Wasn't Tony Scott a pretty good outside shooter?Our weakness was that if Roe was cold we had no other outside shooters. That team was insane from an athletic standpoint and definitely in my top 10 of bitterness moments with that Elite 8 loss

Z doesn’t go out of the 96 game, we winRaf doesn't get hurt in 86
DC hits the free throws
Sherm doesn't get sick
DC doesn't get hurt
Kenny Anderson joins DC, Owens and Stevie...
Anybody but that Kentucky team in '96
Changing my handle to buzzkill.
Almost as bad as Cincinnati losing Kenyon Martin in their conference tournament.2010 team coasts to a title
2012 team coasts to the championship game
what other 1 seeds lost their starting center right before the tournament? and it happens to us twice in 3 years. bullsheeeit.
He was the main reason we lost to Minnesota. He couldn’t hit anything. The first SU team I remember as a kid.Wasn't Tony Scott a pretty good outside shooter?
Yeah but he didn’t play much at allWasn't Tony Scott a pretty good outside shooter?
The only one I can think of was Cincinnati when they lost Kenyon Martin.2010 team coasts to a title

Ok a hypothetical scenario...
Would you swap Warrick 2003 for Triche 1987 for the very last minute of these two games?
Do you think Hak would have blocked Keith Smart's shot but Triche would have let Michael Lee's shot fly (and if so would it have gone in)?
Fun game great great crowdListen to that crowd.
The St. John's game at the MSG when Fab came back was one of my favorite games that I've attended. The Garden was sold out and we had 75% of the crowd and we curb stomped SJU. Up 20 late with a fast break dunk that blew the roof off. Their fans were so dejected.
Was that the game that Douglas had the flu or DC had a sore back.Me too! But that Illinois team was also loaded - Anderson, Battle, Gill, Liberty were all great. We only had Thompson, Coleman, Owens, Douglas, Roe, Johnson. My god, how did we lose with all of those guys?

2010 was Arinze2012 was arinzes injury right? 2010? Any of you retired folks mind giving a synopsis of what went down/players on the team(s) to the memory challenged amongst us?
2010 was unfortunate. 2012 Nancy cantor should have let Fab play2010 team coasts to a title

Agree. 2012 was Kentucky's year but 2010 was ours. I am not usually one of those "we would have one" people because so much could happen but that legitimately was not a good Duke team. That was our chance for #2.
Oh yeah how could I forget 2012, was there in Boston witnessing that theft first hand. Never been more pissed at an athletic event2010 was Arinze
2012 was Fab Melo suspension / getting hosed by the refs against ohio state.
Syracuse fans overhype Onuaku because it gives us an excuse for bowing out of the tourney. He wasn't that great Rick Jackson was better. His loss didn't help but him not getting injured wasn't some kind of guarantee of a championship.2010 team coasts to a title

Did shots w DC after the game at local west
Had better seat than Danny Ainge at that game

Fab Melo was much more important to his team and his loss in 2012 had a much bigger impact.
