There definitely was a lack of attention (see Jah's dunk miss and a few careless passes). Maybe you have a different definition of "nice, comfortable lead", but when I see 3 Freshman on the floor (and a young team overall) that is all-of-a-sudden lacking a certain edge and/or fire, it can be concerning, and to me, they were blowing their lead.

Sorry you disagree (and I guess somebody said I'm losing my "man card" WTF that means lol). And DH, I appreciate your opinion and I am not trying to be combative either, it just gets old when some people here act as if we ALL should think Duke is invincible. They are not (as is any team in NCAA D1 ball).

Whoa hoss. No one is saying they're invincible, but this team has proven themselves this year with all they've done and dealt with. I understand we're a little gunshy because a few underachieving teams lost to some underdogs with a Napoleon complex, but this team is good. All we've heard about i what they can't do and how easy it is to beat them. Well only 4 teams have found it "easy" to beat Duke this season. This team has an iron will. I'm good with how they are progressing through this tournament.

I am not telling you how to think. For God's sake, I put a disclaimer in my post (which never used to be necessary). I am discussing. I don't agree so I'm giving my reasons why. Simple as that.

Nobody said they are invincible . Jesus dude, you're killing me. We just said this team would not lose the first game to Robert Fkn Morris. And even though it's over and we've won by almost 30 freaking points, you're still arguing we almost blew it. It's the only game I've ever made light of here, was trying to lighten the mood and relax everyone from being so dang gunshy from first rounds. Man some of you can't recognize playing around if it was sitting on your face.
