I agree with this. I saw a poll concerning the most hated Duke players. Number 1 and 2 were easy since they were Christian and Grayson Allen which I totally agree with. The others were JJ Redick, Shane Battier and Grant Hill. I never had any particular hatred for the last three and really admired Grant Hill.
I actually have a nice Grant Hill story. This was like 2001 or 2002. I was on vacation in Orlando with my family it was late and my dad and I went to get some food (Popeyes). So we are like the only people in there as we are walking out and who walks in but Grant Hill. He was a nice guy gave us an autograph talked with us while he was getting his food.

In the case of Grant Hill he was a good guy in a kind of bad place through little fault of his own. I mean he did choose to go Duke after all.

What I think happened was that Grant was happened to be there when Duke became Duke with their run of 4 final fours in 5 years. Laetner left and Hurley left and Hill was still there, he became the face of Duke basketball and went to a 3rd final four. Duke was doing lots of winning when and people either loved them or hated them good or bad players or people.

Yeah watching this game makes me more irritated at the thought that UConn lost to Seton Hall -Seton Hall really sucks.

That loss will be the one that costs a seed line on tourney selection Sunday.

He pretty much sucks on D and I've never liked his demeanor on the court but he still gives you 17 points and 10 rebounds. He's basically their only offensive threat with a little Zeke Mayo thrown in. I'm not a fan of his but the rest of the team is a disaster, I don't see how that's his fault.

I could write a dissertation on this, but he gets his numbers and absolutely does nothing else. The offense flows terribly, he is the worst defender on the planet, and I'm not sure what his personality is but the day he got to KU the whole team seems to be disjointed.

I'm not there every day, but the dude has done nothing to help that team win. I'm not sure if you watch or just see his numbers but he's not good. I guess you can have the opinion he's not at fault, but I'd assume you've never watched a single second of them play if you truly think that. I happen to disagree, if you can't tell. He stinks, bad.

Auburn struggling vs. Texas AM’s press, their backcourt does not look good.

Starting to think UNC is going to steal a bid, even though the ACC stinks outside of Duke and Clemson

I think in these out of conference threads the discussion revolves around:

1. acc
2. Big XII
3. sec

4. everyone else

point being, the big 10 is just that boring. an 18-program conference with 5 ranked teams, one of which is wiscy.

the current espn bracketology. for a conference with 11 projected dance partners, there is no discussion about the big 10.

12 sec
11 big ten
8 big 12
4 big east
4 mountain west
3 acc
2 wcc

Texas wins in OT vs Miss St. Helps us as we are battling Miss St for a potential 7 seed.

Baylor also won tonight.

Hate to see it. Need someone to be good enough to beat Duke
Auburn has SEC locked up, overall 1 pretty much locked up, off a win at UK, was due for an off game on the road.
