January 31, 200719 yr Who wouldn't go to Duke with the success of names like Christian Laettner, Bobby Hurley, William Avery, Trajan Langdon, Chris Duhon, Dahntay Jones, Roshawn McCloud, Shav Randolph and Jay Williams? Or Corey Maggette, or Elton Brand, or Grant Hill, or Shane Battier, or Mike Dunleavy, or Carlos Boozer That's kind of low about Jason Williams, he made a stupid choice, but would've been a tremendous pro, and everyone knew that.
January 31, 200719 yr Duke fan and UK fan.:lol: :lol: We need another opinion. Well, we'll add a UL fan's opinion... I don't like Duke so you can't say Im biased, but I didn't see anything that indicated to me that Duke wasn't playing well. Just because folks think a team should win by more than they do, doesn't mean they played bad. JMO.

January 31, 200719 yr I believe what Hammertime is trying to say is that, IHO, Duke didn't play a good ballgame. RP is stating that they did, but, IHO, they always do. Can't argue with that.

January 31, 200719 yr ^ Duke actually played very well, and the crowd was supremely in it...but with a lot of the high school kids today....Duke -vs- UK in a recruiting battle...Duke would win Who is the last recruit UK beat out Duke for???
January 31, 200719 yr ^ No they do not....have you all read any of my Duke posts this yera. Thats why you should use quotes.

January 31, 200719 yr Thats why you should use quotes. Yeah. People are too quick today......CR, sorry. And I don't know who the last guy is...
January 31, 200719 yr Yeah. People are too quick today......CR, sorry. And I don't know who the last guy is... Exactly. UK hasn't beaten Duke out for a recruit in quite sometime.

They do have a lot of NBA flops though.
January 31, 200719 yr He had a good time. After visitng a school the recruit almost always says these kind of things. If he goes to Duke, he goes to Duke, but saying this is bad news for UK fans is just another attempt at one of the 18% trying to stir the pot....
January 31, 200719 yr Average pro. Maybe, but as a rookie in only 26.1 MPG, he averaged 9.5 ppg, 4.7 apg, and 2.6 rpg....that's pretty good considering that was barely a half of play.
