um uconn is gonna make the final 4? with who exactly? they lost 5 players in the draft. And im not sure why you think Duke will be really good this year either. They lost Redick (one "d"😉 Sheldon Williams, Sean Dockery, and Lee Melchioni) That leaves them with Josh McRoberts, Greg Paulis, and DeMarcus Nelson starting. Two freshman will likely start also, maybe pocious will.

Now to my biggest problem with your post.

"Tyrus Thomas and glen Davis shut down Sheldon William and red dick by their athletic skills and scoring in the paint"

Sheldon played 39 of the 40 minutes, scored 23 points, had 13 rebounds, and 4 blocks. Shutdown? Sheldon couldnt be stoped by LSU. JJ did have a bad game, but that had little to dow ith thomas or big baby. Thomas had all of 9 points and big baby had 14, while they had solid games, they didnt really dominate, this was really the opposite of the Georgetown game, where JJ had to try to win it alone and got no help especially from his big man who had 2 points, this time Sheldon got little help on the outside. Oh also LSU only out rebounded Duke by 4, and duke was a team that pretty much got out rebounded every game, so LSU didnt really dominate the paint either.

Some real teams to look out for this year are Oklahoma and UNC, the top 2 recruiting classes in the league going there, following up on UNC's top recruiting class last year. (god its hard to complement UNC)

well im just totaly shocked. The #1 High school basketball player in the country just committed to USC for 07

that is surprising he should recommit to a different school, unless he wants to play USC football.

College Basketball can't come soon enough.

Greg Paulus is out indefinitely... this is beyond bad news

Man, I was just watching Highlights of some March Madness games again... and I want it to start NOW!!

It's the best time of the year as far as sports is concerned.

yea im very excited and very nervous. This is the most unsure ive been of a duke team in a very long time. gerald henderson better be all that and a bag of chips.

I like Duke, but I'm hoping there is a local Philly team that's really good this year, but I don't think there is.

All I want to happen is Florida lose in the first round. 😆
And I want another George Mason like run by some team. Maybe a local Philly team. 😛

Go Wake Forest!

why are you a fan of wake? (just curious)

Here we go again,

I only been a CBB fan for like 3 years, but I was a big fan of Chris Paul when he was at Wake, been a fan of theirs ever since.

Plus I hate Duke

So once again....>

GO WAKE!!!

not here we go again.. had you said GO florida or go UCONN i may have expected bandwagon.. but being a fan of Wake theres pretty much no way its for bandwagon reasons. And why hate duke? because they are a conference rival of wake? or you just always hated duke?

Dammit Duke was on yesterday and I had no idea. I wanted to watch Zoubek too.

he didnt really play. He played a lot the first game, very limited the second.

Why do so many people hate Duke?
I can understand some of it from where I live since we are in U of Ill fans, but its Duke. They are a great team and you cant deny Coach K is one of the best coaches basketball coaches ever!

well most people hate them because they are always good, they are a hard matchup, and if your team plays them theres a good chance they will lose. Its sorta similar to the everyone hates the Yankess, only Duke doesnt go out and buy all the best FA's so its not as fair for everyone to hate Duke. I can understand why other ACC teams hate them, and why other big time teams like UCONN, kansas, kentucky, Ill, those types of teams dont like um either. Myself I lived in Durham and was raised on Duke Blue!

Its more of leftover hate, from when Reddick was killing ACC teams and doing that head bobble shit that he always does. I HATED THAT!!!

I hate Duke cuz I mean, they get calls, most of them seem cocky as hell, tht's all anyone talks about, and they are not the best team...

people arnt even talking about duke this year.. hell Vitale didnt even put them in his pre season top 10 and hes their #1 fan.

Florida is defintely repeating, I know there is upsets and all that mess but I havent seen a team this good since.....😕
