting his hands all over the guy he was guarding, gave him a shove and no foul. Next time down the court, the short white guy guarding him bodied Redick up and there was an immediate call. Not to mention that the refs let Coach K intimidate them and never T him up despite the fact he swears at them and belittles them constantly. And yes it is pretty easy to read his lips when he is saying "f*** you"

Ed played overseas in Israel for 6 or so years, and made millions. But he certainly didn't get to suck coach K's dick every day of those 6 years like a certain special PG in Durham(or two). :P

 

Just giving you a hard time, its hard for me to be mean to you when you have been such a cool Duke fan over the year(s).

It's pretty easy to realize why Duke players so often suck in the NBA when you see the kind of calls that team gets. I'm sure it's a culture shock for rookies out of Duke when they are called for holds, hacks, and push offs in the league.

 

NIU did win tonight though, which was cool. Huge game Saturday afternoon for the MAC West lead, go out to eat afterwards, come home and watch Illinois and Penn State. Can't wait for Saturday.
