Noop · 04-05-2010, 10:35 PM

Is everyone rooting for Butler because they are media darlings?

panerd · 04-05-2010, 10:35 PM

I need -7, hoping for Butler to make one free throw or to miss, have duke make 2, and then shoot a 3 to tie.

kingfc22 · 04-05-2010, 10:35 PM

Ugh.

BrianD · 04-05-2010, 10:35 PM

I can't believe that is the shot they wanted.

Galaril · 04-05-2010, 10:35 PM

What the fuck was that?

k0ruptr · 04-05-2010, 10:35 PM

great great try. wow. unfortunate, but still some kind of chance

Not to mention that rebound..

Good shot?

kingfc22 · 04-05-2010, 10:36 PM

No timeouts for Butler is huge here.

Swaggs · 04-05-2010, 10:36 PM

Do you miss the second on purpose?

Easy Mac · 04-05-2010, 10:37 PM

Great game by Butler.

Duke scored 61. Looks like you have to break 60 o beat Butler

Galaxy · 04-05-2010, 10:37 PM

I don't get the logic of the shot before that by the Bulldogs.

DaddyTorgo · 04-05-2010, 10:37 PM

bah...i didn't like that last shot selection by butler...i thought they could have got a better look.

that sucks

EagleFan · 04-05-2010, 10:38 PM

That would have been a hell of a finish if it went in!!!

Easy Mac · 04-05-2010, 10:38 PM

And that was afoul on Howard

k0ruptr · 04-05-2010, 10:38 PM

I'm actually not so sure he got it off in time.

Galaril · 04-05-2010, 10:38 PM

So, I will remember this game cuz the refs helped Duke at the end that is all. And a great season by a mid-major.So, On to destroying the tourney with 96 teams.

Really? Duke? Who play the game of basketball the way its suppose to be played, Duke? Duke doesn't even win all the time.

ACC Pride.

BrianD · 04-05-2010, 10:38 PM

I'm bummed at the outcome, but it was very exciting to watch.

No, everyone was rooting for Butler because no one can stand Duke.

Swaggs · 04-05-2010, 10:38 PM

That's a tough way to lose -- I think I'd rather take the beatdown that WVU took than lose such a close one, where you have to think about every missed lay up, free throw, turnover and/or every little foul.

Easy Mac · 04-05-2010, 10:39 PM

When's the last time a Jewish person started for a national champ?

Groundhog · 04-05-2010, 10:39 PM

The single most disappointing point of the game was Zoubek literally throwing Howard to the ground near the end there with no call, and Butler just getting the out of bounds turnover rather than 2 shots.

Mustang · 04-05-2010, 10:39 PM

They keep showing that last shot over and over. Reminds me of the Brady Bunch when they broke the vase with the basketball....

I thought that was actually a pretty good look.

I wish that refs that don't make late calls because they don't want to help "decide" the game would realize that they are, in fact, helping to "decide" the game by not making the call.

mauchow · 04-05-2010, 10:40 PM

singler got nailed by howard at the end. hope he's ok

k0ruptr · 04-05-2010, 10:40 PM

damn, I'm gonna go play mlb 2k10 and calm down. I just wanna punch someone wearing a duke hat right now.

This.

I was concerned with at halftime the game was in the 30s, but given the way it boiled down at the end, Butler was admirable to have a last second shot to possibly win.

Heck of a game, no doubt. But...I too wish Butler's shooters hadn't come up cold there at the very end. Still, one of the best I can remember watching two schools I'd otherwise care very little about and far better than a blowout or something else.

Fun times.

I went on scholarship. My family was middle class, at best. Your statement above says more about you than it does about the average Duke student.

sterlingice · 04-05-2010, 10:41 PM

I would have loved to see that fall at the buzzer. Might have made it the best game of all time, then

SI

The worst is the replay where the ref is just watching the whole thing happen.

Swaggs · 04-05-2010, 10:41 PM

At least Singler got decleated on that last play. Other than him and Zoubek, I didn't mind this Duke team much. Smith, Thomas and Scheyer all seem business-like and talented. Congrats to them.

Hell yeah. As soon as it hit the board and flew at the ring I thought it was in.
