That would just be doubling down on an event we should already not be playing in. We'd be trading a locked in game against Butler or ND potentially for a game against Ball State or IUPUI? No thanks!

Agree! Need to just remove the event. It sucks

So Coach K looks like a bag of flaming dog turds with the whole tripping spree, right? I mean, grow a pair. Tough enough to threaten refs, but scared to punish your little star boy?

I loved how after how he tripped the kid, CLEARLY! Grayson looks at his hands as if he was trying to say, he was grabbing my hands. That's why i did it! I mean really?? IF the kid had a pro career, he can kiss it goodbye! There'd be no way I would risk drafting that brat! Also, I agree with JayWill about his thoughts on the 2nd half. There is absolutely NO WAY, that he should've even saw the floor in the 2nd half. idc if it meant losing to Elon! Coach K HAS TO send that message now. 

Lastly, Seth was right about the ACC. Too scared to touch Duke but now they kind of in a position Coach K is in. They kinda have to step in and do something now

I truly believe that Allen can't comprehend what there is about him that snaps and causes him to do this. There is no rational/competitive advantage in this happening repeatedly. 

That having been said, action = appropriate reaction, and the young man oughta be suspended.

Well at least Coach K can berate players in the handshake line about respecting the game using his level of righteousness and his players are above that.

Yep, having said that. I'm afraid that there is a really good chance the ACC doesn't do it. We know Coach K isn't going to. I mean with his statement and all

Yeah about that, I don't think North Dakota did anything wrong here. I mean not 5 seconds prior to that, didn't Baer steal the ball from them? Correct me if I'm wrong

So I'm 5 rows behind Duke bench, Grayson blatantly trips opposing guard, screams F--- toward bench & throws a full blown temper tantrum when T is called. Very nice for all the families in attendance.

Allen suspended indefinitely.

@JonRothstein: BREAKING: Duke has suspended Grayson Allen indefinitely, per release.

Well...the North Dakota player DID violate the norms/decorum of the game. Baer on Iowa rebounded a miss with 5 seconds left and Iowa up 11. Baer stood slack to let the clock run out. The North Dakota player wrestled the ball out of Baer's hands and tried to shoot it back in.

Even my fifth grader knows how this stuff works; his rec league team was up 15 last week and he rebounded with 15 seconds left. Instead of playing through, he dribbled just past the midcourt line and stopped cold. Handed the ball to the ref at midcourt as the clock ran out. (My kid watches a lot of college basketball, and thanks to IUBB scheduling, has seen the "end of game cupcake shuffle" many times! lol).

So possibly as much as the first 5 minutes of their next game?
