That when Duke gets a lead of 15 points or more, they forget how to shoot the fucking ball. They start shooting anything, no matter how dumb the shot is.
Just watch any Duke game, they don't know how to close out the other team.

Redick reminds me of Langdon.

Dick Vitale says he is the best shooter since Chris Mullin... All I can say is, how did they get that one loss? Oh yeah, Purdue whooped up on them! :D

All I seem to read about Reddick from Duke fans is how much they hate his shot selection and his defence.

Reddick like Langdon? But, JJ can actually play, not just shoot.
Duhon is terrible. They will not make the final four with him. They'd be better off booting him and replacing him with someone from an open tryout.

I'll gladly take Reddick's shot selection over anyone else's on the team, especially Duhon's.
And at the end of a close game, I don't want anyone else on the court besides Reddick.

That'd be a tough matchup. But convenient, since he doesn't like to pass anyway.

I just thought I'd bump this before I strangle my nonexistant cat. Once again, Duke goes to a four corner offense and squanders a 12 point lead

If FSU had any luck with some of those wide-open shots or actually tried to draw a couple of fouls, that would have been a different game. FSU's offense still needs some work, but I'm extremely impressed with their D. Now, the real test is whether they can keep their focus for the rest of the ACC schedule, or whether the last 3 games will be their high-water mark.

If you thinkt hat's bad then you haven't watched Kentucky this season. It's become this team's trademark to get large leads and blow them. So very frustrating. Hopefully with the great recruiting clas swe'll have some depth next season. I have no idea how they are going to give a scholarship to all of them (the recruits) though.

This year's team seems proud of the fact they blow these leads and still hang on to win, while last year they would have lost them. At least that's what I read and hear on the local news. We'll see. I think they can win it all, but they need to pull it together just a bot more by March.
