Tyler Hansborough gets TKO'd in final 20 secs

[hanco21]

There is no way Tyler should of been in the game in the final 20 seconds up by 12. No doubt an obvious intentional foul, If I was Henderson I would of done the same thing if he tried to run up the score. I guess Tyler had to make sure his team covered the 10 point spread. Way to go Hendy.

i can't decide whether it was intentional or not

i am leaning towards it was but dunno

UNC had a 11 point lead and a 3 on 1 fast break and the kid pulled it back to run the clock out and Duke fouled anyways with 18 seconds left and down by 11. The game should have ended right there. Or it could've happened moments later if they were able to secure a defensive board instead of letting Tyler grab them.

it was definitely intentional

Tyler went up strong when he got his offensive rebound, should of tried to cleared it (and ended the game) and not take it to the hoop. Meaningless points unless you were betting on the game.

Very good foul considering the situation, and not worthy of a suspension.

UNC already had the game covered, yet Duke continued to foul like the ones who had money on the game and were trying to cash their own +9' or +10.

UNC had an easy 3 on 1 fast break and decided to dribble it out and end the game and Duke had to go foul and extend the game even more. Should we blame that on UNC as well?

Sure why not. Loved the intentional foul though.

Right.

What about Billy Packers comments about trying to sell the public on the fact that wasn't intentional at all, and he was only going after the ball.

Give me a break... I can't believe he could even say that after watching 5 or 6 different replays of that situation during that broadcast.

for someone who bet duke and arizona when they played unc I felt I got my moneys worth

tyler needs to get off the adirol

[onlooker]

This is just another thing that shows the frustration of Duke this year. They are not a elite team anymore.

Im sure Dickie V thinks they should be a #2 seed.

[Illusion]

Im sure Dickie V thinks they should be a #2 seed.

He said in a broadcast last week that they were a play or two away from being a number one seed.

Yeah right.

Someone needs to bust out that picture of Dickie V in the cheerleader outfit.

Um, after watching 5 or 6 replays of that, anyone with two eyes and a functioning brain should come to the conclusion that it wasn't intentional. When Hansborough pump faked, Henderson jumped, and turned away from him as he swatted down. Completely legitimate hard foul, and it's absolutely ridiculous that he was suspended for it.
The foul by the kid last night, #23, from St. Mary's, now that was a cheap shot, and deserving of a suspension. But, because the guy from Santa Clara didn't start bleeding all over the place, nothing will come of it.

I agree it was a hard foul...but not worthy of a suspension. I cant stand Duke but I think it was crap that they didnt call intentional until after looking at the replay several times. I mean should they look at every foul on replay to see how hard it was and then decide what to call. Because poor Tyler got a bloody nose playing a sport is no reason to suspend the kid. Anyways GO TERPS!!
