March 25, 201610 yr How much time was left in the game when he took the shot? Less than 10 seconds. ... And the shot clock was expiring. I would rather someone do that than go in for a highlight reel dunk.
March 25, 201610 yr Less than 10 seconds. I probably woulda taken the shot clock violation. I also wouldn't have been that bent out of shape about the shot.
March 25, 201610 yr ... And the shot clock was expiring. I would rather someone do that than go in for a highlight reel dunk. I probably woulda taken the shot clock violation. I also wouldn't have been that bent out of shape about the shot. The shot was also from about 30 feet. He obviously shot it because of the shot clock & for no other reason. It wasn't an attempt to show anyone up. I wouldn't have taken an exception with Grayson Allen's response either, but when you factor that in with all of his tripping from this year... I have to tip my hat to Oregon. I had Duke in the Elite Eight, mostly because I thought the Ducks were pretenders. From what I saw of the game, they looked really good. Definitely exceeded my expectations.
March 25, 201610 yr Thoughts on Coach K "lecturing" Dillon Brooks? Coach K lectures Oregon Ducks' Dillon Brooks, Grayson Allen shuns him after Duke Blue Devils' Sweet 16 loss | FOX Sports I am a bit surprised Coach K or Grayson Allen made an issue out of it. The game was over and they had conceded. If it is a competitive nature thing, my comeback is it would bug me if I were an Oregon player to just hand the ball over to the other team.
March 25, 201610 yr Coach K loses horribly. That is the one personality trait he inherited from Bobby Knight. Grayson Allen is in the mold of Laetner, Reddick, Wojo, just something about them makes you not root for them.
March 25, 201610 yr Not a shocker to me. Lecture your own players. Good grief. I had no issue with Coach K saying something to the Oregon player. I don't fault Dillon Brooks for taking the shot (what else was he going to do), nor do I fault the future Hall of Fame coach from shaking the players hand and speak to the player with dignity and respect. Non-issue, in my opinion.
March 25, 201610 yr I guess @GrizzlyAdams is too busy making new photoshop pictures to respond. :lol2:

March 25, 201610 yr Coach K is old school and their conversation after the game was a cordial conversation. Let's not act like he sat him down and scolded him. Coach K said what he had to say, Brooks apologized and life went on. I didn't have a problem with the shot or Grayson Allen's reaction to it. Part of it. Some folks have sportsmanship and some don't. I fall in line with the shoot it crowd but I understand why many many teams take a shot clock violation when in the same spot. Another reason why Postgame handshakes are stupid. Coach K loses horribly. :lol2:

Is that why he goes into the opposing teams locker room after almost every loss to congratulate them?
