BTW, it wouldn't have mattered with Chris Webber. We had him double-teamed in the corner, Heels up by 2, just a few seconds left. I like our chances!

Tony, I agree it would not have mattered. It would also have been a moot point if the officials called one of the two travels he had before he asked for the timeout. One of them was "at least" 2 steps. I am a Duke fan, but I was rooting for NC that night (ACC fan).
