I'm getting a little tired of all the negative posts about a team that to me, is surpassing most of my preseason expectations. Yes the losses may be hard to swallow but most of them are close winnable games that experienced players would be able to handle.
So here's my game. Many are Marty P. fans and I'd have to admit that though I love his hustle and enthusiasm I see him as a liability on the floor.
In the St. John's game, he made a spin-a-round behind the back pass that had Coach K's blood pressure skyrocket and you could see him really give it to him.
Did he learn his lesson?? In last night's game, Marty drove to the basket, got caught in traffic and tried another spin pass to the wing. Ball went out of bounds, play looked un-Duke like and luckily for him, a phantom foul appeared to be called. I couldh't believe he tried the same similar play again.
So fill in the rest of the sentence. As Marty went back to the bench. What did coach say???? "Marty if you do that one more time..........". I don't have an answer but like to hear some of your thoughts.
