last year versus VT to allow the half court buzzer beater

now this game to allow Pube Head's buzzer beater

1/25/2007 9:03:47 PM

I didn't see it but didn't they take away like 4 seconds or so in the VT game earlier this year for no reason as well when VT had the ball??

1/25/2007 9:04:33 PM

yes

1/25/2007 9:05:14 PM

yea, they gave them WAYYYYY too much time, there was no way in HELL there was 4.4 left

1/25/2007 9:05:24 PM

yes

1/25/2007 9:05:31 PM

maybe because the clock kept running and ran out after the play

1/25/2007 9:05:37 PM

K threatens the refs with his massive incisors

1/25/2007 9:05:54 PM

~3.8 seconds is what it should have been.

1/25/2007 9:05:57 PM

Tonight was seriously some bullshit.

McRoberts fucked up and it SHOULD have went to Overtime.

1/25/2007 9:06:03 PM

and conveniently Pubey made the shot at 0.2 seconds


that extra 1.2 seconds made all the difference

1/25/2007 9:06:08 PM

Duke's players are too good to celebrate like they did.

1/25/2007 9:06:57 PM

I understood putting more time on the clock but not back up to 4+ seconds.

It made me physically ill for a second to watch that shit.

It's getting ridiculous.

1/25/2007 9:06:58 PM

^^THEY WERE EXCITED

1/25/2007 9:08:19 PM

Haha a Carolina fan bitching about a team getting calls. I think that deserves a major

First it was Dean Smith, now its Coach K, Ive always said the longest tenured coach gets the calls.

1/25/2007 9:08:27 PM

5.0 seconds left when clemson got the layup to make it 66-63

Then the clemson guy catches McRoberts inbound and shoots it immediately. Clock starts when he touches it and stops when the ball goes thru the net.

4.4 seconds left when Duke inbounds. HAD to take more than 0.6 seconds for him to catch it, square up, shoot and the ball to travel 20 feet.

should have been around 3.0-3.5 seconds for the last play.

1/25/2007 9:08:33 PM

the fucking clock didnt start until the ball was halfway through the basket

i would say they should have put 2.5 seconds on the clock AT MOST

fucking ridiculous

fuck duke

I hope Coach K takes the Duke players aside. He had no problems telling VT players that aren't even his own 'they were too good to celebrate like that.'

1/25/2007 9:10:03 PM

how can they say that play only lasted 0.6 seconds? that is some bullshit.

1/25/2007 9:10:17 PM

precisely what i'm screamin'


catch ball at feet. control ball. jump. cock ball into shooting form. release. ball travels 20+ feet. ball goes completely through the hoop


that has to take more than 0.6 seconds


admit it Duke fuckers. you are some fucking motherfuckers

1/25/2007 9:11:09 PM

Duke fans don't have to admit shit. As far as their concerned, that is how it was supposed to be. Cause they're Duke, you know.

1/25/2007 9:12:12 PM

It's Duke.

It's Cameron.

It's K.

Most importantly, it's Clemson on the other sideline.

That's just the way it is.

End of story.

1/25/2007 9:12:47 PM

I was thinking the same thing. There's 5 seconds left, the clemson guy actually stole it, and took the time to square up real quick. it's not like it touched his fingertips for like a tenth of a second. He actually caught it, and held it long enough to make a good shot. On top of that the ball had to actually travel to the basket. When they said something about maybe adding time, I thought at the most they'd bump it to like 2.5, but 4.4 is complete bullshit.

1/25/2007 9:13:04 PM

I havent seen a homo dog pile like that since unc won the NC.

1/25/2007 9:14:45 PM

AND.....


to top it all off. i just watched the replay on Comcast and the clock didn't start for a split second after dude stole the ball. it didn't really start until the ball was being released.

as much time as they took to review the video, you would think they'd catch that little nugget

1/25/2007 9:15:01 PM

someone post a photo.......since they wouldnt talk about it or show replays on ESPN.

1/25/2007 9:16:06 PM

^^ from watching it live on espn and then seeing the replays, they didnt start the clock until the ball was going in the hoop

1/25/2007 9:18:52 PM

dude on prick pride says he's been replaying his DVR footbage and it's confirmed that Clempson got royally jobbed

1/25/2007 9:19:08 PM

video coming

1/25/2007 9:20:13 PM

I have proof

Just rewound the bitch on my DVR


There's 5.0 after the layup


THEY DONT START THE CLOCK until the Clemson 3 is about 2 feet from going in.


When the ball exits the bottom of the net, there's 4.7 seconds left.

So they basically didnt take anytime time off while the guy stole the pass, stepped up and shot it.

I am not at all a Duke hater or fan, I'm indifferent to thier success.

But I still hate to see a game end on bullshit like this.

1/25/2007 9:20:30 PM

Would it be possible to get non acc refs for all duke and unc games in the conference? That is the only way the other teams can get a fair shake.

Fuck Duke and Fuck UNC. They don't need the extra help. Fuck the NCAA for "whats good for college basketball".

1/25/2007 9:46:44 PM

i bet this is the first time in the history of athletics that such a grievous error has been made

you guys should all write letters to your congressman

i would also like to see non sec refs for all football games involving alabama

^^^Actually, the point is that this is not the first time it's happened. It's happened over and over again for years and years and years.

(It does make a win over Duke/UNC-CH that much sweeter though.)

he said that because they were at home.

I'd hope he'd have just as much problem if that game was at clemson and duke acted the way they did. celebrating at home is a lot different than running all over someone elses court.

1/25/2007 10:03:41 PM

OMG, Duke is better than us and won a game, lets all talk shit about how its a conspiracy. JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP already.

1/25/2007 10:04:10 PM

1/25/2007 10:04:33 PM

just saying

1/25/2007 10:05:13 PM

the ref's just fucked up ... they just looked at the time on the clock when the basket was made. and they didnt look at when the clock stopped. obviously they should have but I dont think it's some big duke and unc conspiracy that made the miss that. they just fucked up

1/25/2007 10:05:26 PM

^^^^ wow shut up, this is just obvious

I disagree. He was implying that they should act like they've been there before. Honestly, I'm glad Duke reacted like that. Shows they aren't like the Yankees and all business. I just see the hypocrisy in Coach K's actions/words.

----

That picture is garbage. It means nothing because the clock didn't start until the ball was above the rim.

----

Regardless, as I've said all year, to win in Cameron (or Dean Dome) you need to score 10 more points than the opposition... that's the way it is...

1/25/2007 10:07:55 PM

I disagree he was implying that it's disrespectful to upstage people on their court. and I agree

1/25/2007 10:08:48 PM

^^^^^^^Watch the video, fuckface.

And, no, it's not a conspiracy. It's a reality of ACC basketball, and it gets really old.

I don't think anybody is consciously making certain calls. The calls are still made though.

heh that's the real problem, the only thing i can imagine is that


unless the referee's carry stop watches

what's the fair way to decide how much time elapsed during the time when the clock should ahve started and when it actually did ?

honestly I'm asking
