and in particular his "buddy" John Thompson. From Pete Thamel's article. I freaking Love this!
Things turned for Syracuse after it hit its low point at Georgetown. The antics of Thompson Jr. offered motivation, as Boeheim said of his throat slash: "We don't do that. I don't do that." The bitterness lingered in the locker room after that game.
"It's great to win here on their floor and go to the Final Four after they beat us, the things they said and their coaches said, it's just great," he said. "I think that they spoke too soon, and we're here having a good time."
