OT: Duke lost to LSU in Sweet 16!

JJ Reddick is the Manning of basketball

Re: Duke lost to LSU in Sweet 16!

I picked UConn to win it, but had Duke in the title game.

I thought they were too deep to get beat in the Sweet freakin' 16, but boy was I wrong. And everyone I know told me to pick LSU.

F Kansas and F Duke.

Duke is about 2-deep. Not at every position. They're just 2-deep. And those 2 aren't even that good.

Yup, outside of their "All-American" seniors, who are both good players but neither could be considered great, there's not much else to them. Coach K did a piss poor job of developing his youngsters. And after watching Tyrus Thomas it should be the Nets top priority to find a way to move up the draft to get this kid. He's a freak of nature

tru tru, never thought of it like that

Re: Duke lost to LSU in Sweet 16!

This was a really physical game, with lots of contact not called by the refs. And LSU just plain looked more comfortable with all the banging, holding and so on than Duke did. Especially at the end. Also, Davis is not only huge, but has the knack for rebounds that Charles Barkley used to talk about.

Redick stunk up the place. He was like 3 of 17 shooting. Tyrus Thomas was eating Blue Devils for dinner. That just screwed up countless of brackets throughout the nation including mine. I'm so pissed right now. I picked them to win. Final Score: 62-54.

I just saw the highlights and man Tyrus looks like an absolute beast. I'd die to have him on the Nets next year...he seems to play both sides of the court with fearless intensity!

Re: Duke lost to LSU in Sweet 16!

Tyrus is the REAL deal, believe it! Glen Davis is also very nice. Man today's NCAA games were crazy. Did anyone peep the Texas-WV game

Ya crazy finish wasn't it? I thought it was going to overtime and then bam!

Re: Duke lost to LSU in Sweet 16!

Draft Glen Davis!!!

Re: Duke lost to LSU in Sweet 16!

Go NeTs

Re: Duke lost to LSU in Sweet 16!

anyone that watches NCAA ball and doesnt like to Duke media bias [espn esp] knew Duke couldnt play an athletic team with big bodies. Kinda like how Michigan St. beat them last year right? C'mon, haha, Melchionne/Paulus/Dockery are gonna play against Tyrus Thomas and both Mitchells? Terrible Matchups.

Re: Duke lost to LSU in Sweet 16!

Duke is a 2 man team and those 2 players are gonne be role players in the NBA. Redick is no Jeff Hornacek, Morrison will do better than Redick. I'm glad Duke lost, someone else needs to be in the spotlight. Go Memphis, really fun team to watch.

Your tears taste so good JJ. Yummm, the tears of unfathomable sadness!
