Of course his every move is being watched, he's earned that situation by acting like a jack`a-s`s half the time he plays. Frankly I'd love to see a player with the disposition of someone like Charles Oakley smack him into 3rd row whining like a little baby.

A referee should go into each game with absolutely no bias. Their job isn't to keep an eye on certain players - just call it by the book game by game.

I'm a TarHeel fan but Grayson Allen is easily my favorite college basketball player.

Nah...those are two mutually exclusive standpoints.

Will the NBA embrace Allen or consider him a ugly player for his tripping, and other incidents?
Maybe he won't be desired by an NBA team.

What "other incidents"? i dont consider Allen NBA material-perhaps someone will take a chance on him, I dunno. He does have more college points than Jordan does, though


He is already getting the Shaq treatment, in the GT game last week, GT gets a turnover Grayson swipes at the ball and gets called for a flagrant 1 when for anyone else it'd be a normal foul on the floor. Virginia guy elbows him to the face and doesnt get called for a foul...really. The guy did offer to help him up but Gray swiped his hand away..perhaps this is what you meant by other incidents?



Duke as whole gets this treatment because they are Duke and there are so many haters out there. another example, The BC game back in early December.. they called a loose ball foul on Duval that really was a normal foul on the court but it was called a flagrant 1 for some reason with about a 30 seconds to go in the game that sealed it for BC as Duke did not recover after that.

more anti-Duke bias tonight...they can go back and call a flagrant 1 for a hip-check on Allen....hip checking happens multiple times up and down the court. any other player that wouldn't even get reviewed.

Not that big of a deal in itself; only that it served zlich when it came to gaining a "competitive advantage".

Please. Far beyond a hip-check.

I agree the officials were off all night for both teams and I would imagine everyone watching that game would agree; but Allen was just up to his old antics of being a whiney little she-dog. He thought it wouldn't count as tripping someone if he used his butt instead of his usual kicking out. He was wrong.

He also thought he was going to be a hero with that 3 point attempt at the 8 second mark. Wrong again.
