K-Rat Being Selfish Causes Grayson "Trip" Allen To Get Hurt

[Steat]

I don't take any of this stuff too seriously. And you are exactly right, the ribbing goes both ways. All I meant was that the 124 page thread was more about making fun of posters than the UNC team - at least that's been my perception.

As I said, you have not been around that long. Go to your profile on the Duke site and you will see a "search field". Type in "Coach Roy Willams" or something similar. You will come across the most brutal thread attacking a basketball coach in the history of mankind. In fact, it is so brutal you will probably come back over here and apologize. Roy was hung in effigy at least 25 times. Also, you will find one on Meeks also. You Duke fans are mean...

 

[Archer2]

Yep, they talk about K being caricatured as a rat or a devil going too far, but there were some photoshopped pictures of Dean and Roy that would never have been allowed here. They possess no moral high ground over there. Absolutely none.

 

[DSouthr]

Theres nothing to backpedal about. The whole board can call me on it if they want, I dont care.The fact that this petty childish thread exists still and mine is the one being called out tells me Im not dealing with stellar intelligence here. And the fact that you of all people is now piling on( probably feeling brave) informs me that Im probably on the right side of this "argument". Ive already spanked you a few times, Id give up while your still behind.

LOL

One thing I will give Mr. Butt; he certainly knows how to stir a pot-he must be an excellent chef!

There are reasons I never go to rival sites. I don't want to see the UNC bashing and I'm afraid I will lose respect for some UNC fans. Plus, I'm jealous peeps have that much free time!

BTW: puke still sux and ratty is selfish enough to risk injuring one of his best to protect his winning margin!
But I guess you have to leave them in since you only have 4.5 healthy players!

 

[Steat]

I will point out every stupid thing that the selfish rat does in this forum. Putting an injured player (your best player at that) back in game with a 35 point lead in the second half is one of the most selfish moves a coach can make. The LOM is a role model?

The LOM is known for keeping his starters in the game loooong after the game has been decided. They've been very lucky not to have lost a lot more players to injury over the years than they have. He just loves to run those scores up. To his credit, he did go ballsy and play four subs double digit minutes, albeit against lowly App State. Of course, we know their PT is going to be very minimal as soon as the three 9-monthers return.

 

[Steat]

Another Grayson Allen's flop in last night's game against Michigan State.




Another one....The LOM loves this stuff...

 

[BOOGIEMAN1914]

sooooooo...the elbow didnt hit him in the face?? and he still stayed up and he stayed up on the other play...whats the problem?

 

[Archer2]

Ever heard the parable of the boy who cried wolf, Boogie. Allen's reputation for acting like he's been shot with a .357 magnum on the slightest contact precedes him. Everyone in the country, with the exception of dook fans, sees this.

 

[Steat]

Barely touched him and it was not in the face. The fact that they didn't even stop play to consider a flagrant foul should tell you something. Trip will be suspended by the ACC before the season is over for his antics. The LOM is a disgrace.

There were several head snaps and two flops early in the game also, the second one MSU was called for. We don't need videos to point out that the kid flops and jerks his head back at the slightest gust of wind. Twitter has plenty of unbiased basketball fans who readily point it out.

Type in "Grason Allen flop" and then try to tell me that all of those people are just UNC fans or Duke bashers. Try to be objective here. Good college player but probably flops more than anyone in recent memory.

 

[Steat]

Someone did a good job listing most of Trip's accolades.

Didn't K-Rat comment on Tyler Hansbrough being in the game in the later stages with UNC up after that HendoThug assault and faulting Roy for keeping him on the floor . . ?

Yes, such a hypocrite, and we were only up 10 or 12 at the time.

He did. But Rat had refused to pull his starters as is the norm when you have "given up". Roy stated he was not pulling his starters with the game that close until K pulled his.

And to this day I am 100% convinced Kay sent Henderthug into the game with orders to do damage to Hansbrough. I put NOTHING past that sociopath.

 

[TPFKAPFS]

That play and the subsequent defense drained the rest of my respect for ratty. I think he has sold his soul in order to cement his legacy. I hope he never retires because basketball coach is 100% of his identity!

 

[heelmanwilm]

K has a diff philosophy than coach williams. Hes already keeping to a 7 man rotation and working them long after games are decided. This is the norm for them. Will it payoff with game experience or will they tire?

How Ironic that you capitalized "K" and left "coach williams" uncaptialized. Conspiracy theorists would have a hay day with that.

No offense, but if you believe K sent in Henderson purely to knock Hansbrough out of the game you're crazy. There is no evidence to support that.

I don't care for K any more than the rest of you but he's not a sociopath. I don't think he's so evil that he would deliberately instruct one his players to do that.

I do not agree with you. No way to prove it short of Henderthug "getting religion" and coming clean so moot point anyway.

You also have no way to prove your assertion. You believe something that is entirely baseless.

I was stating above that there is no way to prove my assertion. Doesn't mean it isn't true though. It may not be true. I believe that it is, and that Ratty's behavior in many other instances supports that possibility. You disagree, That's fine.

You're hatred of a rival basketball team is leading you to irrational conclusions.

Like you, I was furious when I saw Henderson hammer down on our best player. But I don't believe it was on K's orders.

We just disagree, that's all. Your view that my conclusions are irrational are again, only your opinion.

The trajectory of his arm coming down is all the proof I need. No way was that an attempt to block a shot. You believe what you want, there's zero chance of changing my mind.

You're entitled to your opinion, as is he. Without definitive proof either way, further argument is futile. If it's any consolation, I'm sure the guys on DI concur with you.

Yep, Gerald was the victim according to K.

I guess in order for me to lose respect for the rat, I would have to actually HAVE some respect for him. I can't recall ever having respect for the prick. When he first came to dook, I thought he was a whiny bitch who bordered on dirty play. Now I KNOW he is a whiny bitch who DOES promote dirty play

 

[TheGLOV]

Glov, where in the hell have you been pal! The guys over on Premium ask about you all the time. Come join us! You were the most vocal poster ever about Roy getting the bigs. Man, we miss you over on Premium.

I morphed into an 'international man of mystery" and must keep a {required} low profile.

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

I heard that you just defeated a evil mad scientist that was going to destroy the world with his "laser" unless we payed 1 MILLION DOLLARS !!! LOL

 

[Archer2]

And that exemplifies why I have never liked the LOM. My mom liked UNC, my dad liked d00k. I pulled for both teams, becoming very upset when d00k lost to UK in the '78 finals. But from the day the LOM stepped on campus, he rubbed me the wrong way because he was so much like his mentor Bobby Knight, ergo why I nicknamed him Knight Lite years later. I told my dad I would never pull for d00k basketball as long as the LOM was their coach, and I haven't. And while I appreciate what he said about Dean late in Dean's life, I still don't like the man. Like Knight, I can appreciate his accomplishments without liking the man very much. An example of why I dislike the LOM.

The same can be said of Duke's Mike Krzyzewski. When Krzyzewski arrived at Duke in 1981 he vowed that he would think of Smith merely as a good coach he was trying to compete with. In 1984, after losing a close game to North Carolina, Krzyzewski angrily said that there was a double standard among ACC officials: one for Smith and one for everyone else. Smith was infuriated by the comment, so much so that to this day he and Krzyzewski have -- at best -- a cool relationship.

Each says he respects the other. And that is it. A couple of years ago, asked about the cool relationship, Krzyzewski said, "I like Dean. But if you want to know if we sit around and smoke cigarettes together (Smith is a two-pack-a-day man), no, we don't do that."
