So those are still tournaments?

Yes. NIT final four is aTm, St. Bonaventure, Washington State and Xavier

 

[hotelblue]

interesting foul called against tech. especially since there wasn’t one.

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

Where was the foul?

 

[Jacobbleedsblue]

Duke's getting a little help now

 

[LineSkiCat14]

Good God the officiating is sickening.. how was that an And1? How can a team have 1 foul in 10 min?

 

[katwest]

Banchero took two steps before we put the ball in the floor no call.

 

[LineSkiCat14]

Another one lolol

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

Refs coming in to save the day for Duke.

 

[JerseyCat84_rivals57050]

Duke player makes a layup

Raftery: “He’s got moxie!”

 

[hotelblue]

and another. clean steal. this is the critical point of the game in terms of momentum. which team is going to impose their will, and duke getting 3 good calls. man

 

[Titpwhami2014]

This game has been fun to watch. Players making plays.

I remember when we had those players.

 

[Crawfords Corner]

There's that beneficial phantom foul called in Duke's favor.

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

Too predictable.

 

[Cat in ga]

The fix is in

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

There's that beneficial phantom foul called in Duke's favor.

And it was going to be a fast break going the other way.

There was a moment of brief hesitation between the ball being slapped loose and the call. In that moment, we all knew it was coming.

 

[bbnkat02]

I take two days off and the basketabll world goes nuts. Damn fine job Arky.

Once again, Gonzaga becomes Mark FEWER.

 

[TheDude73]

K just stands there now. Much less active against the refs. Maybe because he knows they’ve been “taken care of” in his going away year.

 

[Cats_2010]

Duke called for 6 fouls the whole game and at least 2, if not 3, of those were intentional at the end of the first half. Hopefully have a repeat to where they have too many fouls to give the last minute of the game and lose as they did zions year.

 

[bbnkat02]

The fix is in

At this point let the rat bastard have it. Everyone not named Duke will know it’s ********.

 

[BigKari]

Ref yucking it up with K.

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

This is why I should have bet on Duke about a month ago.

 

[Crawfords Corner]

Get in there b**** ball!!!

 

[RunninRichie]

K jawing with ref after Banchero walks to the store, buys a soda, and walks back.

 

[UKUGA]

Finally - a +1 that I wanted to see

 

[hotelblue]

tech’s hustle for loose balls has been pretty unreal. they weathered the storm gotta hang around.

 

[Crawfords Corner]

3 certainties in life. Death, taxes, and phantom fouls in Duke's favor.

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

Beat these dirty privileged scum with a brick.

 

[UKUGA]

It took 11 minutes, But Tech finally figured out how to defend Williams.

 

[RunninRichie]

k just said soft LMAO

 

[Jacobbleedsblue]

Roach walked

 

[Cat in ga]

Banchero travels again

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

Coach K is such an entitled schmoe.

 

[UKUGA]

Why is it when a team gets away with a clear TO, they always seem to hit a huge basket?

 

[ck-2]

Tech missing easy shots.

 

[RunninRichie]

black ref after convo with K ''yes sir, sorry sir, wont happen again sir''.

 

[DaDirtyLeb69]

Griffin walked before that kick out to banchero for the 3 but duke ain’t getting called for that

 

[NoahColeLiam2024!]

I’ve never cheered this hard for a non-Uk related game. I really want to see K retire tonight. I will celebrate with him.

 

[gbl97]

It's fun to watch these coaches go to their bag of tricks on defense. Man-to-man is just one option for them.

 

[hotelblue]

Why is it when a a team gets away with a clear TO, they always seem to hit a huge basket?

you’re referring to the travel at the top of the circle.

just a huge 3 by banchero. tech had a chance to build a lead. bah

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

Would there be anything sweeter than Coach K losing to this Bob Jones preacher lookalike?
