Paulus did a lot more wrong then that. He threw away several passes late in the game. That entire team let down JJ. Redick was the only player of the game and Duke playing stupid was G-Towns player of the game. That was very dissapointing.
Yeah, well I turned on the game late. So that was all that I saw. I turned it on and there was 1:02 left.
oh well it didnt seem so bad then.. Duke was really really struggling they basicly treated JJ like Jordan where he got the ball every time and it was either he scored or the game was over and he kept them in it for a while.. i think at one point in the second half he had 70% of the teams points for the game..
JJ Redick now holds the record for most 3 pointers in NCAA History, with 5 regular season games left and 2 tournaments, hes going to put a nice padding on that number. Also he is about 29 points behing Johnny Dockins for all time point leader at Duke and I think about another 20 for all time point leader for the ACC. He also still leads in all time NCAA free throw %. Bottom line is the guy is amazing. He went over 30 for I think the 5th game in a row tonight.
J.J. broke Curtis Staples' ACC and NCAA record for career three-pointers made during tonight's game against Wake Forest. Staples, who was in attendance at the game and presented J.J. with the game ball afterward, held the record with 413. J.J. passed him in the first half and finished the game at 416. Huge congratulations to him on a fantastic achievement.
He also broke two more records with tonight's game - his 33 points gave him 12 games on the season with 30+ points and 4 such games in a row. Both of those totals are new Duke records.
The rest of the Record Watch...
* J.J.'s 33 points give him 2,527 for his career. He is now just 29 points behind Johnny Dawkins for the top spot on the Duke list and 60 points behind Dickie Hemric for the all-time ACC lead. He is currently in fourth place on the ACC list.
* He has scored 30+ points 18 times in his career, which ties him with Dick Groat for second all-time at Duke. One more game like that will move him into a tie with Art Heyman for the most ever.
* By crossing the 2500-point plateau, J.J. officially became the 54th player in the NCAA record book for career scoring.
* J.J. was named Player of the Week in the ACC for the fifth time this season and the tenth time in his career. Only Antawn Jamison (12 times) and Tim Duncan (11) won the honor more times in their careers. I'd say that's pretty good company.
I don't know about you all, but I'm just in awe of what we're witnessing. I want this season to go on forever.

Yeah that is pretty funny.
I've seen this one picture where there was this Duke fan who had a sign that said "JJ is Redickulous" then some fan on the other team who was sitting right behind him put "ly gay" on a sign and held it next to it. So it said "JJ is Redickulously gay." 😆 Would have been even funnier if it wasn't Duke though.

syracuse is on a crazy run right now. The big east is totaly falling apart in the tournament. And no team that lost in thier first game of thier confrence tournament has ever won the NCAA championship, so too bad UCONN.
Syracuse is gonna beat Pitt tonight. But Syracuse got lucky about what happened to Villanova. If Ray never injured his eye and went to the hospital, we would have won that game, and then beat Syracuse in the championship. Did you see that though? On the replay you can see Ray's eye popping out of his head. They say he is okay, though, so thats great news.
I predict that UCONN won't make the Final Four.
