Game Thread [2021-22] 2 Duke vs. 3 Texas Tech (NCAA Tournament S16)

[JohaadDBC]

It’s like when there’s multiple fouls on a drive. The first foul is called, and the second (often after the whistle) isn’t. I just don’t get the outrage here. I’ll find a replay one way or another. I’ve got to see this again.

Here you're describing a bang bang play situation, which is not relevant to this discussion whatsoever.

Lol ok. I’m trying to give similar (hence the use of the word “like”) situations to show why I don’t think this is really that big of a deal.

Did I ban you once or something? I’m not sure I ever knew how to do that, but this response seems a bit extreme. I know I haven’t been around as much lately, but I think most know me on this board to not be a shit stirrer. Maybe I’m misreading tone. Either way, I’d love to find this replay.

I can't screen cap youubeTV, so I had to do this the janky way, but:

Foul is committed near half court



Both teams, including Williams have stopped playing


Williams thwaps Roach in the chest


And another angle of the contact, showing no attempt at the ball

Did you ban me once? Huh?

I'm telling you those two scenarios are not similar.

 

[JohaadDBC]

Honestly guys, are we really going to say he wasn’t “going for the ball”? If Mark did it, we’d be defending it. That’s all I’m saying. If that’s a tech on Duke, I’d be pretty unhappy.

Lol alright man. We’re good.

 

[ChibCU]

You can't be helped in this scenario. Keep your drunken recollection as fact.

 

[TyusStones5]

Thank goodness Roach didn't throw the ball at him.

He very clearly was not going for the ball. That's sort of the whole point.

I can’t agree with you at all here. If Mark did that and got a T, I would be pretty pissed at Mark for doing something so dumb. There are better views on the ceiling (?) camera and the baseline camera that show Williams’s intent was just to smack Roach in the body.

Can’t believe this site has turned into DBR with this debate. Everyone will be picking Duke to beat Arkansas next.

I’ll take your word for it. The screenshots don’t look bad to me at all. I’m sure I’m wrong if you and Zack feel this strongly about it.

I think we need @krsmith16 in here to dole out baneishments.

 

[deeyoukayeee]

I would suggest basking in the beauteous glow of what may be K's last win rather than debating what was probably a debatable play that had no bearing on the outcome of the game. That is what I'm doing, and it feels marvelous.

I want all of y'all to take @mkvl04 advice and quit being such shitty Duke fans and enjoy the win.

If my dad wants me to do that, then I will. Thanks, Pops.

I know we all moved past it, but my alter ego took the time to create a Vimeo account and make this shitty video. So I had to post it.

 

[JohaadDBC]

Yeah he wasn’t going for the ball.

 

[rhfarmer]

Buttering me up for that allowance raise.
