Carolina is far and away a better team than Duke.

Duke gets the win because K decided to play his role players like Goldwire and Vrankovic.  They came in the 1st half down 13 and started the 2nd half.

Anyone at all excited about tonight’s game? Feel like it’ll be really boring. But should come down to the end though so I want to watch.

I like both teams. Hoping no lucky crap for whoever wins.

The least I can remember ever caring

Virginia goes from one of the most embarrassing losses in basketball history last year to national champs this year. Hunter and Culver will be solid players next year in the NBA.

Weird hire, but I guess when you can't hire anyone else you gotta at least get someone decent

Whispers: now just get ride of off ball charges

 

I still don't quite follow you on this.  What if an offensive player barrels over a defender, who is in a set and legal guarding position?

It’s not that hard...block. How about jump and contest the shot? Rules change all the time, why are you stuck on the current language? Taking a charge is no longer a safe play in basketball. They need to get rid of it. 

If you want to get technical and say it can happen anywhere, then limit this to no charges in the lane. The NBA has done a great job of adapting the rule of verticality. This further promotes it.

I like moving the line back but the shot clock reset is the dumbest rule in sports.  I think that if you  work to get the offensive rebound, you should get a full shot clock.

It’s only taking away the “bring the ball up” time. It’s fine and helps the game speed up a bit.
