FUCK EM

win it

I'm not saying Jon won't be good, but if people are expecting K 2.0 they will be disappointed, that bar is way too high

K from 86 through 2004? No. K from 2005 to now, with 3 final fouls? He can absolutely do that

The tourney is so flukey and luck based though. My suggestion of coach evaluation would be judging based on a mix of preseason championship odds and after season Kenpom rating.

Just saw a clip where K's being interviewed on the floor after the game, Paolo eventually comes over and says, "This is the GOAT right here," which of course K bristles at and he looks back and tells Paolo to "Shut up."

Wtf... even on a night like tonight this bastard can make me want to punch him in the face... lol...

But I still love him, warts and all...

 

[aiw]

That was actually great and made me want to hug him, not punch him in the face.

I thought he handled that well. That he said shut up in a harmless way as his immediate, playful reaction rather than trying to bask in the glory every non-Duke fan thinks he constantly seeks.

That seemed in good fun to me. I think you're misinterpreting it.

Ok, I trust your guys' take on it. I definitely thought it was kind of odd, but I think y'all are right. And it makes more sense that way.

My apologies for the clumsy distraction on a really great night for all of us.

 

[Grit]

This was a win no one here deserved, but that we all have to enjoy for as long as we have until UNC wins tomorrow.

 

[rome8180]

Speak for yourself. I deserve it for hating on the team and motivating them to prove me wrong.

I find this questionable. We had a bajillion layups and our threes were all wide open.

 

[DurhamSon]

weird, I don’t remember us really making any particular bullshit tonight, certainly not 10 points worth. And if the margin had been less, we wouldn’t have given up those uncontested last few scoring possessions, so we’d still have won.

Also, does that take into account how good each team is at actually making shots? An open jumper for Duke is inherently more valuable than the same jumper for Arkansas.

Apparently it takes into account the actual player taking the shot.

I dunno we had a few drive to the lane get stuck pivot and fadeaway shots that went in from Wendell, AJ and Jeremy IORC. Also Wendell’s fast break running free throw shot that rattled in
