Ya know for some reason I had it in my head that Redick and Williams were freshmen on the last Duke team that won the championship. I didn't realize it was in 2001. Sucks for them that they never even got them to a championship game, especially with all the "great 1-2 punch" talk we heard for their whole Duke careers.

As a fellow big man, I feel pretty bad for Sheldon Williams he busted his ass on offense the whole tournament, and played pretty good defense only to lose because the rest of his team could not hit anything?:pinch:h:

aka JJ Redick

Thank you for repeating what I've been saying in all these POTY topics. Everyone can hate Duke all they want and call them overrated all they want, but you don't make the sweet-16 four years in a row based on luck and being overhyped.

Hating college players simply because you don't like powerhouses is silly. They're not being paid money, they're not defecting to other teams for stupid reasons (like in a lot of professional leagues), I just don't get it -- how can you hate someone so much for no reason at all... when they're not even your team's rival, you just hate a school being a contender everytime in recent memory?

oh god, why must you always bring this up? we've argued this ad nauseum. are they a contender? are they really? they haven't made it to the final since 2001. you think a contender would be able to do that...

duke is no better than any other of the "top" teams.

Because they are Duke, silly. :D

Seriously some people just hate media darlings like Duke. Take the NE Patriots for example. Before their current run of Super Bowls, they didn't get that much press outside of Boston. When the run started, all we heard was how great the team was. The over saturation of coverage and some of the fans hyperbole just rubs people the wrong way.

Nothing to get upset over.

    • AV2, successor to popular YouTube, Netflix, Amazon codec AV1, has a hard battle ahead

      By Kushan · Posted

      "This transition will take several years so we shouldn't bother doing it at all" is a naive take. This is completely normal for all specifications that cross-cut software, hardware and multiple industries. Look at the PCI specification for another example, consumers barely have PCI-E 5 yet PCI-SIG is working on PCI-E 8. AV2 will take multiple years to get adoption and even then, even a decade from now people will still have older hardware that doesn't support it. That's fine, because the savings still add up as newer devices add the hardware to deal with it. The goal is never to get 100% on the new spec overnight, but to gradually adopt it.

      I named Hitler because he is the de facto anti-semite. But you don't have to hate Jews to be a genocidal maniac. In fact, these days, so called semites are the ones acting in ways that would make Hitler proud.
