Jb, you really do see the world only through Dook-covered glasses, don't you?
I saw the game. I saw the replays. They all showed Laettner
deliberately stepping on a player's chest. He shoulda been tossed- period. He surerashell did get off lucky on that one. And.....did Mr. Sportsmanship coaching him ever do anything about it- at that time or post game? Nope. The W was all that mattered to good ol' Coach K.
