Came in here to say Wendell Carter is too damn big to be taking charges against point guards. I never understood that ****... jump straight up and contest you’re 6’10 lmao. I understand you had four fouls and if he was that worried about not picking up a fifth shoulda just let him score imo. Good to see Duke take that L tho

 

He barely got to the spot in the first place. He wasn't going to be able to actually contest the shot.

 

So go the riskier route of jumping straight up (easier said than done) instead of simply sliding your feet and maintaining your position. Got it

And it's crunch time in an elimination game w/ the Final 4 on the line. I'm completely fine with him taking that chance of a 5th foul and not giving Newman an easy layup.

 

He was right next to the rim then he jumped outside the cylinder to try to get the charge. He was already next to the rim to protect it lol. He took himself out of position to take the charge

 

I can't wait to see Kevin Huerter and Bruno go pro

 

So you’d much rather one of your best bigs to try to take a charge against a 6’3 guard rather than having him go straight up with his hands up to contest? My theory is that charges are 50/50 calls don’t leave it to college refs to “make the right call”. But it was a split second decision though but I would have like to see him have his hands straight up underneath the basket rather than trying to draw a charge in OT with four fouls. Just my opinion

 

One-and-done is right move for Duke’s Wendell Carter Jr.

One down, 3 to go.

 

zion looks like he slimmed down

 

UConn women beating the hell outta South Carolina right now. Dawn Staley is lucky she got that ring last year without playing Geno

 

Down 20 pounds.

His step dad was with EJ’s father all day fwiw

 

Uconn got that chip on they shoulder from last year. Our girls woulda taxed Uconn last year the way they played miss state

 

ej still duke lean?

 

Heard Coby White out there killin in practice. We gone need it.

 

Still the rumblings but Bryce Drew is trying his best.

He still hasn’t taken 1 official but they’re coming. He won’t take all 5 even though he said he’d like to

 

Zion and RJ look damn near the same height

 

UCLA's Aaron Holiday to leave school year early for NBA draft.

no surprise

 

Hoping he snags that starting PG gig from Seventh.

 

Did Zion have any big dunks in the slam dunk contest ?

 

They were aight.

 

Damn Jeff capel to Pitt...kinda a shocker

 

I hope he kept the receipts from his time at Duke , Coach K owes that bag man 100 favors

 

Interesting. A chance to build the program from the ground up with minimal expectations. Not mad at it.

 

Wonder how thats going to impact future recruits
