gta_player5 Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 I'm upset that Duke lost, and in that way to! To an unseeded team, I thought they would make a comeback late, but Reddick was forcing his shots and trying to do to much. The Hoya's defense late in the game was very tight, but Duke has no excuse for missing those free throws. The refs were deffinatley in favor of Georgetown, those layups missed by Duke at the end had foul written all over them, but what ever.....

It's about time Duke got a taste of the refs favoring their opposition. I’ve watched so many games where the officiating was so disgustingly in Duke’s favor it made me want to vomit. I’m a diehard Maryland fan, though, so I’m probably exaggerating a little. Anyway, I’m thrilled that Duke lost. Maryland won tonight, putting them at 4-2 in the ACC. Let’s hope things keep going like this.

D Jones Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 Oklahoma vs. Texas this week. Oklahoma has been dispointed, since they were ranked in the top 5 in some polls this year. They've won almost every game very close, and I don't think they can handle a team like Texas. If they can force turnovers, and not make turnovers they can win, but I don't know.

Cuse510 Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 It's official now: Syracuse sucks this year. They just lost their 4th game in a row, this time to Seton Hall. I know they've been playing good teams, but they should have at least won one of those games. Anyway, I'll be glad if they even make the tournament this year. As of right now though, it's looking like NIT...

Cuse510 Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Sorry for the double post, but this has been inactive real long... I'm sure you all have heard about this, but I'd like to point out some disturbing evidence that Duke has the referees in their pocket. In their previous 2 games (against BC and FSU) Duke has taken a combined 79 free throws to their opponents 24. 55 more free throws! These last 2 games have both come down to close calls, with Duke getting the benefit (even though the FSU replay clearly shows Shelden Williams knocking the ball out of bounds.) Now, the ACC is even suspending the officiating crew from the Duke-FSU game because they gave an FSU player a technical for not retaliating against Shelden Williams. Coincidently, that happened to be the FSU player's 5th foul. The question is, why do referees cheat for Duke and why is it allowed to happen? As you can tell, I hate Duke.

D Jones Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Shelden Williams has gotten away from a lot of sh*t recently. The foul he caused at the BC game, and whenever he got into that guys face at the FSU game, that's usually a techinal foul and not to mention another foul he caused at the end of the game. And cuse, there's great news, the NCAA has fired (or suspended) those refs that refed the BC game. Just said it on ESPN. I watched the OU/KU game, and I was so f*cking pissed. We need new coaches by the end of this year. We had a 18 point lead with 4 minutes to go, and KU came back and won by 1. I was so f*cking pissed, I wanted to punch a hole in my wall. It's f*cking ridicolous. If you have a 18 point lead with 4 minutes left, and find a way to ruin that and lose, you deserve to coach at the high school level.

D Jones Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Mike Davis is suppose to announce his resignation from the Indiana head coaching job. And Eddie Sutton openly admited that he was drinking the bottle when he got into a crash last friday. He won't coach anymore this year, and has gotten himself into re-hab.

D Jones Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 J.J. Redick has really been sucking ass lately.

gta_player5 Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 Redick has hit sort of a rough patch. Though in the FSU game he did drop 30 points. So I think it was a team effort in that loss to FSU, the defense was horrible.

D Jones Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 Without Shelden Williams, Duke would have no inside game what so ever, and whenever it comes down to it, Williams gets the rebound when needed. Redick only has a outside shot, and isn't much of a passer or a driving it in sort of guy. I see him being a Kyle Korver type of NBA player.

I'm not sure you can say they have a bad team. -If FSU can beat Duke, UNC can. -Anything can happen in a huge rivalry like this. I remember 3 years ago, I believe, a UNC team that didn't even make the NCAA tournament beat a powerhouse Duke team. I think Duke will win also, but UNC definitley has a good chance.

Burning-Ice Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 Lol @ The King How 'bout 'em Tarheels!! Hell of a coaching/scouting job by Roy Williams, coach of the year for sure! I think UNC will make Elite 8 at most, with a team that young I don't see them winning..Next year though I can easily imagine it happen. Duke are overrated..so are Villanova. Now Villanova are a hell of a shooting team but they have absolutely NO inside presence...that will hurt you against interior superior teams. I think UConn are probably the most solid team and have the best chance at winning the tournament, either them or Belmont Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/222470-college-basketball-discussion/?do=findComment&comment=3559970 Share on other sites More sharing options...
D Jones Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 Oklahoma got hammered by the Longhorns, embarassingly. UNC killed Duke. J.J. Redick sucked, didn't contribute except points, and when you can't get offesnive and defensive boards you won't win. If Duke had someone who has was just as good in the inside as Shelden Williams, they'd be unstopable. But in this case, Duke relies on Redick's shooting, and when he sucks, they loose.

D Jones Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 Yeah, they sat out most of the starters 10 minutes into the 2nd half. I think they might be resting the players for the big-12 tournament, since they seen that Bookout got injured in the 1st half. But yeah, stupid ass passes by Everrett, Taj Gray's shots weren't going down and we got out-rebound. Hopefully we'll regroup for the big-12 tournament.
