Lean real close to your computer and listen up: Rodney Hood got fouled and the foul wasn't called. I don't know if he could make the foul shots to win the game or tie the game or what, but he didn't have a chance to try. The referees were incompetent and inept...and any other word you want to insert...

Of course I hope Jabari stays. As a former college professor, I still have the outdated belief that a person goes to college to get a degree...and, if playing a sport is part of that experience, it's not the ultimate goal. Don't you get tired of hearing "one and done" before a person even steps on t...

Five of the classic "comebacks" from years past...as well as a delightful recent last-second shot!

Pull for a team that doesn't exist for me? Why should I do that?

Such a FINE upstanding citizen of Durham......

Correction, please! Ima and August West are in Section 14...the odd side of 14. How do I know this? I sit "below" August West and next to my husband who sits next to Ima.

Can't have you moving these folks to Section 15...no way...never....not a chance!!!!

I agree. I wish him all the best this year. When the report on Kyrie is that he's out "indefinitely," does that mean "out" like Carlos Boozer was with his broken foot? I'll bet Kyrie's back by the first of the year! By the way, the Zeller/tarhole game is covered in today's online Charlotte Observer ...

Well, perhaps the Spartans have discovered that trash talking without making more points than Duke ain't gonna win de game!!! Perhaps someone should tell them how much the refs liked them...hence, you can slide across the floor with your legs in the air and the ball in your hand and NOT get called f...

Harrison Barnes? Oh, yes....the jerk who did the telephone bit when he announced he was choosing Crappy Hell in which to lodge his "talents." So...here's the question: Where is he NOW?

About the twins' leaving: Let me get out my lace handkerchief, wrap it around my finger and dab at my tears.

What wonderful news! Greg's career will be fun to watch!

My standard reply to such idiotic comments from a fan of the faded blue is this: At Duke we believe in QUALITY instead of QUANTITY. And I make that comparison based on the mug shots from the Charlotte-Mecklenburg police blotter which shows the tee shirts of those arrested. Around "these parts," we g...

NBA DRAFT: THURSDAY, 7 p.m., ESPN Zoubek has NBA dream in his sights By Robbi Pickeral and Ken Tysiac robbi.pickeral@newsobserver.com and ktysiac@charlotteobserver.com Posted: Tuesday, Jun. 22, 2010 Duke's Brian Zoubek, at 7-foot-1 and 260 pounds, could be a second-round draft pick Thursday. TED RIC...

Well? What happened? Did they visit? All this happened in May while I was on vacation and away from my computer. Don't leave me hanging when there may be a substitute for "my" Zoubek.

One of the commenters suggested they learn to play basketball instead of tweeting. Wonder if that will get tweeted?

Reggie seems to have scooted in and out before the remarks were made. I found that to be strange. I thought he would have played a more visible role.

From the transcript of the President'ts speech:

I also want to congratulate the assistant coaches –-
Chris Collins, Nate James, and Steve Wojciechowski –- I’ll
just call him “Wojo” like everybody else –- all of whom
were once captains on Coach K’s teams, as well.

Nope...I was wrong...he came from St. John's.....and I also spelled his name incorrectly! Roshown McLeod (born November 17, 1975 in Jersey City, New Jersey) is a retired American professional basketball player who was selected by the Atlanta Hawks in the 1st round (20th overall) of the 1998 NBA Draf...
