Along with Wojo slapping the floor a couple decades ago...

Hockey lines, man. I played on a team that did that. It was fun.

It'll be suicide to try that against us.

triple dog dare them to do that feb 1st.

K can't find a team of 5 players he likes?

 

[gilardino]

one of my know it all friends says its good for duke to that cause his idol coach K said it will make them mentally tough and they will be better prepared come March.

Who was the team that pulled that in the ncaa many moons ago? I remember they pulled an upset and it was really fun to watch them play as the 2nd unit just pressed b*lls out for 5 minutes, then got pulled as a unit.

I want to say it was Tulane, but all I can recall is green uni's.

They seemed to be playing a very helter skelter "in your face" full court defense which can be very tiresome. Trying to keep fresh legs in the game is the reason for it I assume.

Duke was slapping the floor long before Wojo. He was just the most annoying about it.

In the 90's Tulane did rotate in a lot of guys at once and the nickname for the backups was The Posse

I know UNC did that many years ago, but only for one or two seasons. I think they nicknamed them the Shock Troops, IIRC.

North Carolina back under Dean Smith used to do that. They were so deep they could run out a "blue" team and a "white" team, 5 at a time. I think that's the lingo they used to use back when they would do that.

I like it.

Dean Smith's Blue Team 1974-75 SU beat in Eastern Regionals.Toomy Legarde,Walter Davis,Mitch Kupchak,Phil Ford,John Kuester not bad for a 1st team (All played in the NBA)
