    But if that's the only blemish on the night I'll take it 11 times out of 10.

    So... this team's freshman year, we went to Virginia, and lost a game in overtime. In that game, Sean Singletary hit a game winning shot that was essentially identical to the shot that Hayward took tonight. He drove to the right side of the lane, and took a fadeaway 12-footer over the extended arm of Josh McRoberts. Tonight, Hayward drove to the right side of the lane and took a fadeaway 12-footer over the extended arm of Brian Zoubek. Singletary made his shot; Hayward missed his. Zoubs went down to the other end and took care of business, and this team came full circle, ending up with national title #4 in an excellently played basketball game over a high quality opponent. All I have to say is, GO DUKE!!!!!!!!!!

    Number 4!

    Character and heart. I love these guys for all they have done. They define TEAM. Valiant effort by Butler but perhaps the real cinderella story should be how this "alarmingly unathletic" team just won the National Champiosnship!

    In the end, no matter what they were going to have to hit a 3. So who cares if we lead by 1 vs 2.
    It worked out in the end, but I disagree with K here. I would much rather play 5 more minutes than leave the game in the hands of a half-court heave.

    I LOVE THIS TEAM!!!!!

    Way to go guys! That's 4 for K and Duke now. Wonderful!!

    This team gave more, improved more, won more then we had any right to expect.

    Kudos particularly to big Z. He is the reason this team made the great leap forward in late January.

    Kudos also to Kyle. He also put it together after a tough early season stretch.

    Contrats to Jon. He played wonderfully. He's just a winner.

    Happy happy for Lance. He gave this team tough D, hustle and points in the second half.

    Nolan, now you have a memory to go with your dad's trip to Indianapolis.

    On a personal note, I'm really glad I got to watch this game with cousin Joe who provided me with about double my normal ration of beers to mellow me out as we watched the game. Otherwise I wouldn't have lasted to the end.

    As to Zoub's missed FT at the end. I'm fine with that strategy.

    Finally, Butler should be proud. This was a true championship game and both teams are winners.

    I think we got several cheap shots tonight, and a lot of them all year. But, since we are Duke and have all these great advantages (??) we are expected to suck it up and take the hits. Which, of course, we do. Butler gave us their best shot (and it was a good one) and we still won. This is the way Duke legends are made.
    In a way, I wish that JJ could have been a part of this team. However, I wonder how well he would have fit it. At Duke he was pretty much a one-dimensional player (but superb in that dimension). In the NBA, he has developed his body and his game, and is much more well-rounded.

    Come back Kyle!

    We can repeat. With Kyle, Nolan, MPs, Kyrie, Seth, Andre, and the rest of the crew, we can do it again.

    Sure will miss Jon, Brian and Lance though. Way to go out guys. Thanks for all the memories.

    How many half-court heaves have you ever seen go in?

    One amazing stat...

    ...Zoubs played 31 minutes...I think that's the most he's ever played in a game...in a National Championship game...in his senior year...


    ...an awesome little fact from an awesome win...

    So strange...

    that this team, that we've watched all year, and talked about on DBR, and micro-analyzed their shortcomings is now the national champion. It's like we're letting others into our story. Weird - but awesome!

    Sure, but that's all the more reason to make the free throw. It's a half court heave for Butler regardless of what we do at the line. Between a half court heave to tie, and the same shot to win, I'd rather they be shooting to tie the game. We didn't give them any more difficult of a shot by Zoubek missing that free throw.
