It is probably my age, but I don't believe we should slam 19-22 year olds who wear the Duke uniform. Yes, we can point out bad games or areas of needed improvement. We can argue about playing time but it seems to me that the neverending criticism of certain players is not necessary. In the past, I felt that the players or their families could visit this site and not be offended. I don't think that is case for certain players on this year's team.
Quoted for truth.
What perplexes me the most is the degree of ire Paulus attracts from our own fans. Few other Duke players have attracted the level of scrutiny he does, for whatever reason, and most of the ones I can think of go in "underachieving big man" category. Jeff Capel is probably the last guard I can think of who got something like the Paulus treatment. I suppose Duhon possibly, but I don't think so.
