    So, don't turn it over and score every time down the court. Our offensive efficiency may be more important than our base defense.

    I can see the headlines now: Flagg gets bounced by the University of Houston only to get drafted by the Houston Rockets with the #1 pick.

    I watched the crunch time highlights again and it's remarkable how Flagg specifically cost Duke numerous times. He fell for Sharp's pump fake, couldn't handle the inbounds pass and got beat on the put-back dunk. He'll be fine in the NBA, but this game deserves to stay with him for a while.

    Must have been a Spurs fan.
    Other videos later show coach giving Dream and then Nance a hug, so I think the block was temporary perhaps.

    To be fair, basketball-wise, it was an ugly game. SO many turn overs and botched plays, but understandable from the stake perspective, and how unexperienced the players are, especially the Dukies. But you never can compare it to the NBA, unless you include the emotional aspect - and ESPN doesn't care less since they have no stake.

    He clobbered the **** out of Tugboat on that putback too. Should have absolutely been an And-1.

    To be fair basketball wise it was a beautiful game. Those two rebounds gathered and that tipped inbound pass by Mylik Wilson at the end of the game were all things of beauty. That put pack dunk by Tugler after the Duke turnover in the last minute was poetry in motion. Those two CLUTCH free throws by Roberts giving us the lead capitalizing on a one and one opportunity were a thing of beauty. That three pointer by Sharp, pump faking Flagg out of his jock and hitting to shrink the lead to three absolutely was top 10 material and a thing of beauty. The 11-1 run put forth by the Coogs to close out the game was remarkable. This win against Duke was one of the most beautiful games I have seen in my life. Sometimes I guess you can't see the forest for the trees. I liked it so much I watched it again yesterday.

    Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. And ESPN certainly prefers a W h o r e.
