Why was he in the game at that point anyway??
Up 12 with 14 seconds
the same reason Henderson was
I agree that he was definitely trying to make hard contact. I bet Roy Williams will be thinking, what the heck was I doing having him in there, later tonight.
Duke was down 12, Henderson had a right to be in.
You dont take your starters up just 12 in the Duke/Carolina series, too many crazy things have happend in the past, even if Duke does suck and couldnt score 12 points in 10 minutes [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] I cannot see how Henderson was going for the ball when Hansborough didn't even have the ball when Henderson KO'd him. And why would you close your eyes and turn your head, wouldnt you need to see where the ball is to have a clue as to how to block it. Why such a hard foul with that much time left when you are getting your [censored] kicked, it makes no sense other than it being a cheap hard foul which it was.
in my opinion that was a hard foul yes but not worthy of getting ejected for!
i agree with LB10 henderson had a right to be in there and hanbrough didn't bottom line!
ok mr LB catcher...
explain to me how dukes starters should be in and and unc shouldnt? like that guy said...to many weird things happen in the duke unc games. i think if the situation was reversed that u all would be saying tyler should be kicked out of all sports period and he couldnt even compete in church league ball.

Why didnt Hansborough have a right to be in the game?
Sounds like Isiah Thomas crying when George Karl was trying not to blow the game so he tells his players to go hurt someone.
Henderson is suspended a game and rightfully so.

That's the most asinine thing I've heard today.
He might have been making an "effort" to go for the block with the other arm, but I think he was definitely leading with his elbow on the contact arm. It looked like a high-elbow drop in wrassling. I'll say this, this is the second time this week that something really dangerous and stupid has happened regarding physical contact and college basketball. I remember seeing a special on Shaq and seeing all the hard contact he got. Basically, he made the statement that if he was going to go through that type of physical punishment because nobody could stop him, he was going to get paid to do it. Look for Hansbrough to leave early. I wouldn't blame him a bit.
Well so much for our dukies... wanting to say Henderson is a good guy and didn't mean harm [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/getsmile.tmp007816300.gif[/img]
hey people, does up 12 points with 14 seconds to go mean anything to you all. It's impossible to score that many points that quick, take your studs out of the game to keep them from getting hurt, any idiot knows that. As far as the elbow goes, I saw two different things from different angles. The first angle looked like he clocked him on purpose, but the second angle showed clearly that he was trying for the block and turned his body when the other duke player was going up too, i don't think it was intentional, don't think he should have gotten ejected but thats the rules i guess.
finally someone sees it like it was thank you squirell!!
Well why didnt Duke take their starters out then? Obviously they were still trying to win, they were still pressing. Roy had a guy at the scorers table getting ready to go in for TH. TH was the shooter so when he missed the free throw, the kid at the scorers table couldnt go in until the next dead ball. Roy is a class act, he wouldnt just try to embarrass duke like that.
how funny...up 13 against VT last year, McRoberts and Paulus finished out the game
Well I'm a Duke fan and I believe that was a cheap shot, I say Henderson was taking out a little steam...
if you will watch the replay the duke player that was behind him had him around the neck which forced him henderson's way, if he would have been able to get the shot off henderson would have never touched him.
IMO if Hanbrough misses any games then Henderson should be supspended for however many games T has to miss. Blatant(sp) cheap shot by another Duke thug.
Just curious, up by that, getting the offensive board, wouldn't the best idea be pulling the ball back out, running clock. Trying to go for the shot is trying to get a bit of extra IMO.
Yeah probably, but in game speed when you grab an offensive board you don't think about that. It wasn't like it bounced outside and a guard grabbed it, he got it right under the basket.
Here ya go, analyze and enjoy.

It definitely looked pretty blatant to me in the replay I saw on ESPN today. Whether he was trying to truly harm Hansborough, I don't know, but I think he was trying to foul him hard, and knew he wasn't making a play on the ball.
That is twice this year that someone has been ejected and suspended for a game because of a little contact with poor little golden boy Tyler.
It was incidental contact.
I guess the Puke (no typo) Blue Devils cant handle SUCKING!!! UNC is the only team in North Carolina!
I guess losing to NC State doesn't count since it was on the road and not at the Dense dome.
It was worth the loss to watch Hansbrough choke back the tears! He looks like my 2 year old with that lip sticking out!

I love all the haters and excuses when Duke losses. Bottom line is...we, UNC, are the ACC champs. Like it or not. As for the call it was flagrent and he deserved to get ejected. Can't wait to see the Blue Devils bow out of the NCAA early.
I bet they bow out of the ACC tourney early also.

Are you a Tarheel alum? What year did you graduate from UNC? What year did you graduate from Burton?
Why does all that matter? I am a Tarheel fan.
I was just wondering, you being from Burton and got the impression you went to UNC. I was just trying to figure out if I knew you based on your screen name and your posting above.
well whether it was on purpose or not hansbrough got what he deserved in my opinion!
Ok...let's try to hurt him because we can't stop him [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]
what did he deserve and why?
i am still curious...what did TH deserve?
hansbrough wasn't going to do a thing when he got up, he got clocked, or got his bell rung, and he jumps up like nothing hurting, he had to be seeing stars....
it was a cheap shot..
When I first saw it I thought it was a cheap shot but even Mr. Hansbrough himself said it wasn't a cheap shot.
