"I think your mired in the past as usual. Tech doesn't have the talent this year to execute the offense and defend as in the last 2 years."

gee, how do you esplain them being down only 4 at half??


this is exactly the kind of game i was expecting...and concerned about.

[weezie]

Lord have mercy. WHAT in the H*** kind of fouls are these refs calling?!

[grossbus]

regardless of the fouls being called (or not), we better starting making our foul shots.

[Karl Beem]

Simply horrendous officiating.

[grossbus]

these officials are nutz

[dukegirlinsc]

This game is F*****G ridiculous.
Hockey? Football? UFC?

And the VT fans are being classy, as always.

[Cali-Duke]

chanting bs when singler was tripped up is unnecessary

how classy

[Channing]

why? it was a BS intentional foul call. It was a foul, but not an intentional.

Can anyone tell me why these V-Tech fans hate Paulus so much? What the hell did Greg do to them?

BTW, they are complete punks.

He probably didn't do anything in particular...gotta have someone to pick on.

He shoved Washington early on after Washington shoved him.

I love that Paulus, perceived by many to be slow and soft, refuses to put up with people's BS. He's tougher than hell.

He totally is...

He may makes some mistakes, and has a temper at times...but he's one of the toughest Duke players I've seen in a while. LOVE IT. 5'8" or 7'8", he's not backin down.

[freedevil]

Paulus' execution of the spread offense is so much better tonight than I've ever seen.

[grossbus]

one of the very few times i have been in agreement with an early stall ball. the way this game is being called, i think it is the right move. we gotta hit foul shots, though.

[bloodevil]

We refuse to be Punk'd! Nothing like last year. I love it!

[Karl Beem]

Keep booing Paulus, twits.

Because basketball is a game of two halves.

I have to agree on a number of accounts here. First off, yelling BS, just shows how much class Tech doesn't have, and why Duke fans are ranked some of the best in the country. We are mopping the floor with Tech at the moment, so they can yell it all they want. As for Paulus, all I can say is, it is about time. Finally he is really starting to come out and come into his own. He has played one hell of a game tonight.

[dukegirlinsc]

I can't even tell if Duke has played well or not. For the most part I'm satisfied and feel, aside from free throws, everything went smoothly. (At least strategy-wise...) It's hard to analyze such a ticky-tacky called game...with such...CHAOS.
