Thats not a brush off. K always does this sort of chest pat thing, usually for opposing players that play really well, but occasionally for coaches that outcoached him. Next time you see Duke play, win or lose, K will do that same thing for the opposing team's best player. Did he hurry off? Absolutely. Remember they had an incident between the Duke staff and the UVA kids last year during the court storm. He is probably ticked at the team, but mostly he's trying to get the hell off the court. There is no issue between him and Gottfried.
Yeah that's what I was seeing too :lol K always does the chest pat thing.Oh I just thought the butt slap was awesome, I don't know wtf ya'll are talking about lol
Trae Jackson from Wisconsin out 6 weeks due to a fractured foot.
Always a problem, those long passes.
That it was. They were calling and reviewing techs like crazy the first half. In the second they just decide to call fouls for breathing.This Kansas-Oklahoma State game is the most foulerrific game ever.
Does Clemson play on TV or do you follow those games on radio?
OK, who had mid-January in the annual "'Coach K should retire' truly101 hot take" pool?
But check this one out
*ahem*
"Sure, Duke is my favorite football team, but I usually pull for someone else in basketball season. They suck"
What, you guys aren't accustomed to the early season peaks and post exam/holiday slumps by now?
What is going on with Duke? Just saw the score over there.
Same as always, teams got better over Christmas. Duke didn't.
Duke actively got worse. Its one thing if the other teams catch up and Duke is still doing what it was doing, but they aren't
Honestly I'm real close to just giving up watching college basketball. I haven't enjoyed it for years. I get real upset when they lose and no enjoyment when they win. I don't see a reason to continue with it.
It'd be real nice if College Basketball weren't an unwatchable mess wouldnt it?

At Louisville next. And it really doesn't get better after that. This team is going to grow up fast or take some more lumps.
What the hell, Miami toying with Duke. Just switched over from the Warriors game. When's the last time Duke was on a two game losing streak? Certainly been years.

truly, as usual, you're being too hard on them.
The freshman are playing hard, they're just not all playing well. Okafor is getting doubled, Duke hasn't spaced well or knocked down shots. Until they figure that out, they're going to hurt. The defense has also regressed, the talk just a week or two ago was how they had figured that out, so it appears they were wrong.
Even keel. These kids are 18-20. I won't speak for you, but I'm a tad older than that, so I can't put too much of my happiness in college kids.
K won't change, he doesn't understand that the M2M defense he likes to employ comes with experience and discipline, things these kids lack, and they do not care. So rather than give them a simpler defensive philosphy, like packing in around the lane and get the rebound, he continues to do the same stupid shit.
Why is Marshall Plumlee 30 feet from the rim on defense WHY? He should never not be in the paint. Why can't K implement a pick n roll play for Okafor? Why is the only solution they have for double teams is a kick out for a bad 3 attempt? How about having the open man cut to the basket? Its the same old stupid shit thats been going on since 11 and its seldom improved. K new the 2010 title would be his last, he'd never have a group of upperclassmen coupled by a draw that favored their style of play in every game except Baylor. Its over, he's done. I just hope Coach Cut can continue the strides he's made with the football team. Need a QB though for next season.

Duke fans might want to get on @laurakeeley timeline right now, because this is Coach K unplugged.
