[See the full post at: One of these is not like the other (& Cat Barber cleared to play)]followed by the pick that dropped Barber in the open court and was not ruled a foul.
It wasn’t a foul. That thing was set a mile away. That one was on us. Gotta help each other out.
It was ABSOLUTELY NOT A FOUL.
The point wasn’t that it was a foul. The point was that neither was the other one that was called (and for an important 5th foul).
I guess I should’ve made that point more clear in the original post. I will go back and do it.
Yes, the point is that both defenders did EXACTLY the same thing. Neither was perfectly set, both braced their arms for impact. One was called a foul, the other wasn’t. In both cases, to the benefit of the ACC blue team.
There was also, obviously, more of a legitimate basketball purpose to the screen that ND set. Wasn’t a foul, but a total DICK MOVE, from a program one expects such DICK MOVES from. Coach K Klass, everyone.
Ok. My prayer for cat barber was answered so here it goes. Lets pray for a draw on sunday that leads to a deep nc state run. It does not need to be what draw we want just the draw that will lead us on a magical run. Oh yeah and is it too much to ask to give the irish some luck tonight. I have a feeling they are going to need it. So glad cat is healthy and not just from basketball perspective.
Die hard state fan from the crystal coast!
And the reason it was such a dick move is
because his legs were spread further than his
shoulders – could have been called a foulAbu missed the callout, but setting a screen that far up at that point of the game was completely unnecessary.
I am also looking forward to the day Krzyzewski retires, because the new coach won’t have the same intimidation factor with the refs. Duke will suffer a couple of extra losses a year based on that alone.
