It hasn't been officiated that horribly to be honest. The intentional foul call was HORRENDOUS though. Washington of VT got an offensive board, went up with it, and got the ball caught on Kyle Singler's chest. No call, and there shouldn't have been a call, but the fans go nuts because the whistle wasn't blown.
Washington turns to run down court after making a motion at the official and gets his feet tangled with Singler. Singler hits the deck because his feet were tripped up, and they hit Washington with an intentional foul.
Just awful. |

True that sounds awful....
What I meant is if the game is anything like close the refs will close it out for Dook against a team the caliber of VT. Always have, always will.....
This game doesn't appear to be that close so they've called it more "normally" 
I love conspiracy theories  |

You guys are flat obsessed...
Watch any basketball game in the country and you can pick out calls like that... Just so happens Duke games are on a lot, so I guess that's why everyone gets so much on them...
How about giving Duke credit for playing another stellar game this year? There's really only been one game that they've won that was in doubt in the final 3+ minutes of the game., and in that one, after the Singler 3 against FSU, it went on to be a double-digit win...

Dook Sucks...
j/k...I am with ya on the charge calls, they need a little arc like the nba or they will never get it right...It will also eliminate a lot of times when guys try and take charges which would only be better for the game...
I hate it when guys are under the hole and they get a charge call or guys slide under them when they are in the air...
Your feet must be set before the guy takes off... |

Don't let Washington get a reprieve for his actions last night...
1) He tried to bait our guys into altercations by trying walk into or through our players/huddles after whistles. He was throwing shoulders all game after dead balls.
2) He got an intentional foul by tripping Singler behind the play. I agree I don't think the foul was intentional though. He drove in and flopped and didn't get the call. He gets [censored]ed, screams, and throws his arms out at the ref. His foot catches Singler's, and the ref calls an intentional, probably b/c he was just tired of Washington's b/s and the trip, whether intentional or not, only happened b/c of Washington's temper tantrum.
3) He intentionally undercut Nelson after Nelson had been fouled by another Hokie.
4) He was involved in very late, brief altercation with Nelson, resulting in Nelson fouling out with a Technical (DeMarcus should have known better than to be baited though).

That's the Duke specialty right there. Name a better team at sliding directly under the hoop to take a charge as the player is finishing the play and already coming down?
Plus, there reputation for taking charges gives them a lot of calls when they aren't in position. I don't think anyone can argue that. Watch any of their games and they get BS charges all the time.
But yes, they are a very good team, and I can't think of many guys I'd rather have than Gerald Henderson. |
