Holy Shot!

Did anyone see the end of yesterday's Duke-VaT basketball game? It was quite amazing. (No, I wasn't there, nor was I watching it on tv, but it made the sports highlights on the evening news on one of my local stations.)

Now did you really think that I would miss it?!!!

I thought our win at Maryland a few years ago ( down by 10 with a minute to go) or the famous win over Kentucky ( Grant Hill pass, Laettner shot) were fabo, but this sure was a ranker !

No, not really.

Dukehjsteve, it is with deep regret that I acknowledge that 1992 miracle as a truly great feat (being a UK fan). However, I am also a huge Coach K fan, and was delighted to see the end of that game.

Still, it looks to me like they should be playing much better than they are. I see only a couple of other teams around the country who should be able to keep up with them, them main one being UConn. Good luck to your boys throughout the rest of the season.

Thanks KR. We were indeed quite a bit more than lucky to win, and also could have lost to IU very easily. We are a bit overrated. A lack of depth up front, with a freshman to boot, then a freshman point guard. Even JJ cannot do it all.
