A Duke Fan's Lament: Hail To The Heels

Posted Apr 7, 2009
At some point last night while "Let it" Wayne Ellington was dropping shots like he was playing "pop-a-shot", and Ed Davis was pulling down rebounds faster than Hubert Davis can deflect a Coach Knight taunt, I decided to sit back and enjoy the Tar Heels winning their fifth title. When I looked at the in-game tally sheet, and Michigan State had more fouls (seven) and turnovers (seven) than points (five), I knew it was futile—well not as futile as Duke-UNLV circa 1990.
